N-able agrees Cybersecurity partnership with Manchester City
March 19 – Manchester City have added another layer to their growing tech stack, confirming a new partnership with N-able which will see it become the club’s Official Cybersecurity Partner across both the men’s and women’s teams.
As part of the agreement, N-able will roll out its technology – including AI-driven security tools – to strengthen the club’s existing infrastructure, with the core aim of safeguarding the club’s systems, data and day-to-day operations across their digital setup.
As per usual, the brand also expects to feature across a range of digital and matchday assets tied to the first teams.
James Tennant, Director of Technology – Information Security at City Football Group, said, “Manchester City is a leading global brand within sport and beyond and with that comes the requirement for us to continually invest in technology and services to protect our people, our data, and our operations.
“N-able offer advanced end-to-end solutions that will help us as we continue to evolve and future-proof operations and we look forward to working with them as part of this new agreement announced today.”
Vikram Ramesh, Chief Marketing Officer at N-able, said: “The best teams in the world don’t just perform, they protect what makes performance possible. Manchester City operates at elite speed, across global markets, with zero tolerance for disruption.
“That’s exactly the environment N-able was built for. This partnership is a statement about where cybersecurity is heading – toward partners who build the resilience that lets world-class organisations keep moving forward.”
The club could have used a bit of that resilience against Real Madrid in their UEFA Champions League return fixture at the Etihad on Tuesday night.
Pep’s side limped out 5-1 on aggregate to end this season’s European run at the Round of 16 stage – though with a place in the Carabao Cup final at the weekend – and now bestowed with more time in midweek to build towards a Premier League title comeback – the Blues still have plenty to focus on to claw out some success from a difficult campaign.

PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
