The internet of things is big, getting bigger, and bringing almost unlimited possibilities as well as new risks. These risks represent one area in particular that Syniverse has been helping customers to address, and just a few weeks ago, our effort culminated in the release of our newest cybersecurity solution – Syniverse Secure Global Access – and a lot of positive media buzz about it.

The solution provides a private, isolated global network that enables businesses to protect their data in an age of digital transformation when the IoT and other technologies are creating greater levels of risk on the public internet. In just the last few years, in fact, the public internet has seen calamities like distributed denial of service attacks on a scale not able to even be imagined until recently, attacks that have taken down business web servers worldwide and hit some of the largest banks, retailers, media companies, social networks and news outlets. Syniverse Secure Global Access offers a network entirely isolated from the public internet that enables businesses a full-scale solution that avoids these threats.

We’re encouraged by the initial media coverage we’ve received on this so far, which I invite you to check out a sampling of below. We look forward to building on this momentum this year and continuing to help customers take on the rapidly increasing risks of today’s age of digital transformation.
