Dubai-based Comguard, an IT security products distributor, recently conducted a workshop in Riyadh, on HP Enterprise Security solutions.

The workshop, held at Mariott Hotel, in association with HP, aimed to educate, train and even certify channel partners and was attended by over 40 leading channel partners from all across Saudi Arabia.

HP Enterprise Security Products is a completely security-focused business unit that is bringing together the offerings of HP ArcSight, HP Fortify and HP TippingPoint with security research capabilities into a unified platform - the Security Intelligence & Risk Management Platform, a statement said.

Experts from both Comguard and HP gave overview including latest developments, updates and offerings and offered technical training on HP Enterprise Security products and solutions specially tailored for partners in the kingdom.

During the workshop, HP updated channel partners about its new version of Business Service Management (BSM) software, HP Operational Analytics. The new BSM software uses big data analytics to improve the performance and availability of business software across mobile and hybrid IT environments.

Jayadevan K, senior vice president, Value Business, Comguard, said: “The workshop helped partners discover how they can recognise opportunities to drive more revenue for their business. We also updated partners how they can avail resources and trainings which are available to them as part of the HP PartnerOne Program. ”

Comguard and HP also jointly plan to conduct a similar workshop on Enterprise Security solutions next month in Doha. - TradeArabia News Service
