e-Cop Fortifies Presence in Thailand

Global Command Centre to deliver award winning and industry leading info-security surveilance services to Thai enterprise.

Bangkok, 13 September 2007 - e-Cop, the leading managed risk and information security services provider strengthens its business presence in Thailand by establishing a new office and Global Command Centre (GCC) in Bangkok. The GCC which will operate 24x7x365 will deliver its state of the art and multiple award winning info-security surveillance and professional services.

"With the escalating IT security spending and the growing need for enterprises and governments to better secure themselves, we believe this is the right time for e-Cop to deepen its presence and commitment to its customers by establishing its Thailand GCC. As a trusted partner to multiple governments in the region as well as leading financial institutions and telecommunication companies, among others, e-Cop’s mission in Thailand is twofold," says Mr. Eddie Chau, Founder and CEO of e-Cop. He further explains, "Firstly, we want to help Thai organisations to better manage their business risk associated to information technology. Secondly, we hope to share our global experiences and help shape the industry towards one that constantly embraces the leading best practices and other internationally recognised standards."

"For the last few years, e-Cop has been operating through its channel partner in Thailand. We are now moving into a higher gear to build a stronger rapport with both our partners and clients to further enhance the quality of service," added Chau.

Recognised as a pioneer in its field, e-Cop today operates the largest number of Global Command Centres in the region, that leverage on its proprietary Enterprise Security Management technology, world standard BS7799/ISO27001 certified processes and know-how, and fully qualified security consultants. e-Cop is an integral member of the Forum for Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST) and is an active player in issuing early warning and threat notifications – information it collates from its network of GCC. e-Cop’s expertise in Managed Security Services (MSS) and strong track record in developing and running Security Operations Centres (SOCs) has helped many enterprises and government agencies to cost effectively outsource and manage their information security needs. The company’s technologies are fully backed by its dedicated R&D expertise that ensures continued technological advantage. Expanding beyond the outsourced MSS market, e-Cop has innovatively commercialised the same operating Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) technologies which are employed in-house, to provide robust security solutions and support to its clients for their internal use. Its suite of highly-customised Professional Security Services (PSS) has also earned a strong traction among its clients.

"Thailand’s Info-Security market has very exciting opportunities and it’s a significant market to us. The government has recently enforced ‘The Computer Crime Act 2007’, which was designed to enhance national security and empower law-enforcement agencies to more effectively deal with crimes committed. We strongly believe that our leading know-how in information security can help organisations manage risk and secure them from a holistic perspective with a range of information security services and solutions," said Mr. Lim Kok Keng, Managing Director and Regional VP of e-Cop.
