Swisscom relies on mail security "Made in Germany
In the security and cloud market, Swisscom is one of the most important and largest providers in Switzerland. From the first quarter of 2019, the telecoms service provider will be relying on premium cloud security services from Hanover-based Hornetsecurity for its security service provider business.
Against the background of the internationalization and globalization of more and more companies, businesses are faced with the decision to make company data available in the cloud, regardless of location. The advantages of cloud computing, such as flexibility, scalability, resource and cost savings, are convincing arguments for being able to act faster and more efficiently on the market. With its comprehensive Managed Security Services, the Security Operations Center in Switzerland (staffed 7×24 by specialists) and professional Threat Detection & Response Services, Swisscom protects customer systems in real time.
Mail security from Hanover for the Swiss industry leader
Strong global networking is creating new threats, which is why security solutions from the cloud and companies with a high level of expertise in the field of cybercrime are particularly in demand. Swisscom has now found the ideal partner in Hornetsecurity - the headquarters of this company, which operated under the name antispameurope until 2015, is located in Hanover, according to the statement. "We were looking for a provider that could replace the previous different and highly customized solutions and reliably meet the high demands of our customers in terms of scalability, security and convenience. Hornetsecurity convinced us with the wide range of functions of its mail security services, the convenient multi-client interface and high flexibility," says Tim Rückforth, Product Manager Web & Mail Security at Swisscom.
"Beginning of a successful partnership"
Hornetsecurity's services offer the same high-quality protection against sophisticated attacks for all company locations in Switzerland and abroad. When it comes to data protection, Swisscom customers will continue to be on the safe side in the future: "Over the next eight weeks, Hornetsecurity will install its infrastructure in the redundant data centers in Switzerland at Swisscom. The data of Swiss customers will thus be processed exclusively on site. Protecting and securing our customers' sensitive and important data is a top priority for us," says Daniel Hofmann, Managing Director at Hornetsecurity. "With Mail Security based on Hornetsecurity, we will offer our customers the best protection against spam, malware and other threats in the future, which fits perfectly into our portfolio of Managed Security Services and which we will actively market through our channels. I am sure that this is the beginning of a successful partnership," said Rückforth.
