As the clock starts ticking towards this year's ITWeb Security Summit, diamond sponsor Networks Unlimited Africa, a leading value-added distributor within the sub-Saharan Africa market, is eagerly anticipating the opportunity to engage with an audience and peers made up of forerunners in today's IT space.

Anton Jacobsz, Chief Executive Officer at Networks Unlimited Africa, comments: "Gartner expects the world to see over 20 billion connected devices by the year 2020. This will fundamentally change the way we live, work and think, the frontiers of new technology have never been closer. We pride ourselves on sourcing partners that are on the cutting edge, indeed, the disruptive edge, of the IT arena within the data centre, networking, and security arenas, and actively providing best-of-breed solutions, whether global giant or bold new start-up.

"With this philosophy at the core of our operations, our product portfolio provides solutions from the edge to the data centre, addressing key areas such as cloud networking and integration and SD-WAN optimisation. Additionally, our enterprise systems management (ESM) business unit offers best-of-breed solutions to infrastructure management initiatives, application service management and remote management technologies, allowing for state-of-the-art monitoring and management of the infrastructure."

Networks Unlimited Africa will use its exhibition stand to display its full security stack, which comprises Attivo, Carbon Black, Cofense, Fortinet, RSA and Thales. Additionally, Networks Unlimited Africa will be hosting a customer theatre, showcasing demos and presentations from its participating vendor partners, while technical and sales experts, as well as affiliated international guests, will also be present to share knowledge and information.

"Our passion for innovation, people and business drives us to embrace the frontiers of new technology and plays a role in igniting pending developments that enhance our customers' businesses. Our partners are continuously updated to include the very latest thinking and best-of-breed offerings and solutions. We are keenly looking forward to this year's ITWeb Security Summit and showcasing our ongoing passion for disruption," concludes Jacobsz.

ITWeb Security Summit 2019

In an increasingly connected digital world, cyber security threats are constantly evolving and increasing in number and sophistication. Security professionals need to be up to speed with the latest technologies, techniques and skills for predicting and mitigating potentially crippling cyber attacks, the methods and tools in use by today's threat actors, and the latest legal and compliance demands. ITWeb Security Summit 2019, now in its 14th year, will again bring together leading international and local industry experts, analysts and end-users to unpack the latest threats facing African CISOs, CIOs, security specialists and risk officers, demystify emerging cyber security strategies in AI, blockchain, IOT, DevSecOps and more, and explain how to increase an organisation's cyber resiliency.
