DUO adds Silverfort to its vendor line-up.

DUO, the leading distributor of cybersecurity solutions, has announced its appointment as the distributor for Silverfort in New Zealand.


New Zealand-based distributor of cybersecurity solutions DUO has announced the addition of Silverfort to its line-up of best-in-class vendors.

Silverfort’s Unified Identity Protection platform enforces secure authentication and access policies across corporate networks, industrial networks, and cloud environments. This includes sensitive IT and OT systems that were previously considered “unprotectable”. 

Silverfort enables businesses to implement Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Risk-Based Authentication (RBA), Zero Trust policies, and holistic visibility across all sensitive systems, without requiring any agents, proxies, or code changes. This includes homegrown and legacy systems, remote admin tools such as Remote PowerShell, file systems, IT infrastructure, SCADA and other operational servers, engineering workstations, HMIs, IoT devices, machine-to-machine access, and more.

Silverfort’s solution natively integrates with most existing Identity and Access Management (IAM) solutions, extending secure access controls such as Risk-Based Authentication and MFA across all on-premises and cloud resources. This allows businesses to maintain their existing IAM systems while benefiting from unified visibility across all users resources, and protocols.

“We’re delighted to be working with Damon, Phil and the wider Silverfort team in NZ,” said David Long, GM Duo & Sektor Cyber.

“Their solution has received global recognition for its ability to enhance security posture, streamline IAM, and support legacy applications, making it an ideal solution for businesses of all sizes and industries, including those with complex IT and OT environments,” he said. “Silverfort provides a cost-effective solution to increase security posture and extract maximum value out of existing identity investments.”

Silverfort recently won the coveted Zero Trust Champion Award from Microsoft at RSA Conference (RSAC) in San Francisco.
