Cryptzone signs two new international SaaS distributor agreements

Gothenburg, Sweden

Cryptzone has signed new agreements with two leading security SaaS providers to extend the global reach of its Security as a Service (SaaS) platform. This signals an upsurge in demand from medium-sized organisations to adopt effective yet affordable cloud computing services
In the United States, Thinkgrid, a world-wide leader in Cloud services, has signed a distribution contract with Cryptzone. IREO located in Spain, has signed a distribution agreement for rights covering Spain, Portugal and Andorra. Both these partners are looking to enhance their SaaS offering with Cryptzone’s encryption technology.

World-wide demand for Cryptzone’s Security as a Service from SaaS distributors and resellers continues to increase steadily as users call for effective, transparent and user friendly applications to protect their data.

Cryptzone's SaaS platform offers a real alternative to using traditional security vendors. "Even in the virtual world, resellers and end customers are looking to establish long-term business relationships with people they know and trust." says Peter Davin, CEO at the Cryptzone Group. "Working with local partners who know and value their customer relationships is the perfect business model for the Cryptzone Group."

These IT service providers offer high quality technical support and have reputations for customer service in their respective markets. In turn, they selected Cryptzone because of its strong security solution portfolio of products, which are easy to understand, use, and sell. The automated license and billing system makes Cryptzone’s SaaS platform simple to administer on behalf of customers.

Adopting on-demand services on a pay-as-you-go basis provides an attractive outsourcing strategy for customers to control costs and deliver business agility.

Because Cryptzone partners are able to spread all of the costs associated with installing, running and maintaining applications, the underlying software infrastructure and associated hardware, small and medium sized enterprises are able to benefit from security tools normally only afforded by larger organisations.

"Cloud encryption further enhances the broader security benefits of this IT model, particularly in high risk areas such as remote working. Businesses no longer have to worry about lost or stolen devices as all applications and data reside in the cloud and are now fully encrypted," says Rob Lovell, Thinkgrid CEO.

Dejan Belgrenius, Cryptzone’s Vice President of SaaS EMEA & Asia points out that “Today’s business practices demand that organisations of all sizes are able to provide employees, partners and customers with secure computing services 24/7. SaaS provides smaller organisations with an opportunity to compete against global players, safe in the knowledge that security is being assured to the highest standards by their Cryptzone service provider.”
