QBS Software is expanding its European cybersecurity portfolio through a new distribution agreement with Nord Security, giving the distributor’s MSP and reseller partners access to NordLayer, NordPass and other business security products.

European MSPs gain new route to market with Nord Security

QBS Software will make Nord Security’s business solution available to its network of reseller and managed service provider (MSP) partners across Europe.

Nord Security’s cybersecurity solutions include: 

  • NordLayer, a toggle-ready network security platform, 
  • NordPass, a password manager
  • NordLayer Browser, an enterprise-focused secure browser 
  • NordStellar, a threat exposure intelligence platform 

The solutions will now combine with QBS Software’s pan-European reach, local market expertise, and channel-first approach.

“As cybercriminals weaponize AI to automate attacks, the threat landscape is evolving faster than ever,” said Aivaras Artiškevičius, channel sales director for the EMEA and APAC regions at Nord Security.

“At Nord Security, our mission is to help organizations strengthen their security posture and resilience against modern cyber threats, and partnering with QBS Software allows us to expand our reach across Europe through an experienced distributor with strong local relationships and deep channel expertise. Together, we are enabling partners to deliver trusted security solutions that meet the evolving needs of modern organizations,” Artiškevičius added.

QBS builds out cybersecurity distribution strategy

This move comes as QBS Software has made a point to expand its cybersecurity portfolio as customer demand grows.

“Cybersecurity remains one of the fastest-growing priorities for businesses across Europe. By welcoming Nord Security to our vendor ecosystem, we are giving our partners access to an innovative, globally recognized cybersecurity brand that perfectly complements our portfolio,” said Jordan Travers, the group head of security at QBS Software.

“Together, we will help resellers and MSPs accelerate growth while delivering greater security and value to their customers,” he adds.
