Vistorm goes for F5 Gold status
Security VAR becomes F5 Networks Advantage Gold Partner in the UK
Security VAR Vistorm has fulfilled the necessary requirements to become an F5 Networks Advantage Gold Partner in the UK.
The firm, which last week launched its Information Assurance Lifecycle appraisal (CRN, 26 June), incorporates F5 Networks’ suite of products into its managed security services offering.
Steve Browell, general manager of technology business at Vistorm, said: “F5 Networks has a strong range of application delivery and networking products that fit into our management security services portfolio.
“Our business is driven by the needs of our clients. F5 products, such as TrafficShield, Big-IP and FirePass are installed in a number of our clients’ sites.”
Paul Coates, sales director for UK and Eire at F5, said: “We are pleased to announce Vistorm as our latest Advantage Gold Partner. It will be a long-term and beneficial relationship.
“Vistorm has established itself as a competent and trusted provider of information assurance services. It has the technical skills to develop F5 products into the complete solution for clients across a range of industries.”
Coates added that the vendor awards Advantage Gold Partner status only to partners with a proven track record and the necessary skills.
“Vistorm met both of these requirements in depth,” he said.
