Singapore’s M1 has added three cybersecurity vendors to its list of managed security partners, as part of efforts to enhance its suite of cloud-based cybersecurity offerings.
The three vendors are Red Sentry, Palo Alto Networks and Proficio, who join Trend Micro, Blackberry and Radware as partners in M1’s cybersecurity solutions suite.
Red Sentry will provide cyber security consultancy services including vulnerability assessment and penetration testing while Palo Alto Networks will offer its next-generation firewall.
Proficio will provide a 24/7 network monitoring service, courtesy of its recently opened security operations centre (SOC) in Singapore. The cloud-based services are hosted out of M1’s data center in Singapore.
The offerings are available to M1’s business fiber broadband customers, with SMEs expected to benefit most from the cybersecurity suite’s pay-as-you-use model.
According to M1’s chief corporate sales and solutions officer Willis Sim, customers who sign up for services in the cybersecurity solutions suite need only deal with a single M1 client servicing representative, regardless of the number of services subscribed to.
To encourage uptake, M1 is offering promotional packages for early adopters. Registered businesses who either recontract or sign up for 24-month business fiber broadband contracts will be offered free VSA and three months subscription to Palo Alto’s virtualized next-generation firewall.
A free 12-month subscription to Proficio’s SOC service will also be offered to customers on 24-month contacts.
Customers will be able to opt out of any managed security service at any time without incurring financial penalties.
