Voltage Teams with Synergy Software Systems
to Bring Proven Ease-of-Use in Enterprise Secure Messaging
to Middle Eastern Markets
Dubai, United Arab Emirates — GITEX -– Sept
29, 2005– Voltage Security, Inc.,
a global leader in enterprise privacy management for digital
business communication, today announced that Synergy Software
Systems, a leading technology solutions provider with a
network of value-added resellers across the Middle East,
is now providing sales and service support for Voltage
products throughout the region.
“The Middle East enterprise software market is evolving
rapidly and with our partnership with Synergy, Voltage is
well-positioned to provide our award-wining privacy management
solutions to companies throughout the region,” said
David Thornbury, vice president, international sales, Voltage
Security.
"The Middle East, and particularly Dubai, is rapidly
transitioning to an electronic-based marketplace demanding
new levels of data confidentiality and security, especially
for financial services and health care. Also, email and use
of the internet are becoming more essential business tools,
but the security risks e.g. from hacking and phishing increases
daily. Dubai has a Health City, and a buoyant financial services
and insurance sector, and the DIFX (Dubai stock exchange)
is now open. The new technology zones will have sensitive
biotech and pharmaceutical product development data
that will similarly need protection”, said Jennifer
Vaz, executive director, Synergy Software Systems.
“Voltage Security has an innovative approach to protecting
both email and file data without the need for expensive PKI
certificates, and their solution is now adopted by leading
companies and organizations. Synergy Software Systems has
been working closely with Voltage for sometime in Dubai and
we are delighted to represent them across the region. Voltage
delivers a revolutionary new way of securing communication
that overcomes the hurdles of existing solutions. By using
a commonly used identity-such as the user's email address
or network ID-as the user's public key, Voltage is the only
provider that addresses the critical requirements of ubiquitous
secure communication beyond corporate boundaries. We believe
there will be high demand for this elegant solution and we
are delighted to represent such a forward thinking company, “continued
Vaz.
