IN THE SPOTLIGHT: TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION


DBFB AQUISITION TO SUPPORT CONTRACT


Bharat Panchal


HELPING FIRMS WORK REMOTELY


A firm of IT specialists is using the latest technology to help organisations manage working from home safely. Braunston-based C4 Secure


says with more firms turning to remote working options, it is critical organisations have the right level of threat visibility and response in place so they can support workers and stay ahead of threats. C4 Secure helps businesses


to do this by offering the RSA SecurID® Suite which uses identity insights, threat intelligence and business context to provide secure access to all users, across all their applications. Managing director Bharat


Panchal said: “We’re still traditional IT resellers, offering services and support in all IT matters however, what we actually do is deliver peace of mind to end users and to management. “With our help firms don’t


need to worry about contravening strict rules on data access and GDPR regulations or about loss of data due to malicious attacks or plain forgetfulness. “As organisations turn on


more on-premise, cloud and mobile applications, so their risk of being attacked increases along with the probability that a single compromised identity can lead to a catastrophic data breach. “Now more than ever,


organisations need a high level of assurance that users are who they say they are. To be effective, and to ensure their businesses stay agile, they also need a secure access solution that won’t slow users down, but instead provide them with a common and convenient experience to any application, from any device. RSA SecurID® is that solution.”
