Podcast with Chris McHenry, VP at Aviatrix, and Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News

“Wiz detects. We react and enforce.” — Chris McHenry, Aviatrix

In this timely conversation, Doug Green of Technology Reseller News sits down with Chris McHenry, Vice President at Aviatrix, to explore the company’s groundbreaking partnership with Wiz—and how the two are working together to solve one of the most urgent problems in enterprise IT: cloud security.

Aviatrix is focused on reinventing network security for the cloud era, helping enterprises regain the controls they’ve lost in the transition from traditional data centers to cloud-native architectures. “CISOs consistently tell us their cloud environments feel less secure than their data centers,” McHenry notes. That’s where Aviatrix steps in—by delivering Zero Trust security at the network layer, with cloud-native tools that provide perimeter protection, lateral movement control, and runtime enforcement.

The conversation zeroes in on the company’s recent integration with Wiz, the cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) that recently made headlines with its massive $30 billion acquisition by Google. According to McHenry, the partnership is more than strategic—it’s foundational. “They detect attacks, we stop them,” he says, describing a “closed-loop” response system where Wiz identifies high-risk incidents and Aviatrix’s Cloud Native Security Fabric automatically reacts in real time, quarantining threats and blocking malicious activity.

As AI rapidly redefines the modern enterprise, McHenry explains how Aviatrix is evolving to meet the dual challenge: using AI to both secure cloud environments and enhance the performance of security operations. From custom AI-powered risk analysis to integrations with Microsoft Copilot for Security, the company is pushing innovation at both ends of the spectrum.

And for the reseller community, there’s even more upside. Aviatrix is proudly channel-first. “We sell almost entirely through the channel,” says McHenry, inviting partners—especially those already working with Wiz—to expand their practices with Aviatrix’s complementary offerings. “This is a big opportunity to help your customers modernize cloud security without lifting and shifting legacy firewalls.”

The stakes are rising, and this partnership is gaining attention for good reason. “Google’s acquisition of Wiz validates just how critical cloud security is,” says McHenry. “And our integration gives organizations an immediate path to both detect and respond to threats—at scale.”

This podcast is the first of a two-part series. Stay tuned for part two, where Aviatrix CEO Doug Merritt will dive deeper into the strategic vision shaping the next decade of secure cloud infrastructure.
