  • (1888PressRelease) April 21, 2015 - Following a successful showing at last year's Gulf Information Security Expo & Conference (GISEC), Westcon Middle East, the leading value-added distributor (VAD) of Convergence, Infrastructure, Mobility, Security & Cisco centric solutions in the Middle East, announced their participation in this year's edition of GISEC where they plan to launch a new initiative 'Westcon Academy' for end-user technical training as well as showcase their entire portfolio of enterprise cyber-security solutions.

    "Westcon Security has the most comprehensive range of cyber-security solutions of any value added distributor in the region. In each security risk space, we work with leading vendors such as Algosec, Arbor Networks, Aruba Networks, Blue Coat, DELL, F5, Forescout, HP, Juniper and Palo Alto Networks. In order to build secure wired and mobile infrastructures, partners and end users must engage multiple technologies and Westcon Security is uniquely positioned to assist our partners in this challenge. In addition to having a robust product portfolio, we also have a highly qualified team of security consultants that work with clients during pre-sales, design and proof of concept stages. In addition we also provide best-in-class professional services, training and '24x7x365' customer service support. GISEC is the ideal platform for us to showcase these capabilities" said Mr. Christopher Green, Divisional Director at WestconGroup.

    In addition to highlighting their product portfolio and resource capabilities, Westcon will be launching Westcon Academy. With over 15 years of expertise, certified instructors with strong field experience, a dedicated lab for technical training and local language capabilities, Westcon Academy offers enterprises an unparalleled range of technical programs, both certified and non-certified.

    "Between showcasing our technical resources and solutions and launching Westcon Academy, the Westcon representation at this year's GISEC will be even stronger than 2014. I am extremely excited about the opportunity to participate in GISEC 2015 and share our knowledge and expertise with regional enterprises." concluded Mr. Green.
