Oman Data Park (ODP) and Cisco have announced that ODP has deployed Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) as part of its ODP Managed Security Services for end point protection.
Oman Data Park is the first managed service provider in Oman, offering managed cloud services, public cloud, co-location and managed security services to both large and small organisations in Oman.
In February, ODP launched their 3rd data centre in Oman at Duqm. ODP Duqm Data Centre complements the other two active data centres: Knowledge Oasis Muscat and Wattayah. At the Duqm Data Centre, Oman Data Park partnered with Cisco to offer managed security services.
'Since the start of ODP, partnering with Cisco has been a strategic decision in line with our vision to provide stable, reliable and highly available data centre services. Cisco continues to be our key technology provider for Oman Data Park as we expand and roll out our third data centre. Based on the early success of Knowledge Oasis Muscat and Wattayah Data Centres, we were confident that Cisco would give us the same benefits with our third data centre. Using Cisco Data Centre Networking, Compute, Collaboration, Security and many other solutions, we are able to control our total cost of ownership, avoid complexity while building resiliency and significantly differentiate our services. From our Duqm data centre, we intend to offer cloud services to government and commercial entities, with a strong focus on the banking and financial industry,' said Maqbool al Wahaibi, CEO, Oman Data Park.
'Cisco is looking forward to work with Oman Data Park and provide multiple new solutions, including Application & Business Performance, Cloud Managed Infrastructure and Software Defined Networking (SDN) platforms, with a scalable network performance of 40Gbps,' said Ali al Lawati, general manager, Cisco Oman.
Maitham al Lawati, general manager, Risk & Compliance at ODP, said, 'With Cisco AMP, we will be able to offer our customers a next-generation endpoint security solution that prevents, detects and responds to advanced threats.'
