eGestalt Technologies today announced it has been selected by UBM Channel and CRN as a 2012 Emerging Technology Vendor.

Santa Clara, CA, September 06, 2012 — For the second year in a row, eGestalt Technologies ( http://www.eGestalt.com ), a provider of IT security monitoring and compliance management for SMBs and enterprises, today announced it has been selected by UBM Channel and CRN as a 2012 Emerging Technology Vendor.

The annual list features the most innovative vendors who not only deliver technology that is easy to use, but can generate the high margins solution providers require. The vendors that make up the CRN Emerging Technology Vendor list were founded in 2006 or later, have revenue under $1 billion and have an active U.S. channel strategy.

eGestalt’s SecureGRC product is a unified security and compliance management solution that includes all of the necessary security and IT-GRC functionality required to gain control and improve compliance levels across more than 400+ regulations. It offers a simplified approach for PCI/HIPAA/HITECH security and compliance management that provides low cost and peace of mind to channel partners servicing SMBs to large enterprises, including medical providers and their Business Associates.

The solution is designed from the ground up to make channel partners profitable within a week. Through enhanced content, the solution demystifies complex regulations and standards and is customizable for partners to add-on additional services.

Among these “Emerging Vendors” are companies that have already established themselves in their market segment and others that are already making an impact despite a recent launch. Each organization on the list represents a new partnership and go-to-market opportunity for solution providers looking to identify new vendor partners.

While the framework allows for the easy plug-in of any regulation or standard, eGestalt currently offers to the channel ready-to-roll compliance services with built-in frameworks to support the most stringent and popular regulations including HIPAA, HITECH, PCI, SOX, ISO, and COBIT (as well as more country-specific regulations).

Completely automated with integrated IT security monitoring, SecureGRC offers a unified security assessment and compliance service delivered from the cloud, which means that the solution is constantly kept up-to-date with the latest versions and revisions of relevant regulations/standards. With no hardware involved, SecureGRC delivers to partners and their customers an assurance that compliance mandates are met with a solution that is timely and future-proof.

“We invite IT security service providers to join our Managed Channel Provider (MCP) program,” says eGestalt President Anupam Sahai. “We give all our partners a fast ramp-up to providing security and compliance services through a program based around our own “MCP Cookbook,” which gives a step-by-step plan on how to get started with delivering managed compliance services through creation of collateral, training, implementation, delivery and on-going playbooks as the business is up and running.”

“Emerging doesn’t mean what it used to,” said Kelley Damore, VP, Editorial Director, UBM Channel. “With new innovations like cloud computing and virtualization speeding up the pace of innovation, and technology mainstays like storage and networking branching off into new directions, this list encapsulates a tectonic technology shift where the recently founded are starting to rule the roost and become household names much more quickly than in the past.”

Final selection to the Emerging Technology Vendor list was made by the CRN editorial team after a review of submitted information. To view a sample of the list and read the editorial accompaniment visit http://www.CRN.com.
