Collaboration aims to strengthen cyber security
initiatives as the foundation for digital transformation
Symantec Corp., the world's leading cyber security company, and
NTT Security, the specialized security company of NTT Group, have
announced their intention to enter into a strategic partnership to
bolster web security services offerings to customers across the
cloud, mobile and on-premises.
By planning to bring together Symantec’s Cloud-Delivered Web
Security Services and CASB (Cloud Access Security Broker)
technologies, key elements of the Symantec Integrated Cyber Defense
Platform, with NTT Security’s threat detection and advanced
analytics capabilities, the companies intend to enhance security
services and provide customers flexibility and efficiency in their
digital transformation journey.
Further collaboration could see both parties sharing threat
telemetry information to provide a more sophisticated security
service suite.
The new services will plan to provide a comprehensive set of
in-depth application controls designed to manage the increasing use
of social and business web applications and enhance compliance and
cybersecurity for customers by consistently enforcing acceptable
use policies.
Greg Clark, Symantec CEO, said: “Security is an integral part of
digital transformation and our planned partnership with NTT
Security, a leader in the space, will help provide protection for
customers throughout their journey. By combining our Integrated
Cyber Defense Platform with NTT Security's leading solutions, we
are aiming to ensure that businesses can respond to evolving
threats and secure their data wherever it lives.”
Jun Sawada, NTT Security CEO commented: “Our strategic
partnership with Symantec will greatly enhance the level of
advanced web security services both parties can deliver, and I
expect this partnership to expand to other areas such as endpoint
and the entire cloud-based security area. NTT Security offers
through our operating companies Dimension Data, NTT Communications
and NTT DATA, a wide portfolio of Cybersecurity Consulting, System
Integration and Support Services, depending on the maturity level
and specific requirements from our clients.”
