Lawrie will focus on the evolution and projection of current and imminent threats, and the technological resources necessary to neutralize them. Also discussed will be the frameworks needed for building a solid vendor/partner relationship in order to deploy cost-efficient solutions within appropriate timeframes and conditions between IT security vendors and resellers in the SMB space.
"The threats facing the Canadian SMB community are quickly changing as criminal organizations focus their attention away from heavily fortified large enterprises. The IT security market for SMBs has to grow quickly and the Canadian reseller community working with these SMBs must partner with antivirus companies that are quick to react to attacks, affordable and easy-to-install and maintain," said Lawrie. "With one of the most aggressive channel partner programs in North America, BitDefender has made a concentrated effort to establish itself as a part of the Canadian IT world and with a clear understanding of Canadian issues."
