At Cyber Fusion Distribution, we’re proud to introduce BlockAPT, one of the latest additions to our vendor portfolio. In a recent episode of the Cyber Fusion video podcast, our Director Steve Mullan sat down with Marco Essomba, founder of BlockAPT, to explore how the platform is transforming cybersecurity operations through true consolidation, automation, and next-gen threat protection.
The Origins of BlockAPT
With over two decades in the cybersecurity industry, working across enterprise and government sectors as an engineer, consultant, and solutions architect, Marco saw a clear problem: organisations had fantastic security tools, but they weren’t working together effectively.
From this insight, BlockAPT was born. “We saw organisations investing in EDR, intrusion detection, MDR… but without any real cohesion,” said Marco. “BlockAPT brings it all together in a single platform, monitoring, managing, and automating your entire security ecosystem.”
After five years of tuning the product and working through deep integrations, BlockAPT is now ready to scale, and Cyber Fusion is excited to help bring that to the UK channel.
Finally, a True Single Pane of Glass
The idea of a “single pane of glass” is often promised but rarely delivered. Marco explains why BlockAPT is different: “Five years ago, APIs weren’t where they are today. But with the push towards mesh architectures and open APIs, it’s finally possible to centralise security operations in one intuitive platform.”
BlockAPT functions as a command-and-control centre for your entire cyber ecosystem—agentless, deeply integrated, and highly automated. Whether you already have a SIEM or not, the platform adapts to your environment.
“We don’t want to rip and replace,” says Marco. “If you’ve already invested in a SIEM, we’ll integrate with it. If you haven’t, we’ve got one built in. The goal is to optimise what you have and give you real visibility—and the power to act.”
Built for Integration, Ready for Automation
BlockAPT consolidates SIEM and SOAR capabilities into one system. Unlike traditional SOAR platforms that rely on plugins or superficial APIs, BlockAPT enables real-time orchestration and automation without deploying agents across your infrastructure.
From EDR and firewalls to zero-trust networks and MDR platforms, BlockAPT ingests data from a wide range of sources and turns it into actionable insights, with the ability to trigger automated workflows when threats arise.
“The future is machines defending against machines,” says Marco. “With the speed of AI-driven threats increasing, human-led responses are no longer scalable. Our platform gives customers the automation needed to keep pace.”
Quantum-Ready Cyber Defence
In a forward-thinking move, BlockAPT has also built quantum-secure communication modules into the platform. As quantum computing advances, traditional encryption will become increasingly vulnerable.
BlockAPT’s post-quantum cryptography modules are designed to protect point-to-point communications and sensitive data in motion, using military-grade protocols already tested by the US government.
Flexible for Every Customer – Proof of Concept Available
Whether a partner is working with an enterprise that has a mature cybersecurity stack, or a business just starting their security journey, BlockAPT is built to scale.
From initial visibility and alert consolidation to full orchestration and autonomous response, BlockAPT offers a flexible proof of concept (PoC) approach tailored to the customer’s maturity and needs.
“We guide both partners and end clients through that journey,” Marco said. “Our consultative approach ensures each deployment is aligned to real requirements, whether it’s compliance, automation, or futureproofing infrastructure.”
Helping Partners Address Customer Pain Points
For Cyber Fusion’s partner network, BlockAPT offers a way to simplify complex environments, reduce alert fatigue, and help customers prepare for AI and quantum-driven threats. Common pain points it helps resolve include:
- Lack of integration between tools
- Overwhelming alert volumes
- Limited visibility across networks
- Slow incident response
- Challenges meeting compliance requirements (e.g. DORA, PCI-DSS, SOC2)
Built for the Channel, Powered by Cyber Fusion
BlockAPT is fully committed to the channel model, and we’re excited to take this platform to partners across the UK. With a unique combination of deep visibility, seamless integration, and quantum-ready security, BlockAPT enables MSSPs, consultancies, and resellers to deliver real value in an increasingly complex cyber landscape.
