New Partnership
Typetec, an Irish IT service provider, has announced a partnership with cybersecurity company Darktrace.
The collaboration will see the Irish company bring Darktrace’s AI-powered security services to its clients, which Typetec said will “provide Irish businesses with enhanced security and automated threat investigations, enabling teams to prioritise and focus on core business tasks”. In addition to marketing Darktrace’s services in Ireland, Typetec will provide clients with consultancy services, manage implementation and handle customer support.
Speaking about the partnership, Chief Revenue Officer Ken Tormey said; “Orchestrated attacks and actors don’t play by normal business rules and normal business hours. Meeting an attack to disrupt its lifecycle at the moment of need now requires an approach using a proactive security posture that is enabled to execute intelligent, contextual assessments. Darktrace’s AI centric model of continuous real-time learning, detection & reaction has changed the power balance. It is exactly this protection and reassurance our customers need and why we choose Darktrace”
