Samsung Knox Added to Carahsoft’s GSA Schedule 70 and SEWP V Contracts
Provides Public Sector With Streamlined Access to Samsung’s Defense-Grade Security Platform
“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 hardware and software security and container solutions with cloud-based enterprise mobility management services. Knox solutions* are available immediately through Carahsoft and its reseller partners via GSA Schedule No. GS-35F-0119Y and SEWP Contracts NNG15SC03B and NNG15SC27B.
