It all began 30 years ago with a bold idea to meet the growing demand for internet solutions.

What began modestly under the name Internet2000 quickly turned into a success story: whilst the initial focus was on network technologies, we realised early on that the digital future would not be possible without security.

IT security is and will remain at the heart of both our portfolio and our corporate philosophy – “Working together to drive a secure digital future.”
