“Security is
paramount to many government agencies and Samsung Knox is a defense-grade security
platform that is perfectly suited to address the government’s technology needs,”
said Keith Fuentes, Vice President, Knox Global Sales, Samsung Business. “Samsung
Knox meets and exceeds the tightest security requirements and we’re excited to
be bringing this industry-leading solution to more U.S. government agencies
through the GSA Schedule, SEWP Contract and our agreement with Carahsoft.”
The GSA
Information Technology Schedule 70 and the NASA SEWP are contract vehicles obtained
by companies to sell IT products and services to the U.S. government, following
a rigorous process in which the government carefully evaluates a company’s
proficiency and suitability for providing products and/or services to the
federal government. The GSA Schedule is the largest, most widely used
acquisition vehicle in the federal government and provides direct access to
products, services, and solutions from more than 5,000 certified industry
partners. The SEWP contract consists of 146 prime contractors, including 120
small businesses and has an outstanding track record of serving up fresh
technology for federal agencies.
“As the
government continues to embrace enterprise mobility, ensuring platform security
is a must,” said Carahsoft vice president Terry Drinkwine, who oversees the Samsung
Knox Solutions team at Carahsoft. “Samsung Knox offers a proven, highly rated
and secure system for our government enterprise customers and we are pleased to
add these solutions to our GSA Schedule and make them available to our reseller
ecosystem.”
Samsung Knox
is an award-winning, defense-grade security platform that provides multi-level
