Commenting Simon Barnard – Head of Sales & Marketing for Deepnet Security said, “we are building our reseller channel to help meet the growing demand for our authentication solutions. The SMB and enterprise markets are evolving quickly and to help meet the challenges they face, we have solutions that are easier to deploy, mange and offer greater initial cost savings plus the total cost of ownership is far greater than traditional dedicated hardware tokens solutions can offer”.
Jason Thompson – Managing Director, at Softek (Deepnet Security official distributor) commented, “Deepnet Security have an offering that very few vendors globally can match. The dedicated hardware token will over time be replaced with new methods of authentication, such as type, mobile and virtual smart cards”.
The market for traditional authentication products and technology is forecast to grow at between 17-21% over the next 5 years, exponential growth of software tokens is forecast for the same period and Deepnet Security are well positioned to take advantage of this growth market within the security sector of the IT industry. Phishing and identity theft are still a major issue Deepnet Security products are designed with this in mind and can help combat these types of fraud.
