Another area it offers support is by helping organisations deal with the global shortage of cybersecurity professionals by developing solutions that are easy to deploy, learn and manage.“ This is so even resource-constrained organisations can build robust defences,” Micheal says.“ Our partnerships with managed service providers( MSPs) and general partners further extend our capabilities, ensuring that businesses can tap into expert support while leveraging the power of our technology.”
How data centres can improve their cyber resilience To bolster cyber resilience, Michael explains that modern data centres would benefit from adopting a multifaceted security strategy that embraces“ both technological innovation and human vigilance.”
He says:“ A layered security approach is essential. This includes using firewalls, advanced access controls and intrusion detection tools across every segment of the network. That way, if one barrier fails, additional safeguards remain in place to protect critical assets.”
