Centrify wins Security Vendor of the Year Award

Centrify Corporation, the leader in unified identity management across cloud, mobile and data center, has been announced as Security Vendor of the Year at this year’s European IT & Software Excellence Awards. The only pan-European awards that recognise and reward excellence in European software development and IT and Telecom solutions provisioning, winners were chosen from 83 finalists representing 32 countries.

Nominated by Centrify partner, Somerford, the win recognises the company’s track record in developing and expanding its range of identity management solutions to meet the changing needs of its customers.

Andy Davies, managing director, Somerford, says: “Centrify’s innovation keeps us at the forefront of identity access management, enabling our customers to protect their businesses with the latest technologies in the market. A key aspect of Centrify’s solution is the speed of delivery, given our customers demand that solutions we provide are implemented in days and weeks, not months and years. Centrify is a fantastic company to work with and this award win is well deserved.”

“This tops off a record year of award wins and industry recognition, including Software Vendor of the Year at the European IT & Software Excellence Awards last year and Best Security Company of the Year at the SC Awards Europe,” adds Barry Scott, CTO EMEA at Centrify. “It reflects our commitment to helping customers address their identity challenges as they move to the cloud and mobile. It’s also wonderful recognition for our hard-working team and our partners.”

Announced last week at the awards dinner in London in front of 350 European IT professionals, the awards bring together leading ISVs, solution providers and systems integrators from across Europe to demonstrate their ability to provide industry-leading IT solutions for their customers.
