Williams achieve another milestone to deepen its financial strength

On the eve of last Sunday's Miami Grand Prix, Williams announced an early renewal and extension of their partnership with Keeper Security which is set to help protect the British team against cyber security threats.

Keeper is a provider of zero-trust and zero-knowledge Privileged Access Management (PAM) software protecting passwords, passkeys, privileged accounts, secrets and remote connections.

The firm joined Williams just 12 months ago on a multi-year agreement, and the two companies announced on the eve of last Sunday's Miami Grand Prix, that they agreed to an extension of their existing contract.

With each race producing terabytes of intellectual property, including race strategies, car designs and performance metrics, Williams use Keeper’s zero-trust and zero-knowledge privileged access management platform, KeeperPAM to ensure security.

Commenting on the contract extension, team boss James Vowles stated: “In Formula 1, information is power – and protecting that information is critical. Over the past year Keeper Security have been trusted partners in safeguarding our competitive edge and we are proud that they have chosen to re-commit to Atlassian Williams Racing.

"This early renewal is another strong endorsement of the relationships we build with our partners and our plan to return to the front of the grid.”

Reflecting on the new deal, Keeper Security's CEO and Co-Founder Darren Guccione commented: “We’re thrilled to continue our synergistic partnership with Atlassian Williams Racing as part of our strategy in forging long-term relationships with industry-leading innovators.

"Like Formula 1 racing, cybersecurity focuses on strengthening finite details that create a clear pathway of success. Our continued partnership and work with Williams is both fun and inspiring.”
