Swisscom chooses Hornetsecurity for email security
Hanover (10.12.18) – As a leading provider of ICT services in Switzerland, Swisscom is one of the driving forces in the digitalization of the Swiss economy. Furthermore, the company is one of the most important and largest providers in the security and cloud market throughout the country. For its Security Service Provider business, Swisscom is now implementing Premium Cloud Security Services from Hornetsecurity starting in first quarter of 2019.
In the context of internationalization and globalization of more and more companies, they are faced with the decision to make company data available in the cloud from any location. Convincing advantages of cloud computing, such as flexibility, scalability, resource and cost savings, allow companies to operate faster and more efficiently in the market. With its comprehensive Managed Security Services, the Security Operations Center in Switzerland (staffed by specialists 24/7) and professional threat detection & response services, Swisscom protects customer systems in real time.
Due to the worldwide network, new threats are emerging, which is why security solutions from the cloud and companies with high expertise in the area of cybercrime are particularly in demand. With many years of experience, Hornetsecurity has already established itself as a pioneer in several parts of the European cloud security market. The partnership with Swisscom is in line with the international growth-oriented strategy of the cloud security company from Hanover. “We were looking for a provider that could replace the various and highly customized solutions we have seen so far and that could reliably meet our customers’ high expectations in terms of scalability, security and convenience. Hornetsecurity convinced with the wide range of features of its Email Security Services, the convenient multi-client interface and high flexibility”, says Tim Rückforth, Product Manager Web & Mail Security at Swisscom.
Hornetsecurity’s services offer the same high-quality protection against sophisticated attacks for all company locations. When it comes to data protection, Swisscom customers will remain on the safe side:
“During the next eight weeks, Hornetsecurity will implement its infrastructure in Swisscom’s redundant data centers in Switzerland. The data of the Swiss customers are thus handled exclusively in the local data center. The protection and preservation of our customers’ sensitive and important data is our top priority,” says Daniel Hofmann, CEO of Hornetsecurity.
“With Email Security based on Hornetsecurity, we will offer the best protection against spam, malware and other threats to our customers, which fits perfectly into our Managed Security Services portfolio and we will actively promote through our channels. I am sure that this is the beginning of a successful partnership,” Rückforth added.
