Digital Track: Serving the needs of the Security and Storage Community

By

Owing to the multi-tenant nature of the cloud, deploying confidential information, data and critical IT resources in the cloud raises concerns about vulnerability to attacks. Unauthorized exposure of malicious manipulation leaves data at the risk of infringement. Today, traditional security mechanism tailored to secure small-scale data no longer finds a place in this massive data driven environment. Many vendors are unable to unlock the business benefits as they fail to address the data security challenges posed by cloud computing. Committed to a policy of “Total Customer Satisfaction”, Digital Track, headquartered in Chennai, provides Security Consulting’, ‘Security Management, and ‘Information Security Assurance and Control Practice’ to manage and monitor security processes and protect mission critical information in cloud. The company is focused in creating stable and reliable business environments with its offerings in the area of Security Vulnerability Management, Security Component/Application Management and Security Information Management.

Data loss is critical to the medium-sized as well as large-sized data center. High costs of deployment with storage solutions scare the CIOs today. High reliability and availability is expected, as today’s business assets remain digitized throughout the entire lifecycle. The predicaments associated with data, have called for effective data management and storage solutions. Countering these storage challenges, Digital Track offers widest portfolio of high-performance, cost effective and easy to manage storage solutions sourced from the leading manufacturers the world. “We have the experience and solutions to address any storage needs. Our products and experience provide the ultimate storage experience to the businesses, regardless of any industries”, says Muneer Ahmed, CEO at Digital Track.

As the adoption of cloud-based applications increase, more IT departments embrace BYOD, employees and customers are accessing corporate applications and data from multiple devices across all global regions. The adoption has brought increased security risk of exposing sensitive personal and corporate information to the wrong hands. Vendors offering IAM solutions fail to provide a control access to sensitive company information while allowing access to work from anywhere and anytime. Digital track incorporates Two-factor authentication into its IAM service to reduce the incidence of online identity theft, phishing expeditions, and other online fraud. Articulating about its IAM services, Muneer states, “Two factor kind of authentication enables more secured connection between the user and applications”.

Data is considered to be one of organizations’ most valuable assets and every small and big organization have witnessed their internal and sensitive data getting leaked and stolen to the authorized sources. These incidents have cost organizations millions of dollar to stabilize the damage of its network operations. Addressing these pain points, Digital Track has effectively implemented DLP controls into Data Leak Prevention products, which scans and analyzes all outbound data transmissions from the networks in real time. Malicious or unintentional transmissions of confidential data over the network are identified and blocked. “Organizations are fully secured and compliant with government data security regulations as it relates to Sarbanes Oxley, GLBA, HIPAA, CA SB1386, CA AB1950, Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard, The Patriot Act, and others”, adds Muneer. In addition to preventing data leakage, the company analyzes the unique security needs of the customers and based on the results, it gives a go-ahead for the implementation. The company makes sure that the security solution is seamlessly integrated with the customers’ existing applications/ products. Furthermore, the seasoned and certified team of Digital track is always committed to serve the needs of the security and storage community.

The major alliances of Digital Track are with Symantec, McAfee, Fortinet, Dell, Sonicwall, Juniper, Cyberoam, Watchguard, McAfee, Trend Micro, IBM ISS, Iron Port, Barracuda, Bluecoat, Websense, RSA, Array Shield, EMC, NetApp, Quantum, IBM, HP, Dell, Brocade, Cisco, Radware, Riverbed, F5, Citrix, VMWare. Over the time, the company has helped many small and big organizations with their data and security challenges. The company has been successful in establishing a strong foothold in the market of South India with its scalable and cost-effective services/solutions. It has launched a global Center of Excellence in Chennai to present demo of its appliances, built in hardware platform to the customers. “This makes the buying process easy for the customers as they get to watch the demo sessions of our relevant products designed to address their unique need”, quotes Muneer. After proving its mettle by providing services to some of the major giants, the company is geared up to expand in other regions.
