Trustwave Managed Security Services to Be Available to Canadian Businesses Through Rogers

CHICAGO, IL--(Marketwired - December 16, 2015) - Trustwave® today announced that Rogers Communications will offer Trustwave Managed Security Services to help businesses in Canada fight cybercrime, protect data and reduce security risk.

Trustwave Chief Executive Officer and President Robert J. McCullen said, "Teaming with an industry leader like Rogers Communications will bring much-needed cybersecurity and managed security services capabilities to the Canadian market. Rogers' extensive customer base, local expertise and brand presence, combined with Trustwave's experience delivering enterprise-grade managed security services is a powerful combination that will help businesses fight cybercrime and protect data. Working with Rogers Communications is a major milestone in our strategy to expand Trustwave Managed Security Services internationally."

Rogers cybersecurity solutions as a service, powered by Trustwave, will help businesses address advanced information security threats while alleviating the pressures created by resource constraints, skills shortages, compliance requirements and the rapid adoption of new technologies. The services will provide the security businesses need without requiring them to install and manage technologies themselves, to retain and train staff to run and configure those systems, or to worry about aging levels of protection. By relying on Rogers Communications as their trusted security partner, businesses can focus more on their priorities and core competencies.

Rogers Communications Enterprise Business Unit President Nitin Kawale said, "Cybersecurity is the top growing concern among Canadian businesses of all sizes, and many do not have the protection they need. We're pleased to team with Trustwave to offer our business customers cybersecurity solutions as a service that protect against threats from around the world and allow them to focus on running their business, knowing their data and information is protected." 

Trustwave operates a Security Operations Center located in the Kitchener-Waterloo Region in Canada. Security Operations Centers are "mission control" centers through which Trustwave delivers its services. The secure Canada facility houses the infrastructure and staff necessary to deliver customer service, threat monitoring and device management to Rogers Communications clients. Trustwave will operate eight Security Operations Centers worldwide -- in Canada, the United States, the Philippines, Poland, Singapore and one planned in Australia.

The managed security services industry is expected to grow rapidly in the coming years due to the increasing frequency and complexity of cyber-attacks. The industry is estimated to grow from more than US$15 billion in 2015 to more than US$27 billion in 2019, according to the latest 2015 Gartner Information Security Forecast report.(1)
