Dimension Data is a recipient of the FireEye 2013 Global Systems Integrator of the Year Award.
The award was presented to Dimension Data at FireEye Momentum 2014, the company’s annual partner and sales conference held in Las Vegas. The FireEye awards recognise partners who are at the forefront of helping customers adapt to the modern threat landscape and help organisations create more secure infrastructure to combat today’s advanced threats.
At the heart of the Nasdaq-listed FireEye, security platform is the Multi-Vector Virtual Execution (MVX) engine and Dynamic Threat Intelligence. Together they provide realtime threat protection to organisations with FireEye Web, e-mail, data centre, and mobile security solutions. More than 1 500 customers across more than 40 countries rely on FireEye for realtime, dynamic threat protection.
Sean Duffy, Dimension Data’s Middle East & Africa (MEA) security executive says, “We are very pleased to be recognised with this award. The global cyber threat landscape is expanding exponentially in both size and sophistication, and organisations are struggling to comprehensively protect their assets from advanced threats.
“As a leading global security system’s integrator, this award is testimony to the trust that our clients place in our ability to help them integrate and implement solutions that enable business growth and innovation, without compromising their security. We look forward to continuing this momentum between the two organisations in the MEA region.”
“The industry is in the midst of a massive shift in how we approach IT security and threat prevention,” says Steve Pataky, vice president of worldwide channels and alliances at FireEye.
“Dimension Data has been aggressively helping clients around the world move quickly to address this new reality. With their broad, global security expertise, consulting services portfolio and managed services capabilities, the Group has been a great partner and we’re proud to name them our Global Systems Integrator of the Year for 2013.”
“We’re excited to have Dimension Data as our partner in the sub-Saharan market and congratulate the company on the award and recognition as the Global Systems Integrator for 2013,” says Deon La Grange, regional country manager South & West Africa at FireEye.
