Acquisition of OneSecure to see comprehensive suite of services and solutions available for existing customers
OneSecure Asia has announced that it has been acquired by EVVO Labs, a provider of innovative cloud, mobile and media solutions, and will be renamed EVVO Cybersecurity.
With the acquisition, EVVO Labs’ infrastructure, cloud backup and data protection, disaster recovery, digital media, mobility management, business intelligence, IoT and system integration, will complement OneSecure’s full suite of security solutions. Customers of both companies will be able to experience a wider range of security solutions as well as services offered by EVVO Cybersecurity.
The expanded and complementary offerings come in light of an increasingly complex cybersecurity climate and the potential of cybersecurity threats jeopardising businesses. Adding to the challenge is the fact that 73 percent of organizations now include cybersecurity risk in their internal audits, a 20 percent increase year-over-year, while the recent Budget 2016 announcement by the Singapore Government highlighted the shortage of cybersecurity talent.
“We understand how our customers’ security needs are getting increasingly complex, and in response we have evolved by acquiring OneSecure. Through this acquisition, we will offer a more comprehensive range of solutions to help customers enhance their cybersecurity strategy. At the same time, we will integrate EVVO Cybersecurity’s solutions with EVVO Labs’ existing offerings,” said Ryan Wong, founder and CEO of EVVO Labs. “The acquisition also aligns with EVVO Cybersecurity’s goal to become the leading cybersecurity vendor in Singapore, and the only local distributor offering the width of six crucial security solutions across cloud backup and data protection, disaster recovery, cloud server and storage, thin-client, marketplace and augmented reality 3D.”
EVVO Cybersecurity will continue meeting the needs of customers in telcos, government, financial institutions and SMEs in Asia, and also continue to develop innovative solutions to better serve customers. The company will work with customers to formulate a cybersecurity framework which will be implemented by their team of professionals using a wide range of products and tools. EVVO Cybersecurity also hopes to actively seek to attract top notch talent to join the booming cybersecurity industry to best service its existing customers in Singapore, Thailand, India, Myanmar and Indonesia.
“With extensive experience working with large companies, EVVO Cybersecurity understands the issues faced by local companies, from budget constraints, to having to prioritise cybersecurity concerns and the need for in-house talent. We are excited about the acquisition as it gives us the opportunity to develop affordable and encompassing cybersecurity solutions that meet the specific needs of organisations of all sizes,” said Edmund How, managing director of EVVO Cybersecurity.
