Kaspersky Lab Brings Home “Best VAR Solution: Software” and “Best Enterprise Alliance Strategy” Awards from Recent IT ChannelVision Event
WOBURN, Mass.--Kaspersky Lab, a leading developer of secure content management solutions, announced today that the North American operation was once again recognized for its unique and innovative value-added reseller program at the recent IT ChannelVision, a business-focused channel event produced by Vision Events. Kaspersky Lab received awards for “Best VAR Solution: Software” and “Best Enterprise Alliance Strategy.” The Company was also a nominee in the following categories: “Best VAR Channel Strategy,” “Best VAR Presentation,” “Best Enterprise Vendor Presentation” and “Best Enterprise Solution.” These honors are particularly prestigious given that the Best of IT ChannelVision awards are the only accolades in the channel solely voted on by the attending resellers and solution providers.
“When it comes to the value-added reseller channel, we feel we’ve had a remarkable run of success from when we introduced our products and our partner program almost two years ago,” said Steve Orenberg, president, Kaspersky Lab, Inc., North American operations. “Continuing to receive honors from IT ChannelVision, we believe, not only showcases our dedication to be a leading channel partner for antivirus and anti-spyware offerings, it also shows the trust our partners have in Kaspersky’s commitment to their success. The channel has come to recognize that Kaspersky Lab’s approach – premium products at very competitive prices, delivered with the highest possible margins for our partners – makes for a winning combination.”
Heralded for the accuracy and frequency of its antivirus updates with the market’s exclusive automated hourly antivirus updates, Kaspersky Lab’s Virus Lab outpaces any of the leading virus detection centers with the industry’s highest detection rates and its unmatched rapid response time to virus outbreaks. With Kaspersky Lab’s full line of award-winning products that protect against viruses, spyware, phishing, spam and hackers attacks, VARs can deliver quality malware security for their customers’ most complex networks, from firewalls and gateways to mail servers, file servers, workstations and mobile devices.
