Shearwater's subsidiary SecurEnvoy appointed as Premier Citrix Ready Partner
Shearwater Group's portfolio company SecurEnvoy was on Tuesday appointed by Citrix as one of its first Premier Citrix Ready Partners for the identity and access management sector.
The Citrix Ready programme showcases products that are determined to enhance Citrix's mobility, virtualization, network and cloud solutions, with designation awarded to third party partners that have met company test criteria.
As such, SecurEnvoy will now have access to Citrix's customer base and network of 10,000 resellers.
Nabeel Youakim, VP of products & solutions architecture at Citrix, said: "We have enjoyed a strong partnership with SecurEnvoy given their ability to deliver highly secure MFA seamlessly with core Citrix technologies such as NetScaler, XenApp and XenDesktop. Their commitment to integrating with our technology underscores the strength of this solution."
Shearwater acquired SecurEnvoy in May 2017 and said the new partnership is a "significant milestone" in achieving its core objectives of US expansion and broadening SecurEnvoy's authentication security solutions.
Michael Stevens, group chief executive of Shearwater, said: "I am delighted that we have been able to secure this new partnership with Citrix today. Alongside recently announced channel partner wins in this territory, we are really pleased with the progress of our US strategy and we look forward to building on this fantastic momentum as we move through the year."
