Tech Data is bringing its Digital Cybersecurity Practice Builder programme to Europe. Based on Tech Data’s Practice Builder methodology, the programme aims to help Tech Data customers through a structured curriculum that enables them to accelerate their business transformations by building their own robust and specialised digital cybersecurity practices.
The cybersecurity market is expected to present significant growth opportunities in the next four years. However, the market is highly fragmented, rapidly changing and suffers from a global skills shortage, all factors which the Digital Cybersecurity Practice Builder aims to address. David Ellis, vice president, Security and Mobility Solutions, Europe, Tech Data, said, “Our Digital Security Practice Builder helps our channel partners define what they need to build a cybersecurity practice that offers unique, cost-effective and value-added solutions to their end customers. Our team has created a rich online experience for partners on the programme, including great multimedia content and supporting assets.”
Already a successful programme for Tech Data partners in the US, the Digital Cybersecurity Practice Builder is offered free of charge to channel partners in Europe and involves the following three-step process supported by in-house cybersecurity experts:
• The process begins with an assessment to understand the customer organisation’s transformation readiness and gain insights on the opportunities for growth and development.
• Step two is focused on increasing specialist knowledge through a number of cybersecurity education modules
• Finally, the program facilitates the vendor-specific enablement and certifications necessary to enable the partner to take its digital cybersecurity solutions to market.
The on-demand Digital Cybersecurity Practice Builder aims to offer connection with Tech Data's dedicated security experts in order to discuss strategy development, training and enablement, marketing services and sales execution and includes a dedicated module for managed service providers.
