Dell has announced the availability of Dell Data Protection portfolio of Data Security Solutions in India, providing regional businesses with the tools they need to enable their evolving workforce, while securing sensitive data wherever it travels. Organizations can now integrate Dell’s leading advanced threat prevention, encryption, and authentication solutions into their IT infrastructure, while also having access to in-market support from a team of local security experts.
“Talking to businesses throughout the country, it is clear many IT departments are grappling with ways to empower employee mobility and productivity, while ensuring their data is secure,” said Indrajit Belgundi, Director and General Manager, End User Computing, Dell India. “We’re excited to now offer Indian businesses a comprehensive and manageable data security portfolio with Dell Data Protection to secure the increasing amounts data being shared and stored across multiple platforms.”
Although businesses want to embrace the mobile workforce, many IT departments feel restricted by the solutions currently available to them. According to the Dell annual Global Technology Adoption Survey (GTAI), security was the major factor stopping Indian businesses from deploying mobile workplace strategies in the past year, with 44 percent of respondents saying it inhibits their desire for a mobile workforce. In addition, only 13 percent of businesses in India are currently using security tools to enable new business functions.
The Dell Data Protection suite allows business data to flow seamlessly throughout organizations, while making it easier for IT departments to manage and secure that data. The portfolio is available with Dell Commercial Client PCs, including Dell Latitude, OptiPlex, Dell Precision and select XPS PCs for a comprehensive hardware and data security solution for businesses. In fact, Dell is the only tier one vendor offering customers a single source for purchase and support of hardware and our own fully integrated endpoint security solution with advanced threat prevention. However, many businesses today have a mix of devices in their IT ecosystem, including iOS or Android-based mobile devices. Dell Data Protection can be integrated across nearly all devices, including PCs from other manufacturers, to ensure that the entirety of an organization’s infrastructure is protected effectively.
Data Protection | Endpoint Security Suite Enterprise will be available in India in early February 2016. All other solutions in the Dell Data Protection portfolio are currently available.
