New features across the portfolio are designed to simplify and secure IoT solutions from cloud to the edge, according to Azure IoT executive Sam George (pictured).

The sprawling new product family includes a multi-layered edge and endpoint security solution, a purpose-built data protection infrastructure system, and a set of APIs and developer tools for connecting third-party solutions and services to those systems.

The deal, which is Akamai’s first with a distributor, is the latest step in a larger effort by Tech Data to give partners broader access to cloud-native security solutions.

Enhancements unveiled today include new managed detection and response capabilities, a solution MSPs can use to better protect their own assets, and new automation functionality for the vendor’s RMM solution.

The vendor’s new Secure Internet Gateway is designed to keep mobile users and devices safe both on and off of corporate networks.

The day-long event gathers channel pros and security experts to discuss insights, research, and best security practices for the Internet of Things.
