Johannesburg, 17 Jun 2015

Cyberoam, a leading global provider of network security appliances, today announced the appointment of Business Driven Network Services (BDNS) as its platinum partner in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.

This partnership gives further fillip to Cyberoam's aggressive expansion activities in South Africa. It recently opened a new office in the country and has added to its local staff. The company is betting big on the South African cyber security market, and with this partnership, it wants to further entrench its presence in the country.

The African cyber security market is poised to be worth $2.32 billion by 2020, led by demand in countries like South Africa. This platinum partnership with BDNS, one of the leading system integrators in KwaZulu-Natal, highlights Cyberoam's commitment towards providing comprehensive security solutions to protect the country's businesses from growing threats and vulnerabilities.

Commenting on this partnership with BDNS, Adrian Anema, Country Manager - South Africa, said: "BDNS is one of the foremost systems integrators in the region, and has a reputation for providing only the best and most comprehensive array of network security solutions and services to clients. We believe our top-of-the-line network security appliances, combined with BDNS's experience and expertise in delivering network security solutions and services, will play a huge role in increasing our market share in South Africa."

"We provide our clients with a complete package, including advice and consultancy, along with best-of-breed network security solutions and services tailored to their specific needs," said Gavin Blunt, Technical Director of BDNS. "We see Cyberoam as a perfect fit because of their pedigree in network security, with a mature and vast security product portfolio, unique partner programme and a long track record of delivering robust industry firsts in network security solutions."

Both Cyberoam and BDNS see this platinum partnership as a win-win for both parties. In BDNS, Cyberoam gets a partner which is perfectly positioned to help the company achieve its growth objectives. In Cyberoam, BDNS has found a company whose best-in-class security products perfectly complement its solutions portfolio.

Cyberoam has a presence in more than 125 countries and has built up an excellent reputation as a network security vendor which strengthens the IT security of businesses with its award-winning products. The comprehensive security offerings from Cyberoam have already made it a name to reckon with in the region and this partnership will see the company making further inroads in the network security market in South Africa.
