IRVINE, CA--(Marketwired - Sep 13, 2016) - Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE: IM) today announced that Symantec Endpoint Protection Cloud has been added to the Ingram Micro Cloud Marketplace, a leading automated cloud services platform that enables partners to purchase, provision, manage, and invoice cloud technology with ease.

Symantec Endpoint Protection Cloud is a comprehensive cloud-based security management solution that helps small and mid-sized clients reduce vulnerabilities and security risks for endpoint systems.

"With the rise of BYOD and remote workplace innovation, businesses need the right security solutions to protect their infrastructure and data at all times from cyber threats," said Tarik Faouzi, vice president, Global Cloud Partners and Solutions, Ingram Micro. "We are pleased to strengthen our security offering with Symantec and provide our resellers additional tools and support to secure their clients' most important data."

Symantec Endpoint Protection Cloud provides a way for partners to manage their end-customers' security both in and outside of the corporate network. Managed from a centralized console, it combines the most comprehensive range of endpoint protection, management, mobility, and encryption into a single cloud-based solution to protect a growing number of devices such as PCs, tablets, mobile devices and servers. Symantec's comprehensive cloud-based security solution is easy to use and simple to set up, enabling partners to seamlessly deploy, manage, and secure their end-customers' devices quickly and with minimal resources.

"With cyber-attacks growing more complex every day, small and mid-sized businesses continue to be targeted so they need to respond by having a comprehensive security infrastructure in place," said May Mitchell, vice president, Worldwide Channel Marketing for Symantec. "Symantec Endpoint Protection Cloud is designed specifically for these organizations, delivering a highly flexible and manageable enterprise-class protection but at an affordable price point."

"Through Ingram Micro, we are well positioned to address our customers' most challenging security demands while offering a cost effective portfolio of solutions," said Dean A. Silloway, President, Silloway Networks, Inc. "We look forward to offering Symantec Endpoint Protection Cloud to our customers and providing them with the peace of mind knowing their infrastructure is secure."

The Ingram Micro Cloud Marketplace is an ecosystem that brings together buyers and sellers, enabling them to conduct business on a single platform.
