GEC NEWS WIREA new alliance between BT and Intel Security to help organizations strengthen security and safeguard from cyberattacks
BT and Intel Security entered into a strategic agreement to create new solutions to help organisations improve security and prevent cyberattacks. The companies will also work together in a joint cyber partnership to further develop their common vision of creating next generation security services.
These new solutions will bring together key elements of both companies’ technology platforms and address current shortcomings of traditional point security products by avoiding the operational silos that widen the gap between detection and response. BT and Intel Security are focused on integrated, open security systems with cloud-first technology designed to empower organizations to resolve threats faster and with fewer resources.
Mark Hughes, CEO of BT Security, said: “We are collaborating with Intel to bring together BT’s security intelligence with Intel’s advanced security tools in real time. Intel’s cutting edge security technology and our knowhow in service design and delivery can help make our customers safer.”
Raj Samani, EMEA Chief Technology Officer, Intel Security, said: “Our goal is to enable businesses around the globe to more aggressively and effectively defend against data security incidents and targeted attacks. Together with BT, we plan to close the gaps between detection and remediation by creating and managing a security ecosystem designed to enable real-time communication, intelligence exchange and response across security tools.”
