About Westcon Security

Westcon Security was founded in February 2001 and became one of the leading distributors of IT Security products in Sub-Saharan Africa  by offering best-of-breed encryption technology, Content Security and LifeCycle Management Systems in Southern Africa. With the merger of Biodata and Westcon in September 2010, the newly formed Westcon Security, a division of Westcon SA have set a new standard of excellence by combining the most prominent names in network security-based solutions which is supported by our advanced support services. Westcon Security, is a leading value-added distributor of networking and security technologies and professional services, and with security threats, time is critical, expertise is essential and with more than a decade of our combined years of expertise in the security business, we know what it takes to build and securely protect your infrastructure.

Westcon Security recognises the role security plays in the daily operations of all organisations irrespective of their size and by forging partnerships with leading international vendors and investing heavily in our workforce, we are able to deliver security solutions that incorporate best-of-breed technology and trusted advice that supports the purchase decision. This business model is based on aligning operations with the key business drivers of vendor and reseller partners. We under-stand that security is much more far reaching than simply buying protection products. It's about planning, strategy, watertight implementation and monitoring. We work with resellers to assess their customers' security needs from planning to implementation and monitoring.

Aside from providing resellers with the best possible selection of security products, we work with our resellers to enable them exploit the potential of those products within their customer base. We achieve this by supporting resellers with expert knowledge, vendor-accredited sales and technical training, strategic marketing assistance and a range of value-add professional services. Importantly, we have the much needed resources to enable our resellers in their efforts to win business, by means of document preparation, technical expertise and pilot program development.
