Why Softchoice for Security?

Why choose Softchoice to help you design your security solution?

Well, our goal is to help you select and implement the right data protection strategy for your organization. We believe in an assessment-led approach that first identifies what you need to protect, and then qualifies and quantifies your data protection risks and opportunities.

With an accurate assessment of your current security posture, you’ll leverage our team of Security Architects to take a vendor agnostic approach to designing the optimal solution. This approach typically results in cost savings of 40 to 60 percent. Softchoice partners with every major security vendor, so we have no bias as to what will work best for your IT environment.

Softchoice has Security Architects in all the other major technology categories – including client computing, datacenter, and cloud – who work together to design integrated solutions. This is different from other security providers who aim to sell specific technologies and often miss the bigger picture.

Softchoice provides a number of assessments (many of which are of no cost to you) to help protect your environment, and your users.

Secure network architectures need to constantly evolve to keep up with the latest advanced persistent threats. There are two ways to find out if your solution isn’t keeping up—wait for a breach to happen or run validation tests.

Cyber Threat Assessment can help you better understand:

• Security and Threat Prevention – which application vulnerabilities are attacking your network, which malware/botnets were detected, and which devices are “at risk”—for firewall assessment and security breach probability
• User Productivity – which peer-to-peer, social media, instant messaging, and other apps are running—for application visibility control
• Network Utilization and Performance – what are your throughput, session, and bandwidth usage requirements during peak hours—network utilization and monitoring tests for performance optimization
