Data^#3 Launches Security Practice

Data^#3, Australia’s leading business technology provider, has invested further in its Security Solutions by launching a dedicated Security Practice.

The Data^#3 Security Practice will encompass existing skills sets, coupled with support from the consulting, assurance and risk expertise of Business Aspect, who joined the Data^#3 Group in September 2014.

According to Laurence Baynham, Chief Executive Officer for Data^#3, customer demand and the increasing adoption of Cloud and mobility services has brought on this new investment.

“Customers are dealing with increasingly complex Hybrid IT environments and are trying to integrate Cloud, mobile, social and analytics. This has a tremendous impact on security as they deal with safeguarding their business critical information and intellectual property. In fact, security was the number one priority for our customers in our latest customer survey.”

“Security isn’t new for Data^#3, it has always been a foundation of each solution as demonstrated through the recognition received from partner awards with multinational security vendors for a number of years,” continued Baynham.

Most recently, Data^#3 was presented with a Cisco ANZ Security Partner Award 2015 for Outstanding Performance and was named Symantec ANZ Partner of the Year for the second year in a row.

Richard Dornhart has been appointed Security Practice Manager effective immediately. A security veteran of 16 years, Richard has experience working for global security leaders in both Australia and the USA. He will draw on his extensive knowledge to help customers navigate a constantly evolving and complex threat landscape to protect their information, assets and brand.

“The practice will provide customers with integrated offerings underpinned by the Data^#3 Secure Framework, which will be delivered and managed by experienced professionals from our services teams, complemented by Business Aspect,” concluded Baynham.
