Data security Protegrity has launched the Protegrity partner network, which empowers technology organisations, systems integrators, and value-added resellers (VARs) to seamlessly deliver Protegrity’s advanced data-protection solutions to joint customers, supporting privacy, advanced analytics, AI and machine learning, and cloud initiatives
The partner network gives partners the necessary resources and certifications to enable its customers to unlock the potential of secure data, creating more opportunities for innovation and digital transformation, and improving customer experiences.
“As a foundational pillar in Protegrity’s business transformation and growth strategy, the new partner network is an important step toward achieving our mission to secure the world’s most sensitive data by delivering advanced data protection,” said Protegrity president and CEO Rick Farnell. “At the core of our partnership strategy is neutrality, enabling us to empower more organisations to discover new uses of sensitive data and drive business excellence.”
Partners work closely with Protegrity to implement data security, privacy, and AI industry best practices to ensure customers successfully achieve their data-protection objectives.
The programme consists of two partner types—Service Partners and Technology Partners—and offers tiered benefits for each (Launch, Elevate, Transcend). Service Partners, including systems integrators and VARs, can address customer demands by providing sales, technical sales, technical support, advisory, and implementation services. Service partners can refer to new business or become eligible to resell the Protegrity platform. Technology partners, such as independent software vendors (ISVs) and large cloud hyperscalers, receive access to the Protegrity Data Protection Platform to develop custom software integrations, eliminating friction for customers when implementing joint solutions.
Gary Green, vice-president of Strategic Partnerships, Cloudera, said, “Data protection plays an important role in the data lifecycle. Protegrity can add a layer of data protection to any workload on the Cloudera Data Platform running on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid environments, enabling customers to scale seamlessly and securely without slowing down mission-critical data initiatives.”
