Avit, network integrator and managed security services provider, was named Partner of the Year for the third time by Cisco Netherlands. In addition, Avit received the award of Security Partner of the Year 2024.
Each year Cisco in the Netherlands presents awards to partners who have achieved significant growth in specific areas or have distinguished themselves in the market in a unique way. The awards highlight the successful partnership between Avit and Cisco and recognize Avit's commitment to innovation and digital resilience.
Security Partner of the Year
This is the first time Avit has received the Security Partner of the Year award. In recent years, Avit has invested heavily to further strengthen its position as a managed security services provider. Last summer, Avit became the first Cisco Gold partner to achieve the XDR (Extended Detection and Response) specialization. An innovative enterprise solution to more effectively detect, investigate and respond to advanced attacks.
In addition to making businesses digitally resilient, Avit also focuses on creating a cyber-secure world for everyone, starting with the youngest generations. Together with Hackshield, an innovative educational game, children learn about the possibilities and risks of the digital world. This initiative aligns with Avits ESG policy, which focuses on making a positive social impact.

Avit was named Partner of the Year Netherlands, as it was in 2020 and 2022. The Partner of the Year award recognizes Avits partnership with Cisco. "We are extremely proud of these two awards. They are a confirmation of our long and successful partnership with Cisco and the energy we put into developing secure and innovative solutions together.
