As part of efforts to provide cybersecurity solutions, an IT Infrastructure provider in Nigeria, Infodata services has partnered with a global human-centric cybersecurity company, Forcepoint for better deployment of services.
Forcepoint, which designs IT solutions for industries, ranging from financial services to telecommunications, consolidates solutions with a focus on human-centric security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking at a round table in Lagos, the Founder of Infodata, Chuks Udensi said Nigeria was a huge market with a lot of information that fraudsters lurk around to hack, hence the partnership with Forcepoint solutions, according to him was coming in handy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe can identify proactively and mitigate some of these incidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The financial services are most vulnerable in this case, but any organization that has anything to do with data, commercial transactions, and information is susceptible to such attacks,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Infodata\u2019s range of services and solutions cutting across multiple verticals in the financial services sector- Banking and Insurance, Oil and Gas, Telecommunications, Education, and ancillary services, Udensi said, \u201cWe plan to work with government security agencies to see how we can utilize our capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The market is currently coming to terms, especially with a new player, Forcepoint, we see a lot of customers taking on the solution. We hope to ensure proactivity in providing security to institutions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Forcepoint\u2019s Regional Manager, Sub-Sahara Africa, Christo Van Staden, Forcepoint would leverage its 20 years of experience in securing high-assurance environments to address the critical infrastructure threat where it is most vulnerable, the human point of interaction with systems and data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are a service security organization specifically geared at dealing with service security challenges in the modern-day world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We focus on people, we protect all their data flows; who has access, who can distribute and who can copy, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We protect organizations from compromising data and against infiltration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nigerian market is a phenomenal opportunity for us, we have been a major provider to leading banks in Africa. Our solution is world-leading according to analysts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
