BYRES安全加纳奖

Based on its recent analysis of the industrial network security solutions market, Frost & Sullivan recently recognized Byres Security Inc. (www.tofinosecurity.com), Lantzville, British Columbia, Canada, with the 2010 World Customer Value Enhancement Award in Industrial Network Security Solutions.

Unlike many awards offered in a variety of industries, consideration for this award was not self-nomination by clients. It resulted from a detailed investigation of the industrial landscape.

根据Frost & Sullivan释放”dustrial network security market has been growing significantly to combat rising malware attacks and industrial network intrusions in the industrial environment. End-users are well aware that such security accidents can shut down the plant operations in a few seconds, create environmental and safety risks, and significantly damage the company’s reputation, which induces them to protect their network infrastructure. The need for adopting such security solutions is also driven by stringent government regulations and industry standards being imposed upon the diverse end-user verticals to mitigate the risks associated with security incidents, as well as improve overall system reliability and prevention of network-related accidents.”
