RESTON, Va., (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Carahsoft Technology Corp., the Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider®, today announced that it has been named Global Distributor of the Year by FireEye. The award was presented at FireEye Momentum 2020, the company’s annual sales kick-off. Each award recognizes the achievements of the top FireEye partners in 2019, highlighting their contributions to help protect customers around the world and also the growth of their security business with FireEye.
“We are honored to be recognized again by FireEye as an entrusted distributor,” said Chris Clarke, Director of the FireEye partnership at Carahsoft. “It is great to have a partner that shares our passion for protecting customers against even the most sophisticated attacks.

We look forward to working with them and our reseller partners on innovative cybersecurity strategies in 2020 and beyond.”
