ShardSecure and Carahsoft Partner to Make Advanced Data Control Platform Available to the Public Sector
July 11 2024 - 9:00AM
ShardSecure, a leading provider of data security, privacy and
resilience software, and Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted
Government IT Solutions Provider®, today announced a partnership.
Under the agreement, Carahsoft will serve as ShardSecure’s Public
Sector distributor, making its products available to the Public
Sector through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and NASA Solutions for
Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V, National Association of State
Procurement Officials (NASPO) ValuePoint, OMNIA Partners and The
Quilt contracts.
“Partnering with Carahsoft is a significant step forward for
ShardSecure as we expand our customer base in the Public Sector
market,” said Bob Lam, CEO & Co-Founder at ShardSecure. “We
look forward to leveraging Carahsoft’s industry expertise, reseller
network and extended reach in the Government to protect agencies
from ransomware and other cybersecurity threats.”
ShardSecure’s advanced data control platform is designed to
streamline unstructured data security, bolster privacy measures and
fortify resilience across hybrid and multicloud environments. Key
features of the platform include cutting-edge agentless file-level
protection and robust safeguards against tampering, deletion,
outages, ransomware and other unexpected events. Additionally, the
platform employs an innovative file-level encryption technique,
breaking files into micro shards too small to contain sensitive
data. These micro shards are then dispersed across multiple
containers that are distributed across multiple storage locations
for maximum protection.
The data control platform protects Government agencies from
malicious cyber-criminal attacks and other unexpected disasters.
Its technology allows users to secure data from internal and
external threats without the cost and complexity of agent-based
encryption solutions. It’s innovative approach to file-level
encryption can address data sovereignty and residency concerns in
on-premises, hybrid-cloud and multicloud storage locations.
“Carahsoft is pleased to form a partnership with ShardSecure to
bring its sophisticated data control platform to the Public
Sector,” said Brian O’Donnell, Vice President of Cybersecurity
Solutions at Carahsoft. “Alongside our reseller partners, we are
dedicated to streamlining access to forward-looking solutions that
aid Government agencies in the successful management and protection
of their data.”
ShardSecure’s solutions are available through Carahsoft’s SEWP V
contracts NNG15SC03B and NNG15SC27B, NASPO ValuePoint Master
Agreement #AR2472, OMNIA Partners Contract #R191902 and The Quilt
