Providing 360° Security To Enterprises

How has GISEC been so far for Comguard?

I think it has been good. We have been able to showcase some of the new relationships
we had in Q1. It allows us to broaden our horizon on what we are able to offer. We also see a clear shift in terms of how the threats have increased and how complicated the threats have become and how the newer solutions are trying to tackle them.

So Comguard seems to be onboarding several new vendors, isn’t it?

More importantly, if you see they are addressing the new age threats, so that’s been the motto. Because the earlier set of tools or companies can’t address those in the fashion they are meant to be.

Has there been any change in the focus of Comguard?

No, the focus continues to be security. But there are couple of areas we are trying to get into- these include the emerging technologies like the cloud, virtualization, storage, compute, IoT. We are trying to develop in these domains and by the next GITEX, we shall be able to make announcements of actual brands and what we shall be doing in these areas.

Security is very much linked with mobility as well; so are you planning to venture into mobility space too?
Yeah. We see lot of shift in security happening to address the security concerns on cloud, for new age applications, SaaS etc. On boarding new vendors is backed by our efforts to address all the changing needs of security across several domains.

Are you targeting SMBs as well?

We have always been doing so through couple of brands like Kaspersky and we continue to do that. We are basically consolidating that space; however our heavy focus is on the enterprise clients.
