SecurEnvoy announces partnership with Citrix
Shearwater Group plc (AIM: SWG), the digital resilience group,
is pleased to announce that its portfolio company, SecurEnvoy, has
been appointed by Citrix (NASDAQ: CTXS) as one of its first Premier
Citrix Ready Partners for the fast-growing Identity and Access
Management ("IAM") sector.
Established in 1989 and with annual revenues of $2.8 billion,
Citrix solutions are used by more than 400,000 organisations
including 98 per cent. of Fortune 500 companies. The Citrix Ready
Program showcases verified products that are trusted to enhance
Citrix solutions for mobility, virtualization, networking and cloud
platforms. The Citrix Ready designation is awarded to third party
partners that have successfully met test criteria set by Citrix
before enabling access to Citrix's extensive customer base and
network of 10,000 resellers.
As announced at the time of the Group's acquisition of
SecurEnvoy in May 2017, developing and broadening SecurEnvoy's
authentication security solutions beyond multifactor authentication
("MFA") into IAM has been a key growth objective of the Company,
alongside US expansion. Securing a partnership with an established
and prominent market leader such as Citrix for the IAM sector is a
significant milestone in achieving these core objectives.
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 and we are proud to have them as one of
the first Premier Citrix Ready Partners for our IAM categories. We
look forward to their continued success in aligning with
Citrix."
Michael (Mo) Stevens, Group Chief Executive Officer of
Shearwater, added: "We had identified the US as a significant
market for growth for SecurEnvoy and 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."
