Carahsoft to Serve as Master Government Aggregator

RESTON, VA, November 19, 2009 –Carahsoft Technology Corp., the trusted government IT solutions provider, today announced that it has been named Master Government Aggregator by Trust Digital, the leader in enterprise mobility management (EMM®) for smartphones. The announcement was made in conjunction with the launch of Trust Digital’s new global reseller partner program which is designed to meet the rapidly growing demand for iPhone management solutions for enterprises worldwide.

"We are pleased to extend our relationship with Trust Digital through their new global reseller partner program," said Craig P. Abod, Carahsoft president.  "This program increases Trust Digital’s ability to deliver mobility management capabilities to government agencies looking to harness the power of the iPhone and other emerging smartphones for employee use."

In its role as master government aggregator, Carahsoft will continue to carry Trust Digital’s products on its GSA schedule, proactively generate demand and awareness for Trust Digital’s solution with the public sector market place, and help expand the government reseller network through partnerships with BlackBerry and other smartphone technology resellers.
