Smarttech247 (AIM: S247), a multi-award-winning provider of AI-enhanced cybersecurity services providing automated managed detection and response for a portfolio of international clients, is pleased to announce it has partnered with Cisco to deliver a complete security solution for threat prevention, detection, investigation and response.

Cisco Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCO) (“Cisco”) delivers software-defined networking, cloud and security solutions to companies worldwide and recently completed its acquisition of cybersecurity firm Splunk Inc., which had already entered into its own strategic partnership agreement with Smarttech247 in October 2023. This new partnership will see Smarttech247 integrate Cisco’s security technologies into its AI-enhanced cybersecurity services, offering clients an even more comprehensive and robust defence against evolving cyber threats.

Cisco’s range of security technologies for network, device, user and cloud security will integrate with Smarttech247’s existing suite of cybersecurity solutions. These technologies, combined with Splunk’s cybersecurity capabilities gained in the recent acquisition, will enhance Smarttech247’s VisionX platform, allowing organisations to proactively secure their digital assets and mitigate risks effectively.

Raluca Saceanu, Chief Executive Officer of Smarttech247, commented:

“We are delighted to partner with Cisco which, following its acquisition of Splunk, has become one of the largest software companies globally. This collaboration underscores our commitment to delivering top-tier cybersecurity services and reinforces our position as a trusted cybersecurity partner for organisations worldwide. Together with Cisco, we are well-equipped to provide our clients with the security they need to navigate the digital world with confidence.”
