Splunk .conf24: Exciting Opportunities Ahead for Channel Partners and MSSPs



Splunk, in partnership with Cisco, is set to launch new products and make significant announcements at their .conf24 event happening from June 11-14 at The Venetian in Las Vegas. The event will feature educational sessions, keynotes, and interactive experiences that will showcase their unified security and observability platform. Key players in the Splunk world will be interviewed by MSSP Alert, who will be present at the sessions.

During the event, leaders from Splunk will take the stage alongside key customers like Fannie Mae, Progressive, and United Airlines to unveil security and observability product innovations and celebrate customer success stories. On Tuesday, attendees will hear from Gary Steele and Chuck Robbins, president and CEO of Cisco, about how the two companies are partnering to build a more secure digital world. They will also learn how Medtronic is transforming its business and get a sneak peek at Splunk’s latest innovations driving and protecting the AI revolution.

Wednesday will feature demonstrations by Splunk customers and executives on how a unified security and observability platform can help maintain digital system security and reliability despite disruptions. The .conf24 website has a complete list of sessions available for attendees to explore.

The Splunk Global Partner Summit (GPS) will also take place at .conf24, where partners will learn about the latest innovations and gain insights into the partner ecosystem. This partnership is crucial for MSSPs, as Splunk is a major player in the tools and platforms used by the largest MSSPs. With Cisco’s acquisition of Splunk in a $28 billion deal in September 2023, there are new opportunities for growth and collaboration with MSSPs.

Splunk’s MSSP approach involves providing comprehensive security solutions through Splunk Enterprise Security, which offers SIEM capabilities to detect, investigate, and respond to security threats. Splunk Phantom enables security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) to automate tasks and optimize incident response for MSSPs.

In a recent conversation with MSSP Alert, Gretchen O’Hara discussed the impact of Cisco’s acquisition on working with MSSPs and the benefits it brings, such as expanded business benefits, product innovation, and new MSP program benefits. O’Hara highlighted the challenges and successes in working with MSSPs and shared details about what MSSPs can look forward to at .conf24, including keynote and breakout sessions that will showcase the latest innovations and provide insights into partner-focused topics. The Partner Lounge will also host mini theater sessions and meet the experts tables for real-time interaction with partners.
