Nebulas launches ‘Security Simplified’ strategy with new technology partnership

Security VAR Nebulas Solutions has strengthened its new ‘Security Simplified’ strategy by signing cloud security company Zscaler to its Technology Incubator programme.

Originally conceived to bring new and start-up technologies to market, the Technology Incubator has now evolved to focus on sourcing and marketing innovative solutions, says Nebulas.

Zscaler’s global security cloud provides protection for users, regardless location or device (including smart phones, tablets and notebooks). Zscaler’s ability to replace centralised security appliances with an easier and more cost effective solution for today highly mobile and flexible workforce will be particularly attractive to customers, says the VAR.

“Zscaler’s ability to integrate multiple advanced threat prevention solutions into a single consolidated cloud security offering is exactly what customers have been demanding,” says Says Nebulas managing director, Nick Garlick (pictured). “It fits well into our existing portfolio and our newly launched ‘Security Simplified” strategy. We’ve already won several new contracts as a result of this partnership and we’re confident it will prove a profitable alliance for both companies.”

Outlining Nebulas’ new strategy, Garlick comments: “The Zscaler partnership marks a new direction for Nebulas. Our clear messaging and rebranding reflects the changing priorities for our customers. We’re seeing more and more organisations whose security infrastructures are no longer capable of dealing with today’s dynamic, sophisticated and targeted attacks. Added to this, many organisations have built up multiple layers of defences over the years that have become too costly and complex to manage.

“As a result, they are re-thinking their approach and moving to a more consolidated simple and cost-effective security strategy. We’re finding that customers increasingly want new ways to improve their security – by simplifying it – rather than adding yet more technology.”

"By leveraging both Nebulas’ Technology Incubator programme and Zscaler’s cloud-delivered security, customers will be able to consolidate and simplify IT security while lowering costs and risks,” adds Jay Chaudhry, founder and CEO of Zscaler.
