Tue, 3rd Feb 2026

11:11 Systems has named Data#3, Perfekt and Secureware as the Asia-Pacific winners of its 2025 Partner Awards.

The managed infrastructure provider said the awards focus on partner work across cloud, security and digital transformation projects delivered to customers in the region. The company said the programme is its first partner awards scheme for Asia-Pacific.

11:11 Systems said it selected recipients based on partner collaboration, technical delivery and customer focus. It also cited financial performance and deployments involving its resilient cloud platform.

Regional winners

Data#3 received the Partner of the Year award. Perfekt won Accelerator of the Year. Secureware won Rising Star of the Year.

11:11 Systems did not disclose customer names, project details, contract values, or the number of partners assessed for the awards. It also did not publish judging criteria beyond the stated areas of collaboration, technical delivery, customer outcomes and financial performance.

The company positioned the programme against a backdrop of higher cyber risk for organisations operating in Asia-Pacific.

"Organisations across the Asia-Pacific region are facing cyberattacks that are increasing in both pace and impact. When downtime and remediation are factored in, the cost to businesses can run into the millions," said Marc Beder, General Manager of APAC at 11:11 Systems. "In this environment, our partners play a critical role in helping customers build robust cyber resilience, networking, and cloud strategies. This award recognises Data#3, Perfekt and Secureware for simplifying that complexity and safeguarding mission-critical data, enabling customers to stay focused on innovation and growth. We congratulate them on their achievements and the outstanding outcomes they continue to deliver for our shared customers across APAC."

Partner channel

11:11 Systems said partners play a central role in customer deployments involving its cloud, networking, backup, cyber, disaster recovery and security offerings. The company described itself as a managed infrastructure solutions provider. It said it works with organisations that run mission-critical applications and manage sensitive data.

The company framed the awards as recognition for partners involved in cyber resilience and digital transformation work. It pointed to an "evolving threat landscape" as a factor shaping demand for services related to backup, disaster recovery and security operations.

The awards in Asia-Pacific sit within a common channel model across the cloud and security market, where vendors sell and deliver services through systems integrators, managed service providers and specialist consultancies. These partner firms often deliver implementation and ongoing management work. They also provide industry-specific consulting and integration with other platforms.

Company profiles

Data#3 is an Australian IT services and solutions provider that works across cloud, security, modern workplace and data centre services. It also operates a large vendor ecosystem. The company serves government and enterprise customers in Australia.

Perfekt and Secureware both operate in the Australian market and provide security and technology services. 11:11 Systems did not specify which customer engagements or deployments contributed to their awards.

11:11 Systems said it plans to continue the partner recognition programme in the region. It also said it will keep working with partners on cloud, networking, backup, disaster recovery and security projects across Asia-Pacific.
