Derive Technologies' Information Security practice provides a comprehensive portfolio of solutions to protect the critical business information, systems and services that power your enterprise.

Business data and the technologies that manage, store and move that information are all-important assets to any corporation or public sector organization. Threats to your data and business systems can cost thousands, even millions, of dollars.

Few IT departments have the time and resources to maintain security while staying focused on building their core business. The cost of selecting and integrating the right combination of hardware and software to fulfill business objectives, to meet specialized industry requirements and to manage these solutions in-house can strain any IT budget. In addition, with the increased need for Security surrounding the systems that are consolidated during business mergers and acquisitions, the explosion of mobile office connectivity and the necessity to provide access to your data and to transact business over the web, Security is not only costly but is becoming overwhelming for your team to manage without the right partner.

Derive's Information Security practice becomes that trusted partner. We enable businesses to make knowledgeable decisions regarding the protection of their valuable resources and to mitigate risks from attack. We take a true, managed service approach to delivering Security services, with the idea that Security does not exist in a vacuum but in a holistic environment that starts not just with technologies but with people and processes. We extend that to the design and implementation of data, system and Internet Security policies that are aligned with the unique characteristics of your business, with those who access your critical information and with the methods they use to access your data. As we design these trusted procedures and services, we leverage our expertise to implement cost-effective, bullet-proof solutions from the leading manufacturers of Security technologies, which dramatically reduces the devastating risk of revenue loss from system and information vulnerability.
