Seceon is represented in South Africa through Corr-Serve, local value-added distributors of specialist cybersecurity, threat management and AIOps solutions. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in Syrex’s commitment to providing robust, innovative, and cost-effective cybersecurity solutions.

Ralph Berndt, Sales and Marketing Director at Syrex, said, “In this digital era, the need for effective cybersecurity has never been greater. Many companies find the successful deployment and execution of Security Incident Event Management (SIEM) projects a challenge due to high costs, technical complexities, and the need for specialised expertise.”

“Our partnership with Seceon is set to address these issues head-on, bringing our customers the Seceon Open Threat Management Platform. This automated platform integrates crucial aspects of SIEM and Security Orchestration Automation and Response (SOAR), in addition to intrusion detection and network traffic monitoring.”

The Seceon platform provides unmatched visibility across attack surfaces, including networks and endpoints, and uses AI/ML to drive proactive cyber threat detection, containment and elimination, consistent compliance and reporting, and effective security operations management. This comprehensive solution eliminates the need for multiple integrations and specialised personnel, saving organisations time and resources.

Berndt concluded, "We are committed to enhancing the cybersecurity footprint of our clients, and this partnership is a testament to that. We look forward to demonstrating the remarkable potential of the Seceon platform in improving our clients' operational environments.”
