U.S. Cyber Security Company Fuels Its Security and Disaster Recovery Practice With Faction's Enterprise-Class Cloud

DENVER, CO--(Marketwired - Mar 22, 2016) - Faction, an enterprise-class Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud provider offering hybrid and multi-cloud solutions, announces today that BluePrint Information Management and Security Services, Inc. (BIMASS), an information technology and cyber security service provider, is now reselling Faction Cloud services. As a Faction reseller, BIMASS will offer the Faction cloud service portfolio to its customers, which includes flexible and fully customizable cloud building blocs for hybrid environments, dedicated, private plug-and-play Layer 2 Direct Connect network topology and direct access to Faction's Advanced Solutions Team for hands-on design and support. Through the Faction partnership, BIMASS provides its clients a more robust, secure and cost effective IT solution backed by a 100% availability SLA and hands-on support to its end users.

As experts in the security industry, BIMASS requires a flexible infrastructure with 100% uptime and high availability. BIMASS's security and disaster recovery services are designed to help clients meet their compliance requirements without having to invest in it themselves, which lowers their costs and increases efficiency at the same time. The company leverages Faction to support its security-as-a-service practice and works in lockstep with the Faction team to design resilient solutions for its clients, across a wide array of industries, including healthcare, retail, energy, mechanical, and government.

"BIMASS was looking for a cloud platform that not only had the technical expertise, but also the sales and marketing resources that would help us optimize our customer engagements," comments Kevin Baker, President of BluePrint Information Management and Security Services. "We know that with Faction, we are partnering with a cloud provider that powers our brand and extends our reach via its multiple locations, throughout North America. The entire Faction team is very responsive and instills a high level of confidence that we made the right choice by partnering with them."

"By partnering with Faction, service providers such as BIMASS don't have to build out their own cloud practice, so they can resell cloud in just days and save substantially on the overhead with IT resources and staff," states Luke Norris, Chief Executive Officer of Faction. "This dynamic helps our service providers achieve an advantage over their competitors who have to maintain costly infrastructures. In addition to reselling, our partners can also use the Faction cloud internally to support their own IT environments and gain an instant presence in eight cloud node geographies globally. We are thrilled that BIMASS finds high value in Faction, and we look forward to working closely on customer deployments, identifying new clients for them and helping them build a robust portfolio of services."

Purpose-built for enterprises, Faction cloud nodes are located in Type II SSAE 16 SOC 2, HIPAA compliant and PCI capable locations in eight geographies across the U.S. and Europe.
