SonicWall’s 2026 Partner Awards: Celebrating the Partners Powering SonicWall’s Global Success

SonicWall recognizes 113 global partners — including 17 in North America — for innovation, growth and cybersecurity excellence last year.

Celebrating the Partners Who Made 2025 a Standout Year

At SonicWall, our partners are at the heart of everything we do. They are the ones working directly with customers every day, helping organizations stay secure, adapt to new threats and grow with confidence in an increasingly complex, and at many times, confusing, cybersecurity landscape.

That’s why the annual SonicWall Partner Awards are one of our favorite moments each year. They give us the opportunity to pause, reflect and recognize the partners who went above and beyond, not just in performance, but in partnership, innovation and customer commitment.

This year, SonicWall is proud to recognize 113 partners globally, including 17 partners across North America, for their outstanding contributions across regions, partner models and areas of expertise.
