Information security and risk management company, NTT Com Security, has received the 2014 EMEA Channel Partners of the Year Award from continuous network monitoring and mitigation system provider, ForeScout Technologies.
The selection process involved assessing partner companies in terms of annual growth and commitment to the ForeScout partner programme and NTT Com Security was chosen for its exceptional performance, being the highest revenue producing partner for EMEA during the year. Its sales grew from scratch as a new partner to becoming one of the largest partners in EMEA during the year. The reason for such dramatic growth was the significant number of sales the company made into large enterprises.
Being a testament to the broad expertise and experience that NTT Com Security has in serving enterprise customers, the award from ForeScout was seen as a particular honour by NTT Com Security's SVP for Security Strategy, Garry Sidaway. He told us: “We are committed to the ForeScout Partner Programme, which allows us to maximise our regional relationship with both ForeScout and our customers. NTT Com Security’s Solutions approach ensures that we are providing our customers with the most efficient and effective tools to enable a more holistic security approach.”
Commenting on the significance of NTT Com Security's performance on ForeScout's success, ForeScout's EMEA director for Channels and Strategic Alliances, John Hagerty said, "ForeScout has enjoyed a very successful 2014, but we could not have achieved this level of success without the commitment and tenacity of our channel partners in EMEA and worldwide. Because of this, we are pleased to confer the EMEA Channel Partner of the Year award on NTT Com Security, as they were able to help us establish a stronger foothold within the large enterprise in multiple countries in Europe and we look forward to extending the cooperation with them in the coming year.”
CounterACT, ForeScout’s flagship product, exemplifies ForeScout’s leadership in continuous monitoring and mitigation. Making use of its innovative next generation NAC technology, the CounterACT platform provides real-time visibility to users, devices (including BYOD devices), systems and applications and allows IT organisations to centrally apply granular policies to understand their true security posture and to automate response to a wide variety of security issues. Powered by ControlFabric technology, the platform also enables network, security and management solutions to dynamically exchange information, which, in turn, allows enterprises to respond to issues more effectively and make better use of their existing security investments.
