Data-Tech Recieves Partner of the Year Honor From Dell

Tampa, FL, December 2, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Data-Tech, Tampa Bay’s premier provider of IT security and managed services, was recently recognized as a Partner of the Year by computer technology giant Dell. At Dell’s “Peak Performance” 2015 event —an invitation-only gathering of worldwide business and technology leaders, held this year at the Aria in Las Vegas—Data-Tech was presented with the 'Tell Dell Partner of the Year' award. This honor is presented annually to a Dell partner that has received accolades for going above and beyond for a customer, or who has demonstrated commitment to the Dell SonicWALL partnership; Data-Tech has excelled in both areas.

Soon after receiving the Tell Dell award, Data-Tech was named as one of the industry’s top 10 managed security providers in 2015 by CSO Outlook magazine.  The Fremont, CA-based technology publication highlighted the strong partnership between Data-Tech-and Dell, focusing particularly on Data-Tech’s Firewall-as-a-Service (FWaaS) offering. Through FWaaS, Data-Tech clients have the option of adopting a world-class level of security at an affordable monthly rate, without having to actually purchase the expensive hardware that has always been the norm.

We couldn't be more thrilled to receive the 'Tell Dell Partner of the Year' award. This only serves to solidify our strong strategic partnership with the worldwide leader of high-performance network security and data protection. Ultimately, this partnership allows us to offer outstanding solutions and customer service to our clients, which is always our primary focus.

Moreover, leveraging Dell SonicWALL technology, Data-Tech’s security solution effectively addresses one of the most glaring problems companies face today in regards to network security: Encrypted traffic.  While a traditional firewall is unable to inspect encrypted traffic—thereby creating a substantial hole that can be exploited by cyber-criminals—Data-Tech’s solution actually allows for the inspection of encrypted traffic through Dell’s DPI-SSL (Deep Packet Inspection of Secure Socket Layer) technology.

“We couldn’t be more thrilled to receive the ‘Tell Dell Partner of the Year' Award” says Data-Tech CIO Mike Ponticello. “This only serves to solidify our strong strategic partnership with the worldwide leader of high-performance network security and data protection. Ultimately, this partnership allows us to offer outstanding solutions and customer service to our clients, which is always our primary focus.”
