Avecto Named a CRN Emerging Technology Vendor
Pioneer in Least Privilege Management Selected as a Leading Software Vendor for its Innovative Solution and Strong Channel Program
North Andover, Mass., and Manchester, UK, July 20th, 2010
Avecto, the leader in Windows privilege
management, today announced it has been selected by Everything
Channel as a CRN Emerging Technology Vendor. The
annual list recognizes companies that are delivering high margins
for solution providers with innovative and easy-to-use
technology.
Avecto was selected as an emerging software vendor based on the
innovation and rapid channel adoption of Privilege Guard, its
industry-leading solution that enables the security principle of
least privilege in Windows environments. Avecto has built a strong
channel partnership program
featuring industry-leading resellers, systems integrators and
consulting organizations to deliver the benefits of least privilege
management to its customers worldwide.
"Solution providers are always looking for new and innovative
technology to solve business problems for their customers. As this
industry has shown, today's emerging vendor can be tomorrow's
Cisco, Google or Facebook and getting ahead of technology can help
a VAR grow their business and differentiate their offerings," said
Kelley Damore, VP, editorial director, Everything Channel.
Avecto Privilege Guard is the industry's most comprehensive
solution for enabling the security principle of least privilege in
Windows environments. Privilege Guard eliminates the need to assign
admin rights to users and allows enterprises to dynamically assign
these rights to applications, tasks and scripts. Privilege Guard
enables users to log on to Windows desktops and servers with
minimal rights while empowering them to perform their day-to-day
role, leading to increased security, simplified compliance with
industry regulations and reduced support costs.
"Avecto is honored to be selected by CRN as an emerging software
vendor," said Paul Kenyon, chief operating officer at Avecto. "This
is a testament to the company's rapid growth and the industry's
need for a reliable solution for managing admin rights to achieve
least privilege for their Windows environments. We look forward to
helping organizations across the globe deploy secure and compliant
desktops and servers and leveraging our strong channel program as a
key factor in achieving that goal."
The vendors that make up the CRN Emerging Technology Vendor list
were founded in 2004 or later, have revenue under $1 billion and
have an active U.S. channel strategy. Final selection to the
Emerging Technology Vendor list was made by the CRN editorial team
