New Partnership Focuses on APAC Region with Plans for Global Expansion

SINGAPORE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#ChannelwatchTowr, the leading Continuous Automated Red Teaming platform provider, today announced a partnership with Orange Business, a global network and digital integrator, to bring the watchTowr Platform onboard as a key External Attack Surface Management (EASM) solution for strategic customers across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. This partnership will reinforce cybersecurity solutions offered through the Group’s Orange Cyberdefense subsidiary.


“Today’s channel excels at providing services that help detect breaches and respond to attacks. However, there’s significant white space in preventing attacks,” said Elvina Liow, VP, APAC, watchTowr. “That’s precisely what watchTowr offers: a platform to identify and validate exposures in customers’ attack surface before breaches happen. We also work closely with partners to support customers in effective remediation efforts. By combining the power of our platform with Orange’s deep expertise in managed security services, we can deliver unmatched value to our customers, helping them strengthen their security postures.”

watchTowr will work with Orange Business to further expand its presence in the APAC region and globally. Orange Business will leverage its extensive value-added advisory and managed services in conjunction with its cybersecurity expertise secured by Orange Cyberdefense to accelerate the adoption of the watchTowr platform among its target enterprise customers.

Built by offensive security experts and backed by real-world research, the watchTowr Continuous Automated Red Teaming platform delivers true attack surface visibility across known and unknown assets and helps defenders quickly validate weaknesses and exposures before attacks occur.

“watchTowr is redefining how organizations approach attack surface management,” said Philip Lee, Head of Security – APAC, Orange Business. “Unlike legacy approaches that deliver ineffective audits or inaccurate assessments, the watchTowr Platform continuously validates ways hackers can gain access to a company’s systems. Since it’s fully external and agentless, it can be up and running in our clients’ networks within hours, delivering rapid value.”
