Keepit’s cloud-native platform offers unmatched security and efficiency, protecting critical business applications and mitigating ransomware risks through immutable, separate data storage. “The need for secure, scalable SaaS data protection is more critical than ever. Our relationship with Ingram Micro will help expand our Canadian footprint, elevate Keepit’s partner engagement commitment, and help take our channel business to the next level,” said Fahad Qureshi, Vice President of Sales for America and ANZ at Keepit. “As the importance of data security continues to rise, this agreement will provide channel partners with a new and effective way to procure our technology and better support their business growth.”
This alliance positions Keepit to deliver cutting-edge SaaS data protection to a broader Canadian market, enhancing cyber resilience and compliance for businesses navigating a complex digital landscape.
