Help AG Partners with Fortinet to Strengthen Zero-Trust Security Solution
February 2017 by Marc Jacob
Help AG has been awarded the status of an authorized reseller with Fortinet for the Middle East region. Fortinet’s Enterprise Firewall, Advanced Persistent Threat Detection and Application Security solutions, part of the Fortinet Security Fabric, will allow Help AG to address the security challenges faced by enterprise customers today and to enhance the value proposition of these solutions by bundling them with professional services and locally-delivered 24x7 support.
In recent years, Help AG has channelled its efforts into developing a comprehensive cyber security framework called the Help AG Zero-Trust Architecture. This model is based around three principles- secured access for all resources regardless of location; stringently applied ‘least access’ control; and fine-grain monitoring and logging of all network traffic. Fortinet’s Enterprise Firewall and Application Security solutions complement additional best-in-class technologies which Help AG leverages to deliver this framework.
The partnership will focus on the UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia with Help AG expecting good uptake of the vendor’s solutions by the banking and finance, government, oil & gas, aviation, retail, healthcare, hospitality, education, media, defence and telco sectors. The reseller will provide the consultative, installation and support services associated with Fortinet’s deployments. Help AG is currently a Silver partner in the Fortinet Partner Program, and Berner explains that his company is working to achieve the highest partnership level within the coming quarter.
