Leading provider of cloud-based security appoints HANDD in the UK as part of global expansion with ten new channel partnerships

iSheriff, the industry leader in delivering cloud-based security, has announced 10 new channel partners across the UK, Italy, The Netherlands, South Africa, India and Australia, reflecting iSheriff’s rapid international expansion and continued momentum as a global leader in cloud security. The new UK partner is Reading-based HANDD Business Solutions, who join the likes of Kelway, ITB, Voodoo Technology and Infinigate.

“iSheriff is pioneering a compelling new approach to cloud-based security in the UK,” said Anthony Hodges, CEO, HANDD Business Solutions. “Security is at the foundation of our business and we are delighted to be partnering with iSheriff to bring their industry-leading cyber-security capabilities to our customers.”

The global cloud security market is experiencing exponential growth and according to Gartner, it will reach $3.1 billion by the end of 2015, an annual increase of nearly 50 percent. With this staggering growth, traditional on-premise security solutions cannot scale to meet the rapidly evolving security needs of the global marketplace. iSheriff provides the industry with the easiest to use security-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions for today’s security and compliance challenges. The company solves the cost and complexity problem for organisations by delivering an end-to-end security solution, through the cloud, with single-pane of glass visibility and control.

“The cost and complexity of defending against modern cyber-attacks continues to accelerate at breakneck speed,” said Paul Lipman, CEO, iSheriff.

“The innovative iSheriff cloud security service ensures that our customers never have to make a trade-off between quality of protection and overall cost. Building solid, global partnerships is extremely important to us at iSheriff and we look forward to working with our partners as we continue to expand our global cloud security footprint.”

Through these new, global distribution partnerships, iSheriff’s cloud security services will provide international customers with unparalleled protection again today’s most dangerous cybercrime and malware threats. Customers will benefit from dramatically superior total cost of ownership and protection compared with traditional on-premise security approaches. They will also benefit from unparalleled regional security coverage as a result of iSheriff’s recently announced expansion of its cloud security network into eight additional countries in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region.

iSheriff delivers the industry’s easiest to deploy and manage SaaS solution for protection against today’s multi-vector threats and compliance challenges, combining the power, flexibility and ease of a cloud-based service offering with a seamlessly integrated suite of critical technologies. This includes Web filtering and malware protection, advanced endpoint anti-malware and application controls, anti-spam and email threat prevention.
