Williams Racing Chooses Keeper Security to Safeguard Data in Formula 1’s High-Stakes, Data-Driven World

Keeper Security’s zero-trust, zero-knowledge cybersecurity solutions empower Williams Racing to securely manage sensitive data, streamline operations and protect critical assets

CHICAGO, IL – November 22, 2024 – Keeper Security, the leading provider of zero-trust and zero-knowledge cybersecurity software protecting passwords, passkeys, privileged access, secrets and remote connections, today announces the release of an in-depth case study highlighting the critical role its solutions play in safeguarding the vast amounts of data used by Williams Racing in the high-stakes world of Formula 1. As one of the most data-driven sports in the world, Formula 1 teams rely on advanced systems to safeguard their highly sensitive data and maintain competitive edge – making cybersecurity more important than ever.

Keeper® plays a crucial role in securing Williams Racing’s business services, including contracts, commercial insights, financial data and more. Additionally, Williams Racing generates terabytes of data from race strategies to car designs and performance metrics every race weekend. A successful cyber attack against the team could be devastating with the potential to jeopardize intellectual property, compromise sensitive data and even disrupt operations, both at the team’s headquarters and at the track. For Williams Racing, securing this information is non-negotiable, and Keeper’s solutions are the perfect fit to protect their valuable assets.

“Formula 1 is a highly competitive environment where every advantage matters,” said Darren Guccione, CEO and Co-Founder of Keeper Security. “Our partnership with Williams Racing is about more than just securing their IT infrastructure and sensitive information – it’s about providing a secure foundation so the team can leverage data to drive performance while mitigating the risks associated with cyber threats.”

“We need data,” said James Vowles, Team Principal at Williams Racing. “ We need cybersecurity. We need IT infrastructure. And we need the ability for people to work in a safe environment. And that’s irrespective of whether they are here in the United Kingdom or anywhere else in the world.”

The real-world impact of Keeper’s password security solutions is documented in the case study, which delves into the key outcomes for Williams Racing, including:

• Enhanced Security for Critical Data – With Keeper’s zero-knowledge architecture, Williams Racing is able to keep sensitive information fully protected – like race strategies, designs and telemetry data. Keeper’s advanced password management ensures the team’s business services remain secure and resilient against unauthorized access.
• Improved Operational Efficiency – Keeper’s centralized password management system streamlines credential management, saving the team valuable time during high-pressure race weekends and allowing them to stay focused on their core goals.
• Seamless Global Access with High-Level Protection – By integrating Keeper’s solutions across its global workforce, Williams Racing can securely provide team members with the access they need, whether at the race track, in remote locations or back at their headquarters, all while ensuring that sensitive data remains protected against potential cyber threats.
