Press release

Heimlane signs Feeder, its first distributor, for the Heimlane Prism cybersecurity platform

Heimlane, a French cybersecurity vendor, announces its first distribution agreement with Feeder, a French value-added distributor specializing in the channel.

01

A strategic agreement

Feeder will sell the Heimlane Prism platform to its network of resellers and MSPs, starting in France.

02

A 100% indirect approach

Heimlane does not sell direct: its platform is designed to be distributed only through a network of partners.

03

A sovereign platform

Heimlane Prism brings together password management and privileged access management, hosted in France and Germany.

Heimlane has signed its first distribution agreement with Feeder, a French value-added distributor specializing in the channel. Feeder will sell the Heimlane Prism platform to its network of resellers and MSPs, with France as the priority market and an extension to Morocco, Senegal and the Middle East through its presence in Dubai.

The privileged access management market is growing 21 to 24% per year1, yet SMEs and mid-market companies remain largely under-equipped. France’s transposition of the NIS2 directive will nonetheless bring the number of entities subject to reinforced security obligations to around 15,0002. This is the segment Heimlane addresses.

For its partners, this removes any conflict with the vendor, whereas incumbents too often display a channel strategy for show while keeping the DNA of a very direct model.

This 100% indirect model makes the distributor a decisive amplifier. Heimlane chose Feeder for its command of local resellers and MSPs, and for its ability to support them in a market that does not always share this channel culture. The platform covers two challenges: protecting credentials and controlling access to sensitive systems, while the vast majority of incidents involve a privileged account.

Vault

The password manager is built on a zero-knowledge architecture to protect sensitive credentials.

Realm

The privileged access management (PAM) solution governs and records the sessions of the most sensitive accounts.

Everything is hosted in France and Germany, in an end-to-end data sovereignty approach.

“We created Heimlane with the conviction that partners deserve to be treated better by the vendors in this market. Our model is indirect by design: we do not sell direct and we never will. We locked the product down so that it is technically impossible. Feeder knows French resellers and MSPs from the inside; the success of its partners will be our shared success.”

Laurent Gentil Founder of Heimlane

“Our catalog favors sovereign French and European vendors. Heimlane fills a real gap: a French platform covering both password management and privileged access management, two needs our partners raise with us constantly. Its 100% indirect model, written into the product itself, is rare in this market; it is exactly the kind of vendor we want to build with.”

Claude-Michel Pageault President of Feeder
