Senetas appoints ITDC as CypherNet reseller in Thailand
Senetas Corporation Limited (ASX:SEN) today announced it has signed a
reseller agreement with IT Distribution Company Limited (ITDC), a publiclylisted
company in Thailand, for Senetas CypherNet high speed network
encryption products.
The agreement was negotiated last week in Bangkok by Senetas CEO John DuBois
with Khun Adisorn Singluedej, Vice President of ITDC, which specialises in IT
Security and a range of other enterprise solutions including Networking and
Infrastructure, Network Management and Performance Improvement and Storage.
Mr DuBois said that Senetas had worked in Thailand over the past six months to
identify a suitable reseller, meanwhile introducing its CypherNet Encryption Security
Platform to a range of government departments and agencies, Thai military and law
enforcement, plus finance and banking enterprises.
“So far we have been successful in selling and implementing our CypherNet Cerberis
hybrid quantum encryption system at the influential government agency NECTEC
(National Electronics and Computer Technology Center), which is responsible for the
development of Information Technology and ensuring Thailand's competitiveness in
the sector,” Mr DuBois said.
He said NECTEC’s use of Senetas encryption technology and it ability to act as a
reference site for both government and enterprise customers was a significant
advantage in marketing CypherNet in the Kingdom. He said planning was already
underway for a series of joint presentations and security workshops with ITDC and
NECTEC to educate and inform Thai business and government agencies regarding the
best methods to manage growing information security risks in the region.
Khun Adisorn said: “Senetas as a world leader in high speed network encryption and
we believe there is great opportunity to expand the use of globally-accredited
encryption in Thailand. ITDC has a group of network and system integrators who act
as our resellers to both government and enterprise customers nationwide.”
Mr DuBois said Thailand’s computer network infrastructure, particularly in bank
headquarters in Bangkok, had been updated recently to be on a par with Australia.
“We have already identified sales opportunities for our range of high speed devices,
running at up to 10 Gigabits per second, and for our new Fibre Channel encryption to
secure Storage Area Network data in motion,” Mr DuBois said.
