Company lauded for its Security prowess in
enabling Digital Trust
Wipro Limited (NYSE:WIT), a leading global information
technology, consulting and business process services company, today
announced that it has been positioned in the 'Winner's Circle' by
the leading analyst firm HfS Research, for its advanced information
security capabilities in enabling digital trust for its
customers.
Wipro's leadership position was included in HfS Research's
October 2015 report titled "Blueprint Report on Trust as a
Service," authored by Fred McClimans, Managing Director, Digital
Trust, Consumer and Security Services at HfS Research. In the
report, HfS Research assessed the capabilities of thirteen IT
service providers, to cover the Digital Trust and Security market,
with a focus on broad security abilities grounded by Managed
Security Services and enhanced by overall information security,
risk, and trust offerings. The Blueprint ratings are based on data
points which are crowd sourced from buyers, providers, advisors and
influencers of Managed Security Services.
The report notes Wipro’s differentiated ability to blend
cybersecurity with end-to-end digital and business services
designed to support specific business outcomes and integrate into
non-security services. It particularly highlights Wipro’s potential
to move quickly with emerging physical and digital services to
address emerging, non-traditional, and behavioural threats.
“Driving ecosystem security through integrated security and
digital frameworks, Wipro has a focus that aligns extremely well
with the HfS Digital Trust Framework, and has backed it up with a
business strategy that has helped position it very well,” said
Fred McClimans.
Sheetal Mehta, Vice President & Global Head of Enterprise
Security Solutions, Business Application Services, Wipro
Limited, said, "As enterprises take the Digital leap, the
greater role of security is to embed behaviour and trust in all the
initiatives being taken. Wipro's inclusion in HfS Winner’s Circle
reinforces our commitment towards security being an enabler of
digital initiatives of the future. Our strategic investments in
innovative security platforms, coupled with industry solutions and
