Colt wins prestigious Spanish ComunicacionesHoy Award

London, 6 December 2013Colt IP Guardian, a reliable and cost-effective service from Colt designed to protect customers networks from Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, has won the Computing Security Solution of the Year award at Spain’s prestigious ComunicacionesHoy awards. Colt IP Guardian was praised for its cutting-edge design and functionality, which safeguards enterprises from security attacks.

The annual awards reward innovation and excellence in the IT and communications industry. Recognising the best products, solutions and ICT projects, finalists were selected by a group of technology experts representing the country’s leading businesses and international research companies. Now in its sixth year, the awards brought together 120 of the most influential industry executives at an awards ceremony held at Hotel Intercontinental in Madrid.

Scott Allen, marketing director for Colt’s enterprise services, said: “Security has always been a key concern for our customers, particularly with the proliferation of data and applications across their business. This award recognises our efforts in protecting customers against increasing cyber security threats that can jeopardise their business continuity and have a direct impact on financial performance and brand reputation. Many enterprises have deployed security measures to protect their key services, which are essential to have in place, but not purposely built for protection against Denial of Service and Distributed Denial of Service attacks. Our IP Guardian solution is quick to implement, resilient and cost-effective, and is already enabling our customers to prevent and reduce the impact of coordinated cyber attacks.”

Colt Ceano and Colt INteractiv were also ComunicacionesHoy finalists in Cloud Computing Application and Contact Centre award categories respectively.
