“Most of the time, SMEs are unaware that they are already under attack,” said Quiel Delgado, president and CEO, Radius Telecoms Inc. “And when they do discover the breach, they do not know how to recover from it. This setup is common in small operations where end-point protections are not given importance. And we cannot blame the business owners for maintaining a lean team wherein IT support is typically outsourced or there is none at all.”
Radius, through its Ignite brand, is bringing the globally recognized leader for cybersecurity and firewall solutions, Fortinet, to help the SMB segment.
Radius Telecoms is a 100% Meralco company, delivering services on an end-to-end full fiber optic network covering more than 5,000 km in the Metro Manila and nearby provinces, as well as Clark and Cebu, with plans to expand to other major cities in the Visayas region by 2021.
