SCC Awarded Fortinet’s UK Platinum Partner of the Year

In a world where there is a well-recognised shortage of cyber security skills, it is imperative for SCC to deliver valued expertise in such a critical area. With that in mind, we are delighted to announce SCC has been crowned Fortinet’s Platinum Partner of the Year.

The achievement was made possible due to the fantastic year in numbers in 2017 compared to 2016, including a 40% year-on-year revenue increase; and Fabric tech / enhanced tech revenue increasing by more than 200%. These statistics represent SCC’s skills in consolidating and integrating complex security environments onto a Fortinet platform.

There has been multitude of success with SCC teaming up with Fortinet to support each other in customer engagements. In addition to this, SCC’s adoption of Fabric Messaging resulted in multiple commercial and public sector project engagements.

“We have received fantastic support from Fortinet and this has underpinned our ability to provide security solutions to meet the complex outcomes required in business today.  Fortinet have a great pedigree in the security space and provide leading solutions in a commercially attractive way”. Matt Walker, Sales Manager – Networking and Security at SCC.

As well as the above achievements, SCC succeeded in a public sector project, which resulted in the delivery of new datacenters being built on a Fortinet Fabric Security Methodology. SCC’s adoption of Fabric Messaging resulted in multiple commercial and public sector project engagements.

“This award is a result of the partnership investment SCC have made in Fortinet and it is great to see the subsequent results for both organisations. I am delighted that our partnership continues to strengthen and look forward building upon this success over the coming years” David Park UKI Channel Director at Fortinet.

Over recent years, SCC and Fortinet have formed a strong cyber security partnership, which is underpinned by SCC’s technical competence, security managed services and a deep understanding of clients’ needs across a number of complex IT requirements, such as hybrid computing and software-defined data centres.

With this approach and investment in expert resource, SCC is delighted to receive this award, which reflects our capability across Fortinet technologies and security solutions as a whole.
