Enhanced partnership combines Meridian IT’s cybersecurity expertise and managed services with direct access to Arctic Wolf security operations support
DEERFIELD, Ill., October, 13, 2026 — Meridian IT Inc. today announced it has expanded its relationship with Arctic Wolf®, the cybersecurity and AI company, by becoming an Arctic Wolf MSP Plus Partner. The enhanced partnership gives Meridian customers a collaborative security operations model that combines Meridian’s cybersecurity and managed services expertise with direct support from Arctic Wolf security experts.
Through the MSP Plus model, Meridian remains closely engaged with customers and their broader IT environments while Arctic Wolf works directly with customers to provide security monitoring, incident triage and strategic guidance. The shared approach gives organizations access to specialized security operations expertise while maintaining the trusted relationship, IT knowledge and ongoing support Meridian provides.
Meridian customers can obtain Arctic Wolf's leading security operations capabilities that are designed to prevent, detect, respond, and remediate modern, advanced cyber threats—all delivered through the unparalleled precision, speed and adaptability of the Arctic Wolf Aurora® Superintelligence Platform and the Aurora Agentic SOC.
The enhanced partnership builds on Meridian IT’s cybersecurity portfolio and its focus on continuous risk reduction. Meridian helps organizations gain greater visibility across complex IT environments, prioritize and remediate risk, respond to threats and strengthen their security posture over time. Its cybersecurity capabilities span managed detection and response, incident response, managed firewall and network security, vulnerability management and testing, and security across cloud, hybrid and on-premises environments.
The Arctic Wolf Aurora Superintelligence Platform has ushered in a new era of security operations designed to accelerate AI adoption across cybersecurity, founded on the principle that companies need a platform that not only keeps pace with threats, but actively reduces risk and builds long-term resilience. When combined with Arctic Wolf’s Concierge Experience and Security Journey, organizations can achieve critical security outcomes that drive down cyber risk, empowering them to focus on success and innovation for their business. As a result, joint customers will be empowered with customizable and tailored resources to help protect against and remediate emerging and existing threats, while also improving their security posture over time.
“Our customers are looking for ways to strengthen cybersecurity without adding more complexity to already complex IT environments,” said Christian Peterson, president, Meridian IT. “Expanding our relationship with Arctic Wolf gives them the benefit of two teams working together toward the same goal. Meridian brings our understanding of the customer’s business and broader technology environment, while Arctic Wolf brings specialized security operations expertise. Together, we can help customers reduce risk and build greater resilience over time.”
For Meridian’s cybersecurity team, the expanded relationship also strengthens the connection between identifying potential threats and taking action to address them. With Meridian and Arctic Wolf both engaged, customers have access to security operations expertise while Meridian maintains visibility into the broader environment and the risks that matter most to the organization.
“Effective cybersecurity depends on being able to see what’s happening across the environment, understand what matters and act quickly when risk emerges,” said Lenny Krol, senior director of cybersecurity practice, Meridian IT. “The MSP Plus model strengthens that process by giving our customers direct access to Arctic Wolf’s security operations expertise while our team remains actively involved. That combination helps us move from simply identifying threats and vulnerabilities to prioritizing and addressing risk on an ongoing basis.”
The MSP Plus relationship also builds on Arctic Wolf’s partner-centric approach, bringing the companies’ complementary capabilities together to support customers throughout their security journey.
“We are excited to have Meridian IT in our award-winning Partner Program. Arctic Wolf’s security operations expertise complements their suite of existing offerings to create a unified approach that will protect customers and advance their security journey,” said Will Briggs, senior vice president, Global Channels, Arctic Wolf. “In an environment where cyber risk is synonymous with business risk, the Arctic Wolf Aurora Superintelligence Platform allows customers to achieve not only world-class security operations, but also the protection and peace-of-mind that comes along with it.”
Arctic Wolf’s partner-centric go-to-market model has cemented the company as the cybersecurity partner-of-choice for more than 11,000 customers worldwide, enabling security-minded and AI-focused partners to position themselves as a pioneering force in not just the cybersecurity and AI market, but the technology sector as a whole.
