Resell BT Connect & Protect: the new small-business security stack

BT has rebranded its security portfolio under Threat Protect, with Business Antivirus Detect and Respond renamed to Endpoint Threat Protect and offered on a 24-month contract. Sold as Connect & Protect, it bundles secure connectivity with endpoint security so you can attach security to every broadband deal and grow account value over time.

Why this matters now

Small businesses are the largest target group in the UK cyber-attack landscape, and they’re actively looking for a trusted partner to help them get the basics right. BT’s brand pull plus a connectivity-led conversation gives Netify resellers a warmer way in than pitching standalone security products.

600,000+UK cyber attacks in 2025 — small businesses made up the largest share.
85%of breached businesses were hit by phishing — the most common attack type.
35%of micro businesses reported phishing attacks in the latest UK Government survey.
480,000+small businesses already connected by BT — the UK’s most trusted network for business.

  • More value, every sale. Broadband and Endpoint Threat Protect are advertised together — warmer conversations, higher deal value per customer.
  • Compelling commercial offer. The launch is backed by targeted incentives so resellers can lead with price-led upgrade conversations.
  • New Connect & Protect sales tools. Refreshed collateral helps you tell the connectivity-plus-security story with confidence.
  • Clear reasons to believe. Enhanced cyber support positions BT as a trusted long-term partner, not just a connectivity provider.
  • Brand-led demand generation. BT’s “Protecting more businesses than any other network” campaign builds awareness so conversations start warmer.

How to sell it — the Connect & Protect playbook

1. Lead with broadband, attach security

Open every broadband conversation as Secure Connectivity + Cyber Threat Protect. Web Protect ships with the line; Endpoint Threat Protect attaches at £4.99 per device per month with a 24-month commitment, taking deal value up immediately.

2. Qualify on devices and users

Endpoint Threat Protect is sold one licence per device, so the qualifying question is simply “how many laptops, desktops and mobiles need protecting?”. Scope the answer at the point of the broadband sale to avoid a separate sales cycle later.

3. Reopen at 90 days for Cloud Secure and Awareness Training

Once the customer is live and the endpoint estate is covered, the natural follow-on is Complete Cloud Secure (cloud apps, users and data) and Security Awareness Training for the human-risk layer. These are scale-up sales, not point-of-sale attaches.

4. Use the support stack as objection-handling

SMB buyers worry that they don’t have anyone in-house to run security. Point to the Cyber Support Hub, the Free Cyber Health Check, the AI Cyber Assistant and Cyber Coaches — together they reframe BT as the trusted long-term partner the customer is actually looking for.

Commission and contract. Reseller commission on Endpoint Threat Protect and the wider Threat Protect suite is paid per your signed Netify reseller agreement. Use the commission calculator on the main reseller hub to model the impact of attaching security to each broadband deal.
