Aura Business and Climb Partner to Tackle the Growing Challenge of Unmanaged Devices

Partnership gives MSPs access to a solution designed to help businesses and employees navigate BYOD environments

BOSTON, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Aura Business, the business division of global online safety and wellbeing leader Aura (ASX: AXQ), today announced a partnership with Climb, a global specialty technology distributor focused on security, data management, connectivity, cloud and software solutions. Through the partnership, Climb's network of resellers and managed service providers (MSPs) can now offer Aura Business's new identity-centric BYOD security solution to their customers.

MSPs are on the front lines of helping customers protect every point of access, yet security gaps remain as more employees use personal devices for work related assignments. Through its partnership with Aura Business, Climb gives businesses a powerful solution to secure employees, customers, and company data across both personal and business devices.

"Businesses are operating across more devices and environments than ever, which can make it difficult for MSPs to see and protect every potential point of risk," said Jason Coville, head of the MSP business at Aura. "Omdia found that 65% of MSPs are seeing demand for BYOD management, yet only 24% monitor employee-owned devices, while 55% have experienced a BYOD-related security incident in the past 24 months. With Aura Business now available through Climb, MSPs can extend protection to the devices employees use every day, including those that may fall outside traditional security controls. We're excited to give our partners another way to help their customers stay protected as their environments continue to evolve."

Aura Business complements existing IT security with an easy-to-deploy, identity-centric platform that helps close critical gaps in modern, distributed work environments. Built for MSPs, it secures access to corporate systems from employee-owned devices — without managing the device or accessing personal data — while providing partners centralized visibility and control through a simple, multi-tenant platform.

"MSPs are helping businesses secure increasingly complex environments, and unmanaged devices remain one of the biggest gaps in today's security strategies," said Tim Popovich, Chief Operating Officer at Climb. "Bringing Aura Business to the MSP market gives our partners a powerful solution to protect employees, customers, and company data across personal and business devices."

Climb customers can immediately access Aura Business through the Climb marketplace. To learn more about how Aura Business helps protect employees and reduce identity-based risk, reach out to your Climb representative or contact Aura Business at [email protected] or visit aura.com/msp.
