Regional specialised security distributor StarLink has announced that its partnership with Boldon James, enterprise-grade data classification and protection solution provider, has extended into the Middle East.
“The recent spate of data breaches have caused major financial and reputational damage to enterprises and governments alike in the region; companies worldwide have begun imposing regulations on electronic communications and stored data,” said Nidal Othman, managing director, StarLink. “Being a trusted IT security advisor, StarLink strives to bring best-of-breed technologies to our channel, enabling their customers to meet compliance and data protection requirements.”
According to the MD, Boldon James offers the widest range of classification products in the market today, “with excellent customer support and we are pleased to be partnering with them as our data classification vendor, now across the Middle East, Turkey and Africa regions.”
Martin Sugden, managing director, Boldon James, said, “In emerging markets, it is vital that businesses adopt global best practices around data protection. Boldon James Classifier is a simple and cost-effective way to protect sensitive data, and works with a wide range of leading security and data management tools to protect organisations. We are delighted that StarLink has selected Boldon James, and we expect them to be pivotal in driving awareness across the region. The partnership with StarLink is strategic for Boldon James, and demonstrates our commitment to supporting our customers and channel partners in the regions they cover.”
