Solution provider superstar Sentinel Technologies believes 2020 will be the year of secure data transformation as the decade of “data is the new oil” is officially under way, according to Chief Technology Officer Robert Keblusek.

“Customers are rearchitecting applications, migrating to and consuming cloud services, modernizing networks and starting their journeys in machine learning and artificial intelligence,” said Keblusek, whose Downers Grove, Ill.-based company ranks No. 108 on CRN’s 2019 Solution Provider 500 list. “We must enable our customers to get more from their data while keeping it safe and secure.”

Sentinel Technologies is one of the country’s most innovative solution providers and is racing ahead of the pack with a top-notch enterprise life-cycle services practice and consulting arm, which witnessed over 100 percent revenue growth in 2019 year over year. Keblusek has more than 25 years of experience as a solution provider and helped make Sentinel Technologies, which made CRN’s 2019 Tech Elite 250, into a top Cisco Systems, Dell Technologies and Microsoft partner.

Here is where Sentinel Technologies is placing its investment bets in 2020.
