The EMS will help the distributor take a datadriven approach to carbon emissions reduction by centralising sub-meter electricity usage data from sites across Europe. As it is rolled out, the ecoDriver system will enable Westcon-Comstor to remotely identify opportunities to reduce emissions across its European estate and empower sustainability teams within the region to shift their focus from manual administration to evidence-based action. As more sites are added, Westcon-Comstor aims to benchmark buildings and run data-backed sustainability competitions between sites. Sarah McGaw, Global Head of Environmental Sustainability at Westcon-Comstor, said: “Having access to a single source of truth for our energy and emissions across Europe will allows us to identify, quantify and act on opportunities to make further reductions in line with our ambitious climate targets and commitment to helping create a more sustainable IT channel.” These include 100% renewable energy use globally by 2030, a 50% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 and becoming net-zero by 2050.

Recognised as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Exposure Assessment Platforms, Tenable’s AI-powered exposure management platform provides unified visibility, insight and action across the entire attack surface, enabling organisations to understand, prioritise and reduce risk. Distology CEO Hayley Roberts said: “Signing a vendor like Tenable is a huge milestone for us as a business. We were first introduced to Tenable a decade ago, and to see this partnership come to life now is a testament to the journey both organisations have been on and shows that even vendors in accelerated growth mode still need support with channel enablement. This partnership reinforces our valueled, consultative approach while strengthening our technology strategy in critical focus areas.” Kobi Hunn, Solutions Engineering Manager at Distology, added: “Exposure management and CTEM are critical in enabling organisations to move from reactive to proactive, adaptive security, and there is no partner better suited to deliver this than Tenable. While we already had strong technologies within the CTEM specialism, Tenable offer missing foundational capabilities in vulnerability exposure across workspace, cloud and OT infrastructures.” www.distology.com Hayley Roberts Paul Midwood Solstice AV
