eSafe Cyber Security and CyberLion Partner to Expand Tech Protection Across Southern Europe
Athens, Sunday, 2 August 2026.
In late July 2026, eSafe Cyber Security and Israel-based CyberLion announced a strategic distribution partnership across Greece, Cyprus, Malta, and Italy. This expansion addresses rising enterprise digital threats in emerging European cybersecurity hubs, providing specialized software and technical support to meet critical regional security demands.
Strategic Distribution Agreement
On 30 July 2026, eSafe Cyber Security and CyberLion Ltd. formalized a Value Added Distribution (VAD) partnership to expand cybersecurity solutions across Southern Europe [1]. This agreement enables CyberLion’s software portfolio to reach enterprises across Greece, Cyprus, Malta, and Italy [1]. The collaboration targets the growing demand for cybersecurity infrastructure in regional tech hubs, reflecting a broader trend of cross-border investments aimed at mitigating digital threats [1].
Operational Roles and Portfolio
eSafe Cyber Security will leverage its regional offices to provide technical consulting, implementation services, and ongoing support [1]. CyberLion contributes a portfolio including vendors like DigiCert, Dashlane, and ConnectWise to the arrangement [1]. Ricardo Resnik, VP of Business Development at CyberLion, noted the partnership leverages eSafe’s trusted customer relationships to introduce their portfolio into these markets [1]. Panicos Georgiou, CEO at eSafe, emphasized the role extends beyond distribution to include enablement and maximizing value for partners [1].
Regional Cybersecurity Landscape
This partnership aligns with Greece’s emergence as a European cybersecurity hub, a trend highlighted by international investments in late 2024 [2]. For instance, NVISO expanded operations in Greece in December 2024, citing a skilled workforce and favorable regulatory framework [2]. Enterprise Greece supports such initiatives through the “Greece 2.0” funding program and tax incentives to ensure the country remains a top destination for cutting-edge investments [2]. The global cost of cyberattacks remains a primary driver for such security expansions, estimated at $10 trillion annually [2].
