Cisco Veteran Joins Appgate Channel Team

Marc Inderhees to Lead New Managed Service Provider Program

Miami, FL – Dec. 9, 2021 – Appgate (OTC: APGT), the secure access company, announces that Cisco veteran Marc Inderhees has joined its team as the new Senior Director, MSP Channel Sales. Inderhees is heading the strategy and execution of Appgate’s new Managed Service Provider (MSP) Program that helps partners maximize the value of Appgate SDP, an industry-leading Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) solution, through comprehensive technical training, robust enablement and 24/7 dedicated technical support.

“Zero Trust is a critical part of any MSP’s cybersecurity discussion in today’s dynamic threat environment,” said Inderhees. “Appgate has cemented itself as a leader in Zero Trust security and our recently launched MSP Program empowers our partners to bundle an enterprise-grade access management solution into their stack, at a price point that provides both profitability and operational efficiency.”

For MSPs, Zero Trust-based technology must be a vital part of the security portfolio to keep client data, networks and applications safe and ensure future growth. According to Gartner, “By 2025, at least 70% of new remote access deployments will be served predominantly by ZTNA as opposed to VPN services, up from less than 10% at the end of 2021.”¹ This market growth presents a significant opportunity for MSPs to differentiate themselves.

With more than 25 years of experience in partner sales, channel leadership and business development, Inderhees brings a proven track record in leading channel go-to-market (GTM) strategies and profitable partner programs. Prior to joining Appgate, Inderhees spent 16 years in the Cisco Global Partner Organization, the last five years driving the company’s MSP channel strategy and GTM.

“Marc has a tremendous amount of experience developing and driving the go-to-market strategy for global channel partner programs and growing and accelerating company revenues via partner managed services,” said Tina Gravel, Senior Vice President of Global Channels and Alliances, Appgate. “Our goal is to arm our partners with a seamless and accessible approach to Zero Trust Network Access that helps them enable customer success. Marc is the perfect person to lead Appgate’s MSP channel sales strategy and GTM and help drive our continued commitment to Zero Trust.”

Purpose-built to meet the new requirements of modern, hybrid enterprise IT, the Appgate SDP platform provides MSPs with a powerful Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)-as-a-service solution that is easy to deploy and manage at scale, while simultaneously providing secure access for their customers. Appgate’s MSP Program provides access to a comprehensive set of resources to help partners succeed, including sales tools, marketing resources, training and support and marketing development funds.
