Committed to supporting its EMEA customers through specialist resellers, system administrators and consultants, Shavlik is working to ease access to comprehensive and flexible solutions that simplify operational security.

“We are particularly excited about developments in this region as we see more and more companies recognize the need to apply the constant effort that only automation can provide to managing ever-changing security vulnerabilities, security posture drift, and to close the gaps in their security and compliance state,” said Butchart. “At Shavlik we have matured the technologies to ensure they are very easy to deploy, provide comprehensive network visibility, and have the flexibility to accommodate point solutions that companies may already have in place.”

“We’ve fielded growing interest from the EMEA region. The appointment of a European MD and expansion of the team in Europe reflects this and will ensure we can help our partners be in the best position to respond to the opportunity” said Ed Peek, Shavlik Technologies’ vice president of worldwide sales.
