Expansion into Middle East

19 Jul 2010 - New Strategic Partnership with Security Matterz

Riyadh - Software vendor, NETconsent announces a strategic partnership with Security Matterz, a leading IT Security Specialist in the Gulf Council Countries (GCC).

NETconsent, is set to capitalise on overseas opportunities in the second half of 2010. World-wide interest in systems that enable more effective management of policies and procedures is on the rise as organisations seek to manage their costs in the face of tightening regulation.

Most significantly, businesses in the Gulf Council Countries are seeking to mature their IT practices and demonstrate sound governance. Security Matterz is well respected in the region for implementing robust technical solutions and CEO, Tony Lteif, recognises the potential of NETconsent within their compliance framework.

“Many organisations within GCC countries are now required to adhere to PCI standards,” says Tony Lteif, CEO at Security Matterz. “They are also choosing to adopt best practice guidelines, such as ISO 27001, SOX and Basel II. NETconsent is the ideal medium to communicate such policies and associated documentation both effectively and cost-efficiently.”

Dominic Saunders, NETconsent’s Operations Director, will be back in Saudi Arabia next month to close deals initiated during his recent business trip.

“I am extremely pleased with the outcome of meetings undertaken in partnership with Security Matterz” says Mr Saunders. “Staff there clearly understand the link between policy compliance and sound governance. I believe this new business relationship will prove very profitable.”
