What Are the Benefits of Working With a Trusted Tier 1 Partner?

By working with a Trusted Tier 1 Partner for EMCRC like Redpalm, your business can reap several benefits!
Here are our top picks:

Protection Against Cyber Threats

The more technology advances, the more evolved cyber criminals become.
That said, you need to plan for data recovery beforehand to safeguard your organisation against threats. For the sake of ensuring business continuity, it is best to future-proof your company.
The best way to do this would be to leverage our Cyber Security solutions to ensure the ongoing security of your operation, in both the public and private sector.

Instant Recoverability

Recoverability is the process of getting back to regular operations should your business suffer a cyber attack.
Your business should have complete data backups on various networks in order to minimise damage and ensure your business is up and running as quickly as possible. This data can be used after an attack if any or all business-critical information is wiped out.
At Redpalm, we test the robustness of your IT environment using different simulations to ensure the safety of your network. To ensure that your business and employees are always prepared, we also conduct the necessary security training.
If you already have a disaster recovery plan in place for when a network breach occurs, all employees in your organisation should participate in the simulation.
In doing so, you’ll be able to reinforce your cyber resilience.

Adaptability

Given the ever-evolving tactics of cyber attackers, it’s important to ensure that your organisation is able to cope and adapt to the changes in your IT environment. In the event of a cyber attack, your flexibility and adaptability will help you in minimising the risks at hand.
However, with other mission-critical tasks, it could be a bit difficult for your in-house IT team to constantly monitor the entire IT infrastructure.
This is where partnering with Redpalm, a Trusted Tier 1 Partner for EMCRC, can make all the difference.
With us by your side, you can easily identify a cyber threat in real-time and take immediate action to minimise the risks.

Why Choose Redpalm As Your Dedicated IT Partner?

At Redpalm, we offer our IT solutions to businesses of all sizes in both private and public sectors, all of whom value our pedigree in offering business-focused managed IT services and other certifications.
We are highly committed to being the most proactive and Trusted Tier 1 Partner for EMCRC and through our involvement with them, we always strive to remain at the forefront of safeguarding businesses from cyber threats.
