What Aiqon IT does
Aiqon IT (AIQON) is a privately held Brazilian cybersecurity distribution hub headquartered in São Paulo, founded in 2012. The company does not develop security technology; instead, it curates a portfolio of 14+ globally developed cybersecurity platforms — including CheckRed (CSPM/CIEM/DNSPM/CNAPP/ITDR), Netwrix (identity and data governance), Action1 (patch management), ManageEngine, Syxsense, Cynet (XDR), Secure Code Warrior, Grip Security, KeepIt, Absolute Software, OX Security, 42Crunch, Veracode, Wallarm, and Swimlane (SOAR) — and delivers them to the Brazilian market through a fully channelized go-to-market model. AIQON performs 'tropicalização' — adapting international products to Brazilian tax, fiscal, regulatory (LGPD), and Reais-denominated billing requirements — and provides Portuguese-language pre-sales engineering, Level 3 technical support, deal-registration protection, white-label managed-service enablement, and a dedicated partner portal (aiqon.odoo.com). The company holds ISO 27001 and ISO 37001 certifications.
Revenue is generated through four streams: (1) margin on license resale (annual/multi-year subscriptions) to VAR channel partners, (2) recurring managed-service revenue shared with MSP/MSSP partners on monthly MRR models, (3) success-fee commissions paid to Finder/referral partners, and (4) professional services for pre-sales engineering, POC support, and onboarding. AIQON does not sell directly to end customers; all commercial motion flows through its three-tier partner program (Finder, VAR, MSP/MSSP). The company serves Brazilian enterprises of all sizes and industries — with stated end-customer use cases spanning LGPD compliance, ransomware defense, identity protection, DevSecOps, cloud-security posture management, and vulnerability management — and currently reports 11–50 employees with a single-country (Brazil) operating footprint.

Revenue model
- Resale of Cybersecurity Licenses: AIQON generates revenue by purchasing or receiving authorization from global cybersecurity manufacturers and reselling licenses, subscriptions, and perpetual agreements to Brazilian channel partners and end customers. Revenue is generated through margin on license resale, annual subscriptions, and project-based deals.
- Managed Security Services (MSSP/MSP): Through MSP/MSSP partner tiers, AIQON enables recurring managed service revenue. Partners deliver managed security services on a monthly MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue) basis using AIQON's portfolio, with AIQON potentially taking a share or providing white-label technical support.
- Referral/Finder Commissions: Finder partners earn commission on successful business closed by AIQON's own sales team, with no requirement for the partner to hold a resale structure or deliver technical services.
- Professional Services: AIQON provides pre-sales engineering, POC support, onboarding, and Level 3 technical support to partners, which can be bundled as professional services alongside product licensing.

Aiqon IT competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Exclusive Networks: Global cybersecurity-focused value-added distributor with operations across multiple continents. The single closest comparable to AIQON: both curate global cybersecurity vendors, distribute exclusively or semi-exclusively through channel partners, and bundle pre-sales engineering, enablement, and recurring managed services enablement.
- Westcon-Comstor: Global VAD specializing in cybersecurity, networking, and unified communications with a significant Latin America presence. Closely comparable to AIQON in vendor curation, channel-led GTM, and security-segment focus.
Broad incumbents
- Ingram Micro: World's largest IT distributor with substantial operations in Brazil. Overlaps with AIQON through broad cybersecurity distribution but operates at far greater scale and across non-security categories, making AIQON's cybersecurity specialization the differentiator.
- TD SYNNEX: Global IT distributor formed via the merger of Tech Data and SYNNEX; Brazil is one of many markets served. Comparable in distribution function to AIQON but with a much wider portfolio and far larger geographic footprint.
- ALSO Group: European-headquartered IT distributor with growing Latin America presence. Overlaps with AIQON as a value-added distributor aggregating multi-vendor technology solutions for resellers, though AIQON is cybersecurity-specialized.
- Arrow Electronics: Global broadline IT distributor with Brazil and broader Latin America operations including a dedicated enterprise computing solutions group with cybersecurity offerings. Comparable as a multi-vendor distributor serving channel partners, but with much broader portfolio scope than AIQON.
Others
- CrowdStrike: A leading global endpoint/XDR vendor with an expanding direct Brazil presence and partner channel. Not a distributor, but represents the type of large vendor whose decision to localize or change channel strategy directly impacts AIQON's competitive position.
- Palo Alto Networks: Global cybersecurity platform vendor with growing direct Brazil presence and active partner program. Operates a vendor (not distributor) model, but competes for the same end-customer wallet that AIQON's partner ecosystem addresses.
- Netwrix: One of AIQON's flagship principals specializing in data security, identity governance, and compliance. Comparable in product capability but functions as a vendor dependent on AIQON for Brazilian distribution rather than a competing distributor.
- CheckRed: Unified CSPM/CIEM/CNAPP platform and a flagship AIQON principal with CSA STAR Level 1 certification. Functions as a vendor in AIQON's portfolio rather than a direct competitor, but illustrates how AIQON's product breadth is constructed.
