IT channels and service providers must be able to constantly rethink strategies as threats to their customers evolve, whether in forming new partnerships, using marketing to enable new security business or keeping updated with technologies.
Security, of course, is an integral component to any business, and many of the topics at Channel-Sec will address solutions for key vertical market compliance models, or joining an eco-system with like-minded partners.
This event will offer a forum for developing better understanding, from the changing nature of the threat and identifying new opportunities, to building a sound business model. Also covered will be specialist legal advice, training and education, understanding risk, exploring new technology areas such as IoT and AI, edge and end-point security, and the wider issues of negotiating security sales and implications for customers.
