UK Connect, renowned as one of the UK's fastest-growing technology partners within the construction and defence sectors, has announced a new strategic partnership with ShelterZoom, a pioneering name in cybersecurity SaaS solutions.

The alliance centres around ShelterZoom's cutting-edge blockchain-powered tokenisation platform, designed to enhance file security and prevent data losses, leaks, and breaches beyond the traditional network perimeter. This partnership will empower UK Connect and its affiliates by granting access to robust tools like Document GPS®, aimed at fortifying document control, visibility, and security.

This strategic move follows a phase of rapid expansion for UK Connect, extending its influence across the construction, defence, and manufacturing sectors, with a renewed focus on sustaining high-standard data protection both internally and externally.

Joe Budnar-Hunt, CEO of UK Connect, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration, highlighting the necessity to align with top-notch security standards to safeguard data for both the company and its clients. "ShelterZoom’s Document GPS solution protects data in the event of a cyberattack, future-proofs our operations and enables us to engage with customers in complete confidence," he emphasised, noting the partnership's role in reinforcing the company's dedication to delivering exemplary customer experiences.

UK Connect aims to weave ShelterZoom’s solutions into its daily workflows, thus offering clients state-of-the-art systems for controlling, tracking, and securely sharing digital assets and documents. This integration promises to streamline information exchange processes, mitigate risks, and enhance operational efficiency across UK Connect and its network of partners.

James Smith, General Manager at ShelterZoom, shared his aspirations, "Our goal is to empower organisations to secure their digital assets in ways that weren’t previously possible with legacy systems. The moment I first met the team from UK Connect, I could see they shared the same values as we do, which made them the perfect partner for us. I look forward to working with Joe and everyone at UK Connect and am excited about what we can achieve together.”
