Corero Network Security (AIM: CNS, OTCQX: DDOSF) recently announced a strategic partnership with Atlantic Data Security (ADS) aimed at strengthening enterprise uptime and reducing cyber risk through enhanced, real-time DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) protection. This alliance expands Corero’s partner ecosystem and boosts its North American presence, particularly across critical infrastructure sectors.
Atlantic Data Security has established deep expertise across energy, bio-pharmaceutical, financial services, SLED (state, local, education), and manufacturing sectors. Based on the East Coast and actively growing in other key U.S. markets, ADS was looking for a partner to augment its managed service offerings, providing clients with more effective tools to handle the pressure of maintaining continuous business operations amidst mounting cyber threats. Corero’s adaptive, comprehensive DDoS defense solutions matched ADS’s goal to help organizations stay secure, connected, and resilient in a challenging environment.
Carl Herberger, CEO of Corero Network Security, highlighted the importance of reliability in modern business management, noting that “keeping services available is critical” and that resilience is a rising priority under increasing operational pressure. He expressed pride in working with a partner that maintains a strong customer-first approach.
Under this new partnership, Atlantic Data Security will introduce Corero’s SmartWall ONE™ solution, which delivers robust defense across Layer 3 through 7 of the network stack. Alongside this, Corero’s innovative CORE platform will provide behavior-based access control along with detailed traffic insights. These technologies enhance ADS’s ability to design and manage secure, always-on environments, providing customers with better visibility and measurable value. John Overbeck, VP of Sales at ADS, emphasized Corero’s clear business case for DDoS protection and more advanced capabilities compared to older methods, which aligns with their customers’ needs.
Corero Network Security’s technology specializes in automatic detection and mitigation of DDoS threats both external and internal, focusing on complex edge and subscriber networks to ensure internet service availability. Corero is headquartered in London and has operational centers in Massachusetts and Edinburgh. The company’s growing partnerships in North America reflect its channel strategy focused on long-term cybersecurity outcomes through trusted integrators.
Founded in the early 1990s in Wethersfield, Connecticut, Atlantic Data Security began as a small operation run from a family basement and has since built a team of over 40 engineers. ADS is recognized for working closely with a range of clients from businesses to government entities across North America, leveraging top-tier cybersecurity solutions to anticipate risks and tailor proactive security measures.
This partnership strengthens both companies’ foothold in a world where cyber threats keep evolving. It offers enterprises in critical infrastructure sectors a more effective way to protect essential services, maintain uptime, and minimize disruption due to DDoS attacks. Both Corero and ADS bring complementary strengths: Corero’s technology-driven DDoS defense and online availability expertise, combined with ADS’s client service history and sector-specific knowledge.
As cyber risks continue to increase, businesses face significant challenges in balancing operational continuity with security. By combining forces, Corero Network Security and Atlantic Data Security provide managed service solutions that not only defend against current threats but also support ongoing adaptability and strategic resilience for clients.
By working together, Corero and ADS are delivering more than just protection; they are helping organizations build confidence to stay online and productive in an unpredictable cyber landscape.
