ST. LOUIS (PRWEB) September 10, 2014
Global Velocity, a developer of Information-Centric Security (ICS) solutions, announces the launch of its Securio Channel Partner Program to enable resellers to increase sales and help their customers rapidly detect and prevent data breaches, and achieve and maintain their compliance and governance requirements. Global Velocity’s Securio platform enables organizations to get a clear picture of the location of sensitive data, where it is going, who is sending it, how it is getting there, and if it is secure. Because Securio is simple to deploy and manage, resellers can use the solution to extend their cybersecurity product and services offerings. They can also open new revenue streams by using the solution to perform vulnerability assessments, security audits, and to develop various managed service offerings.
Global Velocity CEO Greg Sullivan said, “Trusted advisors are critical in the security world for customers. Small-and medium-sized businesses struggle with complicated cybersecurity systems and are not prepared to defend themselves. They must turn to their trusted advisors to help businesses protect their data from the inside out. It is these trusted advisors Global Velocity is seeking with the launch of the Securio Channel Partner Program.”
With the proliferation of cloud and mobile computing the evolving cyber security threat landscape requires security consulting firms and resellers to help their customers protect business information. This information is increasingly stored in the cloud and accessible by employees on their personal laptops and mobile devices. The traditional approaches of hardening the network and guarding information from the outside-in with antivirus and data loss prevention (DLP) solutions are growing increasingly ineffective against today’s sophisticated attacks. In addition, the growth of cloud computing services means that a company’s security strategies must address the rising amount of information stored outside a company’s servers.
Since Securio software can be based in the cloud, the Partner Program launch enables resellers to immediately build their capability around this new protection strategy. Companies have nothing to install, making the software easy to deploy, roll out and manage. Securio can be configured for the enterprise and the cloud, generating more opportunities for sales.
“Too much information security spending still focuses on the prevention of attacks, while not enough has been done to create or improve information monitoring and response capabilities,” Sullivan added. “Security officers often measure success by the number of intrusion attempts thwarted. Cyber thieves measure success by the quantity and quality of data they are able to steal. We should also be measuring our success and failures from the perspective of the data.”
The Global Velocity Channel Partner Program includes the launch of a partner portal, which will provide specialized services such as private training. For more information, please visit: http://www.globalvelocity.com/partners/channel-partners.
