NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--
Business Technology Partners, Inc. (BTP), a premier New York City-based IT
consulting and managed services firm, today announced strategic partnerships
with two different companies: Fortinet, a market-leading network security
provider and worldwide leader of unified threat management (UTM) solutions; and
Peer Software, Inc., a global provider of enterprise-grade file synchronization,
file replication and file collaboration solutions for hundreds of Fortune 500
companies and government agencies. These partnerships will allow BTP to provide
both leading edge data security and protection and file collaboration solutions.


Through PeerSync, BTP will provide collaboration and file sharing tools to their
client base. Often utilized by the construction, engineering and architectural
industries, the Peer "CAD" Collaboration solution offers server-to-server file
mirroring between a company`s office sites with integrated file locking to
prevent version conflicts. The solution includes a number of features
indispensable to large CAD projects: ByteReplicator, allowing for the transfer
only of modified data during synchronization (instead of copying over the entire
file); Multi-Threading, which allows for parallel processing of multiple file
transfer events between source machine(s) and target machine(s); and PeerLock,
which ensures that when a user is modifying a file, no other user will be
allowed to make changes to that file on any machine that the user has chosen to
lock. 

Thanks to their partner agreement with Fortinet, BTP will be able to offer a
world class unified threat management tool (UTM) to its client base. An
integrated device on all Fortinet appliances, the UTM automatically performs
updates and includes firewall protection, website filtering capabilities, secure
remote VPN access, anti-virus, anti-spam, and intrusion prevention measures.
Ensuring data security and confidentiality inside the corporate network has
become a growing concern for companies dealing with private information. The UTM
tool keeps data inside of the network and can refuse applications and block the
ability to send unlawful attachments. 

"Today's businesses are dealing with new challenges in protecting their data,
providing Internet usage policies, and providing their teams with secure and
reliable access to files and information. Our new partnerships with Peer
Software and Fortinet will enable BTP to quickly respond to customer demands by
deploying highly targeted solutions to better suit their evolving needs in these
critical areas," said Joshua E. Aaron, President of Business Technology
Partners," said Joshua E. Aaron, President of Business Technology Partners. 

BTP`s expertise is in many facets of IT including technology infrastructure and
applications, network management, IT Support, telecommunications, audiovisual
and security systems. For more information BTP`s partnerships or general
