Stellar Cyber launched its Open Cybersecurity Alliance based on its award-winning Open XDR platform. This groundbreaking initiative streamlines security operations, improves interoperability, and enhances threat detection and response for enterprises and MSSPs.

The new alliance challenges the idea that in order to be effective, ecosystems must be built on proprietary data or a closed model, with a "members-only" approach advocating for a specific data format. The Open Cybersecurity Alliance takes a completely different approach by enabling seamless integration and interoperability using open application programming interfaces (APIs) between Stellar Cyber's AI-powered open security operations platform and other best-in-class technology solutions used in enterprise security today. The Stellar Cyber Open Cybersecurity Alliance's "Better Together" architecture empowers customers to easily unify and manage their multi-vendor security environments, supercharging their security operations.

The newly launched ecosystem already features integrations with top security platforms across many different categories, including endpoint detection and response (EDR), identity and access management (IAM), privileged access security (PAS), secure access service edge (SASE), next-generation firewall, email security, vulnerability management (VM), cloud security, infrastructure as a service (IaaS), and software as a service (SAAS), and more.

Global Top 250 MSSPs Support Open Cybersecurity

"In today's fast-moving threat landscape, security teams can't afford to be locked into proprietary ecosystems that limit their flexibility. Stellar Cyber's commitment to open APIs through the Open Cybersecurity Alliance means we can seamlessly integrate the best security tools for our customers-without roadblocks or vendor lock-in. This level of openness accelerates threat detection and response, making security operations more effective and scalable." said Trevor Smith, Executive Vice President of Brite.

"Closed security ecosystems create blind spots and slow down response times-something no security team can afford. With Stellar Cyber's Open Cybersecurity Alliance Program, we can unify best-in-class technologies into a single, cohesive security operation. Open APIs allow us to build tailored solutions that fit each customer's unique needs, instead of being forced into a one-size-fits-all approach dictated by proprietary alliances." said Joe Morin, Chief Executive Officer of CyFlare.

Breaking Free from Siloed Security Tools

The modern security landscape is becoming increasingly complex, with organizations managing an average of 70+ security tools. This can often be overwhelming and burdensome-especially for organizations and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) handling multiple different environments. This intricate web of siloed, disparate security solutions can leave security analysts overwhelmed and burnt out and slow down response times, making organizations highly vulnerable to cyberattacks.

Unify Your Entire Technology Stack via Stellar Cyber's Alliance Ecosystem

The Stellar Cyber Open Cybersecurity Alliance Program directly solves this challenge by creating a dynamic, open ecosystem of best-in-class cybersecurity solutions that are easily managed through Stellar Cyber's AI-powered open security operations platform. By openly integrating with best-in-class solutions across all aspects of the security stack, customers can add speed and scale to their security operations with increased visibility, more accurate threat correlation, and better response times via a unified, easy-to-use technology alliance ecosystem.

"It takes a true multivendor effort to prevent threats from penetrating the defenses of organizations, as long as the tools aren't siloed off and disconnected. We see a massive difference for organizations that embrace an openly integrated ecosystem to ensure all of their security platforms work in concert compared to those still managing each product independently, which usually slows down their teams and weakens their security posture," said Andrew Homer, Vice President of Alliances at Stellar Cyber. "The Stellar Cyber Open Cybersecurity Alliance Program helps organizations add tremendous speed and scale to their security efforts, easily strengthening their defense against today's latest threats."
