Sencinet Expands Managed Network Services in Argentina with Fortinet Secure SD-WAN

The telecommunications and cloud services integrator combines high-quality connectivity and cybersecurity expertise with Fortinet's Secure SD-WAN solution, through which security and networks converge to reduce complexity and cost.

SD-WAN enables organizations of all sizes to enhance the user and application experience while enabling the flexibility and cost benefits of a hybrid network.

Network transformation through SD-WAN leads to a broader attack surface, which means that traditional perimeter-based security is insufficient.

Sencinet's Sales Director for the Southern Cone, Víctor Cucut, comments that the beginning of the alliance with Fortinet in Argentina is due to the identification of a series of conditions considered ideal in the country for an accelerated joint business expansion. "We are already in advanced negotiations with a significant number of companies from the most diverse sectors. I believe that we will soon have the opportunity to develop negotiation models that can be exported to other LATAM countries where we are present," he says.

To help address the scale and variety of cyber threats that continue to grow at an alarming rate, with more than 91 billion attempted cyber attacks reported in Latin America and the Caribbean in the first half of 2021, the service provider will improve also its managed firewall service with the addition of Fortinet's Secure SD-WAN, providing organizations with a solution that completely combines security and connectivity in a single device.
