Hot demand for IT security solutions alongside new vendor partnerships have been credited for boosting Dublin headquartered distributor DataSolutions' 2020 security revenues by €7.5m compared to 2019 figures.
"2020 saw increasing demand for cybersecurity solutions stemming from the Covid-19 pandemic and the rising number of more vulnerable people working from home – with new products, applications, web and cloud platforms catering for a significant increase in cyber threats," stated MD Michael O’Hara.
"With the increase in sophisticated cyber attacks targeted at dispersed workforce, security teams are under serious pressure to protect vulnerable organisations and critical data. That’s not to mention the fact that they are potentially dealing with unprotected networks, personal devices and unofficial app downloads.
"Hence we will continue to expand our offering and deliver technologies and services which, now more than ever, are the difference between organisations surviving and thriving.”
