SecuriThings and Convergint strengthen partnership for physical security

SecuriThings has strengthened its partnership with Convergint — a global systems integrator — with the launch of a new remote managed services offering for customers to ensure physical security devices perform consistently, reliably and securely over their entire lifecycle.

In support of this new partnership, Convergint has established nine Service Centers across the globe to ensure coverage 365/24/7 with real-time data and remote automation capabilities using the SecuriThings Managed Service Platform – enabling the company to perform critical maintenance tasks like firmware upgrades, password rotations, vulnerability detection and more.

Through this unique partnership, the companies say that operational issues will be detected, diagnosed and resolved quickly and efficiently. Protecting physical security devices from cyber threats and empowering organisations with full visibility and compliance with IT policies and standards is executed by automating these essential tasks through this new Managed Service offering.

“Many organisations, especially in the current climate, simply don’t have the internal resources to commit to adequately manage the physical security assets that they’ve invested so much in,” said Roy Dagan, Co-Founder and CEO of SecuriThings.

“That’s why we’re so excited to be strengthening our partnership with Convergint, with an unprecedented managed service offering that enables Convergint customers to outsource this element of their physical security operations.”

“Physical security devices have become increasingly IoT enabled and integrated into the Enterprise IT network. However, IT best practices, management and monitoring the health and wellness of these devices is often overlooked,” according to Joe Young, Vice President, Partner Development for Convergint.

“We are excited to partner with SecuriThings and incorporate their solution as a key component that enables Convergint to deliver Managed Services to our clients.”
