Technology distributor Avnet has expanded its portfolio to include security-as-a-service (SaaS) offerings from Alert Logic.
Avnet will provide its value-added reseller (VAR), managed service provider (MSP) and independent software vendor (ISV) partners in the U.S. and Canada with Alert Logic’s services, which include fully managed and monitored security and compliance solutions for cloud, hybrid and on-premise infrastructures, through Avnet Cloud Solutions, and in conjunction with its major cloud-computing platform, Amazon Web Services (AWS).
“Avnet’s new relationship with Alert Logic will bolster the ability of our partners to deliver critical cloud security services that help keep their customers’ data safe and compliant, allowing them to focus on running their businesses,” said Tim FitzGerald, vice president of Avnet’s cloud solutions business in the Americas. “The addition of Alert Logic expands our cloud ecosystem with another important ally toward providing our partners with the strategic guidance, resources and packaged offerings to quickly, securely and cost-effectively build and grow their customers’ cloud computing platforms.”
