Security is, without doubt, emerging as one of the most important elements in IT planning and implementation. The risk of viruses, unauthorised data access, uncontrolled e-mail correspondence, data manipulation and misuse of access to the Internet can lurk in networks in the very heart of the infrastructure. Tools such as antivirus and IAM help to protect against Malware, but hackers are finding new ways to compromise information security, and IT managers need to have effective policies to cover risk management, data protection and business continuity too.

The security functions within organisations now need to be an integral part of modern information technology in order to minimise the risks. Many companies, however, still lack integrated, synchronised monitoring and security systems.

As the number of Internet users continues to increase, emails sent worldwide daily bring about a flood of unsolicited advertising mails (Spam). According to estimates up to 13 billion unsolicited advertising and mass emails chase through the net each day and the trend is rising. The growing number of messages greatly impairs the business use of the Internet.

Companies need security solutions, which are prepared for internal and external attacks. An integrated and scalable strategy is required. That means specifically: supplementing central security systems that generally consist of firewalls and virus scanners, with solutions such as content security management, authentication and the latest encryption technologies. In addition intrusion detection systems, virtual private networks (VPNs) and PKI solutions number amongst the standard components of a comprehensive security solution.

We partner with a number of the industry's leading security providers to ensure that we can offer a comprehensive portfolio of solutions to meet all your security needs.
