to Anoop Hegde, country manager, First Indian Corporation: "Information
security takes on a much greater significance as Indian companies take on
higher end work often involving proprietary and sensitive data," As the
risk of external threats proliferates, optimal information security management
has become a paramount concern for our business, Cybertrust's TruSecure Perimeter
Certification confirms that we are following essential practices to maintain
appropriate levels of information security. Cybertrust
is a leading managed-security services provider (MSSP). Its security analysts
work with network administrators over a period of time to create a customised

Real-time updates to Cybertrust's essential security practices and alerts,
accessible through the dashboard, enable organisations to manage more effectively
security in a constantly changing environment. The
Cybertrust dashboard determines the 'right level' of security controls by
identifying the relationships between networks, devices, applications, people
and physical locations. Additionally, customers are notified about new vulnerabilities
through Cybertrust's alert service. Cybertrust
