The agreement, which began in 2024, reflects the growing importance of data security in Formula 1, where teams generate and process large volumes of information during each race weekend. This includes telemetry, race strategy, and internal communications that must remain protected both at the track and across team operations.
The partnership will be visible on the Williams car and driver gear throughout the 2026 season. At the Miami Grand Prix, Keeper will again have trackside visibility, marking its second consecutive year at the event and its only on-site race activation of the season.
Drivers Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon are part of the partnership’s broader visibility, appearing in campaign content tied to the 2026 season.

Behind the scenes, Williams uses Keeper’s platform to manage secure access across devices used by engineers and staff working both trackside and at headquarters. With personnel operating across multiple time zones, maintaining secure and reliable access to systems has become a key part of day-to-day performance.
The partnership reflects a broader shift within Formula 1, where protecting digital infrastructure is increasingly tied to competitive outcomes. Teams must safeguard sensitive designs, data, and communications while maintaining the speed and efficiency required in a global racing calendar.
Keeper Security was founded in 2011 by Darren Guccione and has since expanded to serve organizations and individual users worldwide.
