Renaissance and Brandefense Announce Strategic Partnership

Renaissance, Ireland’s leading value-added distributor, has announced a strategic partnership with Brandefense, a global leader in digital risk protection and external threat intelligence. This collaboration will introduce Brandefense’s advanced threat intelligence solutions to the Irish market, equipping organisations with the tools to proactively detect, assess, and mitigate cyber risks before they escalate.

Brandefense delivers a comprehensive suite of digital risk protection services, including Dark Web Monitoring, Brand Protection, Phishing Detection and Takedown, Attack Surface Management, and Threat Intelligence. Designed to provide real-time insights into emerging threats, the platform empowers businesses to stay ahead of cybercriminals by uncovering risks that often go unnoticed—whether they stem from the deep and dark web, leaked credentials, or fraudulent brand impersonation.

In addition to these capabilities, Brandefense’s Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) and External Attack Surface Management (EASM) modules play a critical role in securing modern enterprises. The TPRM module enables organisations to assess and monitor the cyber risks posed by vendors, suppliers, and other external partners – ensuring that thirdparty relationships do not become the weak link in their security posture. Meanwhile, the EASM module provides continuous visibility into an organisation’s external digital footprint, identifying exposed assets, misconfigurations, and potential entry points before cybercriminals can exploit them. Together, these modules enhance an organisation’s ability to anticipate and mitigate security threats beyond its traditional perimeter.

By leveraging Renaissance’s deep expertise and expansive partner network, this partnership will enable Irish MSPs, MSSPs, and enterprises to strengthen their cybersecurity defences without the need for extensive in-house resources. As cyber threats continue to evolve, the ability to identify and neutralise risks before they cause harm is becoming essential for organisations of all sizes.

Michael Conway, Director of Renaissance, commented on the partnership: “Cyber threats extend far beyond traditional IT environments – organisations must now protect their brands, their customers, and their reputations. Brandefense’s intelligence-driven approach brings crucial visibility into external risks, ensuring that Irish businesses can proactively defend themselves against emerging threats. Through this partnership, we are bringing world-class digital risk protection solutions to the Irish market at a time when they are needed most.”

Hakan Uzun, CEO of Brandefense, added: “Today’s cybercriminals operate in the shadows of the internet, exploiting blind spots that most businesses are unaware of until it’s too late. Our mission is to shine a light on these threats and provide organisations with the intelligence they need to take action before an attack occurs. By partnering with Renaissance, we are confident in our ability to empower Irish businesses with the insights and tools required to strengthen their cybersecurity posture.”


The Renaissance and Brandefense partnership represents a major step in enhancing cybersecurity resilience across Ireland. This alliance underscores the increasing need for proactive threat intelligence, enabling businesses to stay secure in an ever-evolving digital landscape.
