MANCHESTER, England, February 3 - Avecto Ltd, the most trusted name in least privilege management for
Windows systems, today announced the launch of their new Channel Program.
Additionally, Avecto announced the appointment of two industry veterans to
lead this initiative - Rashied Akrum has been appointed Director of European
Business Development and Carina Rozendaal has been appointed Director of
European Channels. Both Akrum and Rozendaal bring a tremendous amount of
experience to Avecto, with an extensive track record of developing profitable
and sustainable partner channels for leading vendors such as Citrix,
Softricity and Microsoft.

The Avecto Channel Program is available to distributors and resellers in
mainland Europe and has been designed with the needs of today's channel
partners in mind, consisting of three levels of membership: Registered,
Consulting and Privileged Partners.

In the market for least privilege management solutions, the unique
ability to elevate Windows applications on demand, and manage user privileges
centrally, has enabled tremendous growth for Avecto over last year. "Partly
because of the Microsoft Windows 7 adoption, VDI interest and tighter
security and compliance regulations, we see a growing demand for secure,
compliant desktops that operate under the least privilege model. A skilled
network of partners will enable Avecto to scale and meet the implementation
and support demands of enterprise customers." says Paul Kenyon, VP of Sales
and Operations.

For distributors and partners the benefits include competitive margins,
licensing programs, joint marketing, lead campaigns and comprehensive sales
and technical support. "Partners are always in search for a competitive
advantage and new innovative products, to build their business to the
profitable next level. We believe that the Avecto Privilege Guard solution,
combined with the attractive partner benefits in the program, will bring the
essential value-add needed for a low risk/high return to partners who are
focused in the security and desktop market." says Rashied Akrum, Director of
European Business Development.
