“We’re excited to partner with Carahsoft to add a critical layer of modern data resiliency to Public Sector organizations that play such a critical role in our society,” said Traci LeDuc, VP of Sales & Channel at CrashPlan. “Whether it’s acute incidents like data breaches, stolen laptops or ransomware attacks, or the everyday challenges of device migration and system updates, CrashPlan provides customers with powerfully simple protection and the confidence to operate in our hyper-connected, data-driven and risk-laden world.”

Under the agreement, CrashPlan will now be available to Carahsoft’s Public Sector customers and reseller partners.
