(1888PressRelease) December 21, 2011 - SANTA CLARA, Calif - This annual list salutes individual channel executives for continuing to change the way the channel does business to increase partner sales while shaping their own organization's future.

CRN's 2011 Top 100 Executives list was based on nominations from solution providers who rated channel vendor executives based on influence, effectiveness and viability, as well as business and sales impact. The CRN Editorial team judged nominees based on sales volume, channel investment and advocacy, and performance in 2011 CRN research projects such as Channel Champs and the Annual Report Card.

eGestalt's cloud-computing, SaaS- based HIPAA/HITECH and PCI compliance solution, SecureGRC, offers low cost and peace of mind to channel partners servicing SMBs to large enterprises, including medical providers and their Business Associates.

SecureGRC has been widely adopted by numerous channel partners who offer security and compliance services thereby gaining entry into the lucrative markets of compliance and security, including healthcare IT, one of the fastest growing segments for the MSP business.

"We are honored to have Jim Hare receive so much recognition from the channel community," said Anupam Sahai, President, eGestalt. "Jim knows how eGestalt partners are making tremendous gains by reaching out to covered entities' Business Associates who must also comply with HIPAA/HITECH and PCI regulations. These BAs are desperate for a simple, low-cost cloud solution like SecureGRC, and partners can add bundled services to the deal for additional profit-making opportunities."

eGestalt's channel strategy involves the certification of Managed Compliance Providers (MCPs), a channel program based around a proprietary "cookbook" that serves as an introduction and training guide for partners just getting started with delivering managed compliance services.
