06 November 2024 – Trustwave, a global leader in cybersecurity and managed security services, has achieved Microsoft FastTrack Ready partner status for Microsoft 365 and been named a Microsoft Verified Managed Extended Detection and Response (MXDR) solution provider for the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. This recognition emphasises Trustwave’s commitment to enhancing cybersecurity outcomes for businesses across Australia and the broader APAC region, supporting seamless integration and optimisation of Microsoft cloud solutions. 

Jason Whyte, General Manager Asia Pacific, Trustwave, said, “Achieving Microsoft FastTrack Ready partner status in the APAC region is a testament to Trustwave’s relentless focus on delivering value to our clients. This partnership gives businesses in Australia and the surrounding APAC markets access to a bespoke onboarding experience, coupled with our industry-leading security offerings that help safeguard their operations.” 

Trustwave’s inclusion in the Microsoft FastTrack program means it is now authorised to assist clients in maximising the potential of Microsoft 365, with a focus on security, productivity, and ease of use. As part of the Microsoft Cloud Partner Program, Trustwave can provide end-to-end onboarding and migration services, helping businesses navigate the transition to the cloud successfully while maintaining strong security postures. 

In addition to being a FastTrack Ready partner, Trustwave is also recognised as a Microsoft Verified MXDR solution provider. Trustwave works with Microsoft 365 Defender and Microsoft Sentinel seamlessly, ensuring businesses receive comprehensive protection backed by Microsoft’s expertise. The verification recognises Trustwave’s advanced capabilities in offering round-the-clock protection, including proactive threat hunting, investigation, and remediation. 

Grant Hutchons, Solution Engineering Director for Asia Pacific, said, “Trustwave’s MXDR solution extends security beyond traditional detection systems, offering clients greater visibility and control across multiple threat vectors. This protection is critical for businesses across Australia and APAC, where cyberattacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated.” 

Trustwave now has numerous clients we are already working with on MXDR, Accelerators, and optimising E5 licensing. Trustwave originally qualified globally for the Fast Track program in September 2023, and since then, we have scaled up significantly in APAC, rolling out our Microsoft Security catalogue of services.
