Caretower Partners With Axway to Protect Customers Against Data Loss

Axway Managed File Transfer and File Transfer Direct Products to Secure and Manage Data in Motion

London – 15 June 2010, Axway, the Business Interaction Networks company, today announced its partnership with Caretower, a leading reseller of IT security solutions. Caretower will be delivering Axway’s leading Managed File Transfer (MFT) products, including their ad hoc offering File Transfer Direct, to its customers in the UK and Ireland to protect their corporate data when in motion.

High-profile incidents of data loss are putting extra pressure on businesses to protect their data from accidental loss or deliberate theft. To meet this need, Caretower wanted to offer its customers a complete security solution that secures and manages the transfer of data as it moves within, and out of, an organisation.  Caretower was looking for industry-leading and reliable products that would enhance its existing solution portfolio.

Axway’s credentials assured Caretower of the maturity and reliability of its enterprise-class security solutions.  Recently, Axway was positioned as a “leader” within the Gartner, Inc. Magic Quadrant for Managed File Transfer.*

“The breadth of existing deployments in business-critical environments across multiple vertical markets, in addition to the industry credentials, further proved that the Axway MFT and File Transfer Direct products were the correct fit for our portfolio,” said George Neophytou, Caretower’s Managing Director. “As Axway’s products can be easily integrated into existing infrastructures, we are in the position to implement straight away and start allaying our customers’ fears over data loss.”

Axway MFT enables companies to secure and manage the transfer of information when at rest and in motion between disparate platforms, applications and people, and third-party trading partners. Axway File Transfer Direct is the first and only ad hoc file transfer solution, reducing risk and improving compliance by securely delivering large files while incorporating policy management and data visibility for corporate governance and data loss prevention.

Stuart Feargrieve, Managing Director for Axway UK, commented: “Caretower understands that enterprises are under immense pressure to secure and manage their business interaction networks. With the integration of Axway MFT and File Transfer Direct into its portfolio, they will be providing a complete security solution to achieve this. We look forward to working closely with this fast growing and award winning reseller to secure their customers’ communication of data.”

Initially, Caretower will focus on MFT and File Transfer Direct but intends to integrate and deliver additional Axway products within its portfolio.
