Core competencies

As a Cyber Security System Integrator, our core competencies are design, implementation, services and support. However, being a pioneer in the industry our Core Competency is ‘Continuity’. We have seen the evolution of Cyber Security from a mere AV/Firewall to the sophisticated solutions available on Cloud today. We have a clear picture on how Cyber Security evolved over the last 3 decades. Our thorough understanding of the customer environment, their challenges and aligning their infrastructure to their business is the Core strength our customers appreciate. While others “ALSO” do security, we “ONLY” do Security !

Challenges in getting new and innovative enterprise applications

In a highly competitive environment, many products are launched in the markets that are not completely ready, tried or tested. This race allows vendors to deliver applications to the market in its beta stage. This leaves several security gaps. Customers don’t appreciate the fact that the product vendors are testing their products in customers’ live environment and fixing the bugs in the name of R&D.

Second biggest challenge is the compatibility and interoperability. Having multiple management consoles, monitoring silos of information spread across the organisation makes it difficult not only to get a holistic view but also ensure right security controls in place.

Digital technologies are rewriting the business landscape

Going digital helps the customers to increase their businesses, wider reach, and offer competitive products to their customers. Digital adds the insights and intelligence layers to their business. However, missing the keyword here ‘Security’ (Secure Digital Journey) can bring-down crashing this enormous digital initiative. It’s important to add Security perspective at every stage to ensure the system is robust, customers’ and organizations’ data is not compromised at any stage. Similar to the “Zero Trust” environment we are talking of nowadays. This “Zero Trust” has to be incorporated in the entire digital journey of customers.

Success mantra on delivering on a digital future

We believe in building Secure Digitalisation brick-by-brick. Users, Data, Network, Applications and Cloud are the components. What can be moved to Cloud Securely, what needs to be yet in Hybrid model, User awareness and education on this multi-channel access to business applications and most importantly, IT infrastructure alignment to business needs. Success depends on answering the first question (Why digital for your organization?) and, the second question (What all to be in Digital?) and the final question (How are you going to achieve this goal ‘securely’?). Get the answers right, then get going, Go Digital! Choosing the right partner is very important in this digital journey and this is where SNS is value adding to customers as well as OEMs with their 20+ years of security focus.
