Our partners will have the opportunity to differentiate their security portfolios by offering Lieberman`s innovative privileged identity management solutions. I look forward to forging new, profitable alliances." The Lieberman Software Channel Partner Program The Lieberman Software Profitable Partner Program consists of three tiers.

Technical and sales support are provided by Lieberman Software personnel to ensure that partners have the skills and knowledge needed to confidently resell every Lieberman Software product.

Lieberman Software products are especially relevant to any organization running on the Microsoft Windows platform, in all vertical market segments. The company`s channel launch coincides with a growth trend for the IT security market, despite the current economic downturn. An April 2009 report from Forrester Research titled Market Overview: IT Security In 2009 states, "Total IT security spending in 2009 will grow 10.2% and reach $34 billion, with staffing included. Every category of IT security across products and managed services will experience growth in 2009…New IAM purchases will center around provisioning (especially for role management and auditing functions), privileged user password management (PUPM), and physical/logical convergence."¹ Lieberman Software pioneered the PUPM market by releasing the first product for this space in 2001.
