Ironkey Partners With Cohort To Expand Distribution Throughout The UK & Ireland

Dec. 17, 2010 - PRLog -- The agreement will enable IronKey to expand their network of IT security partners and also increase market share of secure encrypted portable storage devices in key markets through Cohort’s existing reseller community.

“We’re excited to partner with IronKey, who lead the way for innovation in secure and managed portable computing solutions,” said Grahame Smee, managing director at http://www.cohorttechnology.com. “Their product suite also has great synergy with other vendors within our portfolio, strengthening the value we provide to our channel partners, and allowing our partners to deliver more complete solutions for data loss and protection.”

IronKey Enterprise secures data with always-on hardware encryption to meet industry-standard compliance and data protection requirements. All user data on an IronKey Enterprise drive is encrypted with high-speed, AES CBC-mode encryption. IronKey Enterprise can be deployed quickly using the cloud-based IronKey Enterprise Management Service. Administrators are in full control of deployed devices and if needed can remotely disable devices and wipe data. IronKey Enterprise logs device use for reporting and compliance.

“We see this partnership with http://www.cohorttechnology.com as key to driving forward our growth in the UK and Ireland,” commented Colin Woodland, VP EMEA IronKey. “And with the pressure increasing on businesses following the recent fines for data loss by the Information Commissioners Office, Cohort and their value added resellers offer IronKey a strategic route into such organisations.”

IronKey products are available immediately through Cohort resellers.
