Munich, Germany: CloudSEK, an AI-native predictive cyber intelligence company, has announced a strategic partnership with AERAsec, an established German cybersecurity specialist with over 25 years of experience, to strengthen its presence in Germany and expand its reach across the DACH region.
Under the agreement, AERAsec joins CloudSEK as a Value-Added Reseller (VAR) and technology-focused channel partner. The partnership combines CloudSEK's predictive cyber intelligence capabilities with AERAsec's established customer relationships across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, along with its expertise in cybersecurity consulting, solution integration, and technical support.
The collaboration will initially focus on mid-sized and large enterprises in Germany, particularly in manufacturing, financial services, healthcare, technology, and critical infrastructure, where expanding digital footprints, complex supply chains, and regulatory requirements are increasing the need for proactive cybersecurity.
From External Risk Visibility to Predictive Attack Intelligence
At the centre of the partnership is CloudSEK's AI-native platform, which brings together Digital Risk Protection (XVigil), External Attack Surface Management (BeVigil), AI Attack Surface Monitoring (AIVigil), Supply Chain Risk Monitoring (SVigil) and Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI). Its attack path intelligence layer - Nexus AI - correlates signals from all five modules to reveal how attackers could chain exposures into attack paths.
Traditional CTI and EASM tools tend to produce isolated alerts. CloudSEK instead gives security teams a prioritised view of the attack paths most relevant to their organisation, so they can act on what matters and disrupt threats before they are exploited.
Through AERAsec, German enterprises will gain access to the full CloudSEK platform. AERAsec’s technical expertise will help them integrate these capabilities into existing security environments and turn threat intelligence into practical risk mitigation measures.
Leadership Perspectives
"Germany is central to our DACH growth strategy, and our focus is on building partnerships that deliver real technical and business value to customers. With over 25 years of cybersecurity experience, strong enterprise relationships, and proven integration capabilities, AERAsec is well-positioned to bring CloudSEK's technology to German organisations,” said Oliver Ott, Regional Sales Director DACH, CloudSEK.
Through Nexus AI, we are moving beyond traditional threat monitoring to predictive attack intelligence, connecting external risk signals to identify potential attack paths before they can be exploited. This partnership will help bring that capability closer to customers through a trusted local security specialist, added Oliver Ott.
"CloudSEK impressed us with its innovative technology and its approach to identifying cyber threats at an early stage. The combination of powerful Cyber Threat Intelligence and External Attack Surface Management enables organizations to better understand digital risks and respond to them proactively. We are delighted about this partnership, as it allows us to deliver real added value to our customers and strategically strengthen their cybersecurity posture," said Bernd Ochsmann, CTO of AERAsec Network Services and Security GmbH.
Strengthening CloudSEK’s Presence in Germany
The partnership is part of CloudSEK's strategy to build a network of technically capable partners that can independently position, demonstrate, integrate, and support its solutions.
Both companies will initially focus on sales and technical enablement, joint customer engagements, product demonstrations, and proof-of-concept (POC) activities. Customer workshops, webinars, and targeted marketing campaigns may follow as part of their joint go-to-market strategy.
While Germany remains the immediate priority, the partnership also supports CloudSEK's broader expansion across the DACH region.
