Today, accelerated cloud adoption and hybrid work require security to expand beyond the traditional network perimeter, making edge security a paramount focus.
CRN’s fourth-annual Edge Computing 100 list honors trailblazing vendors leading the channel with next-generation technology that helps build edge solutions for Edge Hardware, Edge Software and Services; IoT and 5G Edge Services; and Edge Security.
Check Point was recognized in the Edge Security category for providing a unified Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solution with high-speed internet security. Over the past year, we’ve expanded our portfolio of services by acquiring Perimeter 81, a pioneer in security service edge (SSE) technologies, and Atmosec, a SaaS security vendor. The integration of both Perimeter 81 and Atmosec into our Infinity architecture delivers a complete SASE offering encompassing internet access, zero-trust private access, SaaS security, and SD-WAN.
“The 2023 Edge Computing 100 list presents a remarkable occasion for CRN to acknowledge pioneering vendors who are providing the technology to construct distinctive edge solutions,” said Jennifer Follett, VP, U.S Content, Executive Editor, The Channel Company. “These companies enable channel partners to help customers operate more efficiently and derive maximum value from their data. We extend our congratulations to all those who have been honored on this year’s list.”
“Quantum SASE is key to addressing the requirements of the modern workforce, and we take pride in our ongoing commitment to innovation,” said Francisco Criado, VP, Worldwide Partner Ecosystem. “As a channel-centric organization, we are honored by CRN’s recognition of our achievements. We look forward to continuing to build strong partner programs that drive channel engagement and success.”
The 2023 Edge Computing 100 list will be featured in a special November issue of CRN Magazine and online at www.crn.com/edge100.
