Computacenter is bolstering its European security services business with a tie-in with Austria's RadarServices, a provider of IT risk detection and response solutions.
“With organisations increasingly looking for security solutions that meet compliance standards for data privacy and services, this partnership will enable Computacenter to offer its customers enhanced cyber defence services by leveraging RadarServices' in-house risk detection and assessment technology,” said Computacenter. Its Cyber Defence Center will be in "constant communication" with the security analysts from RadarServices and together they promise to provide a thorough and detailed insight into the current threat situation worldwide.
RadarServices has its own research division and continually develops software that it says is capable of “identifying deviation” from standard data traffic, ensuring that previously unknown attack patterns and malware are “reliably and comprehensively detected and exposed”.
The offering also ensures that all customer data remains securely on premise and allows organisations to assess both traditional IT estates and new IoT infrastructures. As a result, Computacenter customers can now take advantage of an “early warning system” for their IT estate, says the IT services provider,
Jan Mueller, group director of security strategy, said: “The RadarService portfolio perfectly complements our own security portfolio and provides exciting additional capability with which we can secure our customers' IT.”
Computacenter has existing arrangements with the likes of Cisco, Check Point, CyberArk, FireEye and Symantec in offering network security, endpoint protection, risk management and reporting to infrastructure service clients, but the new alliance provides particular support in helping customers comply with GDPR and other compliance demands.
