IGEL expands global footprint with entry into Latin America through Adistec partnership. Sep 29, 2026, 09:00 ET Partnership establishes IGEL's regional presence, extending its Adaptive Secure Endpoint Platform(TM) and partner ecosystem to enterprises across the market FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Sept. 29, 2026 /CNW/ - IGEL(R), a global software company delivering the IGEL Adaptive Secure Endpoint Platform(TM), today announced at Omnissa ONE 2026 its entry into the Latin American market through a strategic distribution agreement with Adistec, marking the latest step in the company's global expansion. Under the agreement, Adistec will become a new IGEL distribution partner for the region, supporting resellers, system integrators, and technology service providers with technical enablement, training, business development, and go-to-market resources. The partnership will expand access to IGEL across Latin America while helping channel partners build expertise and develop new customer opportunities. The partnership comes as organizations across Latin America face continued pressure to secure how users and devices access enterprise resources. According to IBM's 2026 X-Force Threat Intelligence Index, the leading initial-access vectors IBM observed in Latin America included valid accounts, exploitation of public-facing applications, software supply-chain attacks, and abuse of external remote services, each accounting for 25% of observed cases. That pressure is also reflected in recent industry research: Gartner has recommended that CISOs move toward a Workspace Immutable Secure Endpoint (WISE) model, and Forrester's 2027 budget planning guidance recommends evaluating secure desktop operating systems in higher-risk environments. "For organizations across Latin America, endpoint strategy is becoming increasingly connected to broader security, cloud, and secure-access decisions," said Phil Eden, Vice President of Channels Sales for North America, IGEL. "Adistec brings regional expertise and channel relationships to help partners address that opportunity. Together, we can bring IGEL's secure endpoint approach into a wider range of customer environments while continuing to support VDI, DaaS, Zero Trust and SASE architectures, enterprise browser environments, SaaS access, BC&DR and modern workspace requirements." Bringing the Endpoint into the Security Architecture The IGEL Adaptive Secure Endpoint Platform(TM) provides a secure, centrally managed endpoint foundation for modern digital workspaces and secure access. At its foundation is the IGEL Preventative Security Model(R), which begins with an immutable endpoint operating system and extends through attested workload delivery, centralized governance, contextual enforcement, and broad ecosystem integration. The platform operationalizes this model through three planes: IGEL OS as the execution plane, Universal Management Suite(TM)(UMS(TM) as the control plane, and the IGEL App Portal(R) as the data plane. Together, these capabilities enable organizations to centrally manage compatible endpoint hardware and provide access to SaaS, DaaS, VDI, enterprise browsers, and supported enterprise applications while minimizing endpoint attack surface and local data exposure. IGEL Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery(TM)(IGEL BC&DR(TM) extends this platform approach into business continuity and cyber resilience. For supported environments, it provides organizations with an endpoint recovery path that can restore secure access on Windows endpoints affected by ransomware, other cyberattacks, or outages. This combination allows Adistec partners to bring IGEL into a broader range of customer initiatives, from traditional VDI and DaaS environments to Zero Trust and SASE architectures, secure enterprise browsers, regulated industries, manufacturing and frontline environments, and business continuity planning. Expanding the Opportunity for Latin American Channel Partners With more than 20 years of experience developing technology channels in Latin America, Adistec provides regional sales, technical, marketing, logistics, training, professional services, and business development capabilities across IT infrastructure, cybersecurity, virtualization and cloud technologies. Its channel-focused model combines distribution with partner development, technical and commercial enablement, opportunity development, and go-to-market support. "Adding IGEL to our portfolio represents an important opportunity for Adistec and our partners across Latin America," said Ramiro Rios, Business Development Manager, Adistec. "Endpoint strategy is increasingly connected to the broader decisions organizations are making around cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, and secure access. IGEL gives our partners another way to address those requirements while supporting customers' existing technology environments." Through the partnership, Adistec and IGEL will focus on helping partners build IGEL expertise, identify customer opportunities, and develop complementary services around deployment, migration, and endpoint lifecycle operations. Partners will also be able to position IGEL alongside complementary security and infrastructure technologies represented in Adistec's portfolio, where supported and appropriate, as part of broader digital workspace, security, cloud and resilience initiatives. As enterprises adopt cloud-delivered applications, virtual workspaces, enterprise browsers, and identity- and network-based security controls, IGEL and Adistec will work with partners to strengthen the endpoint layer within broader modernization and security strategies across the region.

