The exponentially growing CYBERShark channel program is run by industry veteran Phil Rugani.

"CYBERShark provides a golden opportunity for MSPs to enter the mid-market with an affordable, white-label SIEM platform and we've roven that position by signing a record number of providers in such a short amount of time," said Dale Cline, CEO of BlackStratus. "Both the MSP and SMB market have been asking for a product like CYBERShark for quite some time and we're very excited to deliver a cloud-based security and compliance platform that greatly benefits both markets." MSPs can white label CYBERShark and provide world class security and compliance managed services to their customers and grow their business. CYBERShark empowers MSPs to build a sustainable managed services business without the need to invest in expensive infrastructure, buy expensive hardware appliances and recruit expensive security analysts. By simply sending their end-customer event log data to the advanced CYBERShark cloud, MSPs will receive a white-labeled portal view of their customers' compliance reports and security posture complete with step-by-step remediation to resolve security incidents and malicious activity.
