Trend Micro has recently announced its partnership with Wipro
Technologies to jointly develop virtualization security solutions
that will help secure both private and public cloud environments.
The two companies will provide joint virtualized data center
security, as well as datacenter consolidation solutions using
next-generation security products from Trend Micro and other mutual
partners.
The initiative will align with current services from Wipro such
as data security, managed security monitoring, managed network and
host infrastructure security operations, and managed unified threat
and vulnerability managed services. As a Trend Micro global
reseller, Wipro will offer products that encompass threat
management, Web, messaging, server and endpoint security.
"By working closely with Trend Micro, we will be better able to
address the operational security requirements of our datacenter
customers, and meet their business demands for efficiency and cost
savings," informed Prasenjit Saha, Vice President and Global head,
Enterprise Security Solutions, Wipro. He further added,
“Wipro's expertise in providing end-to-end security services
combined with Trend Micro's host and virtualization security
solutions for datacenter security requirements will help customers
to better protect their critical data, as well as ensure compliance
with PCI and other regulations."
As part of this strategic agreement, Wipro and Trend Micro are
also jointly building Centers of Excellence to address the data
protection, security and compliance needs of today's virtualized
datacenters, as well as the growing market demand for server
consolidation.
