LAN2LAN identified Druva as an established company producing high quality solutions, to protect and provide IT control over endpoint data. The agreement signposts Druva’s objectives to fuel significant channel success in the UK and further extend their global footprint. LAN2LAN are the first certified reseller in the UK to market Druva’s InSync endpoint data protection and governance platform, which was ranked number one by Gartner in the October 2013 report, Critical Capabilities for Enterprise Endpoint Backup.
Danny Williams, (Head of Mobile Security) at LAN2LAN sees endpoint data security as a key focus for businesses. ‘IT Departments should be encouraged to focus on the secure usability of their company data rather than device management alone. Mobile, Cloud and wi-fi services are enablinga mobile and flexible work life, but increase pressure on IT to keep the data safe on multiple platforms. Companies put policies and restrictions in place, but employees still want to use their own devices and file sharing because it enables them to be more productive’ says Williams.
Endpoint data protection is therefore critical and perfectly complements the LAN2LAN cyber security portfolio. LAN2LAN have the technology to protect perimeter security, identify threats and have remediation technologies to secure against advanced persistent viruses and malware. ‘InSync completes our product cycle. It works behind the scenes to provide backup, file access & restore across multiple platforms and devices (corporate or BYOD), preserves personal settings and simplifies data migration, without any impact on the end user. This means people can share files and documents on different devices without the need to do anything. 80% of data is duplicated between users and InSync’s global deduplication means multiple backups of the same document are unnecessary, thereby freeing up storage space and bandwidth’.
