The company recently partnered with Mimecast, the holistic e-mail management company offering SaaS-based e-mail archiving, continuity, security and policy control.

“We are really happy that we have found such a powerful product which also falls into our goal of adding genuine business value to our clients. The solution really does lower cost, complexity and management overhead,” says Mc Loughlin.

J2 Software
J2 Software is a leading South African information technology security company. While most organisations are now starting to realise the impact of data theft and abuse of IT resources by employees, J2 recognised the need to protect against this activity some time ago. J2 Software was born after the founders identified an opportunity in the IT market in South Africa and the rest of Africa. They saw a growing need for information security solutions that were comprehensive, simple to deploy, easy to use and good value for money. After tireless searching and investigation, J2 Software was officially launched in 2006.
Shortly after inception the customer list of J2 Software started to grow rapidly; and this continues to be the case to this day. J2 Software has provided services and solutions to numerous renowned, forward thinking companies with sites running in South Africa, Angola, Botswana, Kenya, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia.
J2 Software provides solutions and services to various organisations that have a requirement to secure their sensitive information as well as implement, monitor and enforce internal security policies. In recent times organisations are placing a far higher priority on the security, accountability and control of their most prized asset, their information.
Adding to this is the ever-growing pressure being placed on companies and their directors to maintain the security and control of the sensitive data of their clients, as well as the necessity to conform to various local and international compliance regulations.
With the continued rise of identity theft and confidential data leakage the need for our product offering is not only and advantage, but an absolute necessity.
