Partnership will accelerate the adoption of the Huntress Agentic Security Platform in the region, making enterprise-grade cyber protection more accessible amid escalating cybercrime
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA – May 5, 2026 — Huntress today announces a new distribution partnership with Dicker Data, the leading technology distributor across Australia and New Zealand, to deliver the Huntress Agentic Security Platform and AI-Centric SOC to thousands of resellers and managed service providers (MSPs), bringing enterprise-level cyber defences to businesses of all sizes throughout the ANZ region.
Organisations across ANZ are facing a rapidly evolving threat landscape driven by the acceleration and adoption of AI by threat actors. Business Email Compromise (BEC) remains the leading threat to Australian organisations according to the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD), while RMM abuse, a key vector in living-off-the-land attacks, skyrocketed by 277% according to the latest Huntress Threat Report. Yet, many businesses across the region continue to operate without the necessary tools and expertise to defend against these increasing threats.
Dicker Data was selected as Huntress’ preferred distribution partner in the region for their ability to directly address this gap by meeting partners where they already operate. With deep knowledge of the ANZ market and an established network of value-added resellers and managed service providers, Dicker Data is uniquely positioned to scale the distribution of Huntress solutions across the region, helping protect more businesses from the growing threat of cybercrime.
“There is an urgent need to arm ANZ businesses with security capabilities that were once only available to large enterprises. With their deep cybersecurity expertise, partner reach in the ANZ market, and commitment to the channel, Dicker Data is the ideal partner to accelerate that mission. Together, we are making enterprise-level protection a reality for every organisation — no matter the size,” said Reece Appleton, Regional Director, APAC, at Huntress.
The partnership also deepens Huntress’ strategic alliance with Microsoft, giving ANZ resellers and MSPs operating within the Microsoft ecosystem a trusted, integrated path to the Huntress Agentic Security Platform and AI-centric SOC through Dicker Data’s strong Microsoft practice. Together, Huntress and Dicker Data help simplify Microsoft license management for partners and their customers, reducing administrative burden, streamlining delivery, and making it easier to monitor and protect the businesses that rely on those environments every day.
Huntress combats these threats through its award-winning Agentic Platform that includes:
Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) for continuous monitoring to detect and stop threats at the endpoint.
Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) for protecting identities against compromise, takeover, and abuse.
Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) and Endpoint Security Posture Management (ESPM) to proactively secure endpoints and identities.
Managed SIEM for broader threat visibility and faster detection, investigation, and response across the environment.
Security Awareness Training (SAT) to turn employees into a stronger line of defense against phishing, social engineering, and other human-targeted threats.
24/7 AI-Centric SOC - Huntress’ elite team of expert analysts and researchers who leverage AI and work around the clock to stop attacks before they cause harm.
"Cybersecurity has become a fundamental requirement for modern businesses, and our partners need solutions that are both powerful and easy to deliver to customers," said Pennie Stevens, General Manager, Software, at Dicker Data. "Huntress brings a unique and proven approach to protecting organisations from today’s rapidly evolving threats, and we’re excited to extend that capability to our partner community. By combining Huntress’ expertise with Dicker Data’s deep partner enablement and support, we’re helping our partners stay focused on winning more business while delivering the security outcomes their customers depend on."
