SBL increases commitment to Becrypt as Authorised Service Delivery Partner

PRLog (Press Release) - Feb. 28, 2012 - London, UK, 28 February, 2012  SBL, a market leading Value Added IT Reseller specialising in Information Security, has re-affirmed their status as a Platinum Partner with Becrypt.  A reseller with Becrypt for many years, this additional certification enables SBL to provide a wide range of professional services to Becrypt users, including training, consultancy and software engineering services.  SBL is the first company to complete the new Becrypt certification process which is part of Becrypt’s drive to professionalise and extend its channel.

To retain their Platinum Partner status SBL staff participated in a partner education programme designed to ensure that they maintain a thorough understanding of Becrypt’s latest range of products.  The education programme also verifies that partners have a complete understanding of the application of Becrypt products in differing scenarios, and specifically when protecting Her Majesty’s Government (HMG) information.

Becrypt supplies a range of award winning, innovative cyber security products designed to protect sensitive information throughout an organisation; on the desktop, at the end point and when in transit or being shared with trusted third parties.  Becrypt’s products are approved by CESG for use with all levels of Government data, right up to Impact Level 6 (TOP SECRET).  Becrypt’s is the only software to be accredited for use at this high level.

Bernadette Hopkinson, Services Delivery Manager at SBL commented, “Becrypt products have always been a strong proponent of SBL’s offering, particularly in the Military and Government sectors, where their software based encryption really is highly regarded.  We are delighted to be one of the first partners to go through Becrypt’s new certification programme.”

The programme demonstrates Becrypt’s continued commitment to support its partners, a fact that is particularly well illustrated by the new Deal Registration facilities announced recently which protects partner margins.

Bernard Parsons, CEO of Becrypt said, “Becrypt is more committed than ever before to supporting and extending our channel.  Our solutions are widely acknowledged as a leading data encryption solution, with Government approval for the protection of data right up to TOP SECRET.  Representing such systems therefore means that it is important that our partners are trained and qualified in this area.

“The requirement for robust cyber security solutions has never been higher as criminals continue to get ever more sophisticated in their attacks.  As a result many of our partners are seeing increased demand for our solutions and this has lead to us introducing greater depth to our formal certification process to ensure that high standards are maintained.”
