Cyolo raises US$60 million Series B round, will offer greater visibility, traceability, control to digital transformation initiatives

Access company for industrial enterprises Cyolo announced Tuesday a partnership with TD SYNNEX, global distributor and solutions aggregator for the IT ecosystem. The combination of TD SYNNEX’s solution aggregation capabilities and Cyolo’s highly disruptive, distributed secure remote access platform will lead partners to new service lines of revenue.

The partnership empowers TD SYNNEX and Cyolo partners to tap into the increased enterprise demand for secure remote access in operational technology (OT), critical infrastructure, cyber-physical environments, and their corresponding buying centers.

The partnership with TD SYNNEX serves as the cornerstone of the Cyolo PRO (Privilege Remote Operations) launch. The recently launched Cyolo PRO Platform allows service providers, integrators, OT, IT personnel, and other third parties to securely access and safely operate applications, devices and systems in the most critical environments.

Cyolo PRO takes secure remote access to new levels with its distributed architecture and its converged security stack capabilities. Cyolo is cloud-routed and cloud-managed without being cloud-hosted. Unlike current technologies such as VPN and SASE that provide users with full access to the network, Cyolo PRO enables secure and privileged access by connecting robustly verified identities to applications with persistent authorization.

“The strategic nature of our TD SYNNEX relationship is a pivotal step in realizing our commitment to delivering future-ready, safe, and secure privilege access solutions to the massive industrial market,” said Cyolo’s EVP Corporate Development and OT GM Joe O’Donnell. “Through this collaboration, TD SYNNEX’s partners can bring Cyolo PRO to a broader range of OT, IT, and cyber=physical stakeholders. This increases safety, security and accelerates operational agility.”

O’Donnell added that the solution’s capability to fit into existing architectures without extensive change management processes is critical in OT environments, as even the slightest network and security change can yield significant consequences.

This global partnership enables thousands of TD SYNNEX integrators, VARs, MSSPs, and carriers to provide next-generation SRA/RPAM (Remote Privilege Access Management) services to their respective customers. Cyolo PRO enables TD SYNNEX partners to address the fast-growing OT and cyber-physical markets by focusing on crucial elements that increase their clients’ operational agility, improve customers’ security, and provide safe yet swift implementations with the lowest cost of change.

“TD SYNNEX is committed to uniting IT solutions that deliver business outcomes today and unlock growth for the future,” said Cheryl Day, VP Vendor Acquisition and Global Solutions at TD SYNNEX. “With Cyolo added to our vast portfolio of vendor partners, we’re able to enrich the breadth and depth of our offerings so customers can do great things with technology.”