IGEL expands its endpoint offering for the healthcare and industrial sectors with Teguar hardware. Aug 28, 2026, 09:00 ET Teguar's specially designed medical and industrial systems offer compatible hardware options for IGEL deployments in specialized endpoint environments. Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Aug. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - IGEL(R), a global software company offering the IGEL Adaptive Secure Endpoint Platform(TM), today announced that Teguar has joined the IGEL Ready ecosystem, with selected hardware validated for use with IGEL OS. This partnership provides customers with additional hardware options for endpoint deployment in healthcare, industrial, warehouse, and other specialized operational environments. Teguar develops custom computing systems for environments where standard commercial devices do not always meet environmental, durability, or workflow requirements. Its range includes rugged, sealed industrial computers, as well as all-in-one computers and tablets designed for healthcare environments. IGEL complements this hardware with IGEL OS, an immutable operating system for secure endpoint access, and the IGEL Universal Management Suite(TM)(UMS(TM)), which enables centralized management of policies, configuration, software distribution, updates, and the endpoint fleet in distributed endpoint environments. "Enterprises are extending secure access to environments where endpoint reliability, physical resilience, and centralized governance are all critical factors," said Jim Airdo, senior vice president of strategic alliances at IGEL.

IGEL brings Now & Next Workspace & Endpoint Security Summit to Melbourne, Australia. The event brings together customers, partners, and industry leaders to advance endpoint security, resilience, and secure workspace delivery. MELBOURNE, Australia, Aug. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - IGEL(R), a global software company delivering the IGEL Adaptive Secure Endpoint Platform(TM), today announced it is bringing the IGEL Now & Next(R) Workspace & Endpoint Security Summit to Melbourne, Australia, for a showcase on September 17, 2026, at Park Hyatt Melbourne. The one-day program will bring together IT and security leaders to examine the endpoint security, resilience, and workspace delivery priorities shaping enterprise strategy across the region. The Melbourne event extends IGEL's flagship Now & Next(R) series following its five-city European roadshow earlier this year. It arrives as organizations across healthcare, government, transportation, and critical infrastructure weigh the cost of replacing endpoint hardware against the need to keep operations running through disruption. "What we are hearing from customers is consistent: organizations want stronger control at the endpoint, greater resilience when disruption occurs, and a practical path to support both current and emerging workspace models," said Klaus Oestermann, CEO of IGEL. "The Now & Next(R) summit roadshow is designed to bring those conversations closer to home, together with the customers and ecosystem partners, helping define the next phase of endpoint strategy." The summit will bring together IGEL leaders, customers, and ecosystem partners to share perspectives on secure endpoint strategy, resilience, and the future of digital work. IGEL executives and technical leaders will anchor the program, with Klaus Oestermann, CEO, and Matthias Haas, Managing Director and CTO, leading sessions on IGEL strategy and the IGEL Adaptive Secure Desktop(R) in contact center and healthcare environments. Sterling Wilson, Field CTO for BC&DR, will address endpoint resilience and business continuity, while James Millington, Field CTO for Healthcare, EMEA, will explore clinical workspace delivery and IT/OT convergence. Complementing the IGEL-led sessions, customers and ecosystem partners will bring real-world perspectives and expertise to the program, including event sponsors Nutanix, NVIDIA, Omnissa, and UltrArmor. "As organizations rethink the endpoint as a more controlled, resilient, and centrally governed part of the security architecture, the discussion is shifting from device management alone to recovery, governance, and continuity," Oestermann added. "That is the conversation we want to lead in Melbourne." The summit runs from morning sessions through the afternoon customer panel and networking happy hour at Park Hyatt Melbourne, 1 Parliament Square. Attendance is open to enterprise IT and security leaders across Australia and New Zealand.
