SOMERSET, NJ and CHATSWOOD, AUSTRALIA -- 11/03/09 --
AEP Networks today announced that it
has signed a distribution agreement with WhiteGold Solutions for the
Australia and New Zealand markets. WhiteGold is a Unified Value Distributor
providing experienced-based pre- and post-sales and technical support,
training and professional services expertise in addition to
best-in-class security solutions to resellers across the region. The
relationship will expand AEP Networks' presence in the region, as WhiteGold
will introduce the AEP solutions to their reseller and service provider
network encompassing the SME, Education, Government, Corporate and
Enterprise sectors -- with key niche verticals within each.
Under the terms of the agreement, the first product being distributed via
WhiteGold will be the AEP Netilla secure application access gateway product
line, marketed as part of WhiteGold's Unified
End-Point Security solutions. The Netilla products provide entry into
areas not yet covered by WhiteGold's current vendor offerings, such as
secure remote application access for disaster recovery and business
continuity planning (e.g. Swine Flu), and client-side authentication and
user-based policy enforcement of application access control (endpoint
security). The Netilla line is available in both hardware appliance and
virtual appliance models.
"By teaming with WhiteGold Solutions, we can improve our customer
experience in terms of support, professional services and training," said
Pat Donnellan, CEO at AEP Networks. "WhiteGold's ability to introduce new
products to partners locally, along with their overall security expertise,
makes them a wonderful representative of AEP Networks."
"We are pleased to join AEP Networks' channel partner network. AEP will be
a key vendor and we look forward to introducing our established customer
base to the outstanding security products from AEP," stated Dominic
Whitehand, managing director of WhiteGold Solutions. "Additionally,
WhiteGold will be able to expand the number of offerings to customers by
distributing additional AEP Networks product lines -- providing
communications, encryption, key management and more."
