Ultima beefs up security with The AntiSocial Engineer buy
Summary
Channel cloud and automation specialist Ultima Business Solutions has moved to bolster its security portfolio with the acquisition of The AntiSocial Engineer. The deal will provide Ultima with a business that specialises in helping customers to avoid cyber attacks through a process of training and auditing services. This time last year, Ultima Labs added more data protection functionality to its IA-Cloud management platform, with automated security compliance and a vulnerability analyser, designed to help customers to quickly check if they are up to date with regulations. Research shared on last month’s MSP Day revealed that the channel was becoming increasingly aware that security was the number one concern for users and an area they needed to be able to have a strong story around. “I think the research is suggesting that MSPs take the next step of the MSP journey and start to focus on what their customers are really crying out for right now, and that is helping support around cyber security,” he said.
