As per the latest announcement made by Fortinet(NASDAQ:FTNT), the company has partnered with SingTel to immediately roll out secured broadband services to enterprises across Singapore.
Running on Fortinet's high-performance FortiGate network security platforms and FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer centralized management and reporting appliances, the SingTel Business Fibre Broadband Security Suite intercepts security threats and eliminates them in the cloud before they reach a company's IT network. Businesses subscribed to this Suite will have online content filtering bundled with their broadband access. Antivirus and anti-spam protection can be added as options. Besides improving security, the content filtering and anti-spam functions help businesses optimize bandwidth usage and increase staff productivity.
The SingTel Business Fibre Broadband Security Suite is tailor-made for SMEs, which have little or no IT support. Having a reliable, convenient and automated cloud security enables them to protect their vulnerable IT networks from internal and external threats. Our SME customers can enjoy a secured Internet network allowing them to focus on their business, enhance customer experience and drive new revenue growth, said Goh Boon Huat, Vice-President, Business Products, Global Products, SingTel Group Enterprise.
Rajesh Maurya, Fortinet's Country Manager for India & SAARC, said, SingTel is a leading ICT service provider in the region and their championing of these services shows that the regional market for managed security services has finally matured. Fortinet is excited by the opportunities ahead and will continue to innovate and develop cutting-edge security solutions to help MSSPs and enterprises transform their businesses and gain competitive advantage.
Under the Fortinet-SingTel partnership, SingTel will offer its new eVolve/eLite business customers the Business Fibre Broadband Security Suite, while upgrading existing eVolve/eLite customers to this Suite when their contracts are renewed.
