CLICO, a specialized value-added distributor that has been successfully introducing and promoting innovative cybersecurity, networking, and infrastructure solutions across Central and Eastern Europe since 1991, has signed a distribution agreement with Profitap, a leading provider of network visibility and network performance monitoring solutions.
The partnership enables CLICO to deliver Profitap’s comprehensive portfolio of network TAPs, packet brokers, and network performance monitoring solutions to partners and customers across the region, helping organizations gain complete visibility into their network environments while improving operational efficiency and security.
"Modern IT and security teams can only protect and optimize what they can actually see. As enterprise infrastructures become increasingly complex and distributed, network visibility has become a critical foundation for both operational resilience and cybersecurity. Profitap addresses this challenge with a unique combination of packet-level visibility, traffic aggregation, intelligent filtering, and advanced network performance monitoring. We are excited to bring these capabilities to our partners and customers throughout the region," said Piotr Filip, Network Team Manager at CLICO Group.
Profitap provides a complete network visibility portfolio comprising network TAPs and packet brokers that deliver full, lossless access to network traffic. The solutions enable NetOps and SecOps teams to aggregate traffic from multiple network links and provide monitoring and security tools with only the most relevant data through advanced filtering, deduplication, packet slicing, and sensitive-data masking capabilities.
Designed around an open, vendor-neutral architecture, Profitap integrates seamlessly with existing security and monitoring infrastructures. By providing high-quality packet-level data to SIEM, NDR, IDS/IPS, observability, and performance monitoring platforms, Profitap helps organizations improve threat detection, accelerate troubleshooting, and increase the effectiveness of the tools they already rely on. This approach makes Profitap a valuable complement to the cybersecurity and networking technologies already available within the CLICO portfolio, helping partners build comprehensive visibility, performance, and security architectures for their customers.
In addition to network visibility solutions, Profitap offers IOTA, an advanced Network Performance Monitoring platform that combines packet capture and analytics within a single appliance. The platform establishes network traffic baselines, detects anomalies, identifies congestion, packet loss, and configuration issues, and provides detailed root-cause analysis to reduce Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR) and maintain optimal Quality of Service (QoS). For field diagnostics and troubleshooting, Profitap complements the platform with its portable ProfiShark devices, delivering full packet capture with nanosecond-resolution hardware timestamping.
“We are exited to begin our partnership with CLICO, a trusted distributor offering value-added services, with a strong presence throughout the region and extensive experience in implementing key monitoring solutions. This partnership represents an important step toward expanding our reach and allows us to better support customers and partners in the markets where CLICO operates. Together, we intend to deliver high-quality network visibility solutions and build long-term success,” commented Geoffrey Kempenich, CEO of Profitap.
The Agreement applies solely to the following countries in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia: Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, Romania, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Kosovo, Albania, North Macedonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Greece, Moldova, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan.
