QTS Press Release Release Date: July 8, 2002 QTS Announces Its Membership in the Microsoft Gold Certified Partner Program for Security Solutions (South Orange, NJ) July 8, 2002 – Quality Technology Solutions, Inc. (“QTS”), a network integrator providing services to maximize the security, reliability and availability of corporate networks, today announced that it is a new member in the Microsoft Gold Certified Partner Program for Security Solutions. QTS offers a broad range of security solutions that address the growing threats to proprietary data and systems performance including viruses, hackers, e-mail spam and theft. In a recent survey conducted by the Computer Security Institute (http://www.gocsi.com/), 90% of the respondents detected security breaches in the past 12 months and over 80% acknowledged financial losses. With financial losses from attacks climbing each year, companies are dependent on affordable and effective security solutions to identify and resolve areas of vulnerability. QTS, which provides comprehensive security services including vulnerability testing, firewalls, authentication, intrusion detection and VPN solutions under its QuikSecure™ service, has been named as a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner for Security Solutions due to its proven commitment and expertise in building or delivering security solutions based on Microsoft technologies. Membership in the Microsoft Gold Certified Partner Program provides QTS with additional resources to help design and implement security-focused solutions based on the Microsoft technology platform. “Companies cannot underestimate this threat to their business,” said Neil Rosenberg, QTS’ CEO. “Network security is a constant battle which requires proactive protection and quick response. With our new status as a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner for Security Solutions, QTS will have earliest available access to technical-readiness materials and Microsoft technologies and incremental training opportunities.” The Microsoft Gold Certified Partner Program allows QTS to utilize the Microsoft Gold Certified Partner brand, an easy way for customers to recognize QTS as having attained the top partner program certification offered by Microsoft Corporation. QTS is only the 11th company in the United States to achieve Microsoft Gold Certified Partner for Security Solutions status, and only the 25th worldwide. “The Gold Partner Program for Security Solutions is a valuable resource for customers looking to identify solution providers dedicated to upholding the highest industry standards and best practices for secure systems,” said Steve Lipner, director of Security Assurance at Microsoft. “QTS has proven its commitment to and expertise in building and delivering security solutions based on Microsoft technologies, and we are pleased to be working with QTS to help our collective customers get secure and stay secure.” “Given the level of competition in the
market today, customers must evaluate new technology partners very
critically,” said Rosa Garcia, general manager of the Partner Sales and
Marketing Group at Microsoft. “They
need to be assured that a technology provider has the experience and the
resources to get them to market quickly and securely, without the
security-related issues that often accompany a major technology
deployment. QTS has clearly
demonstrated that it has not only the experience and capacity, but also
the commitment to developing the intimate knowledge of Microsoft
technology solutions necessary to drive the security, functionality and
reliability essential to today’s enterprise-level customer.
This distinction brings value to the Microsoft Gold Certified
Partner Program, and Microsoft is pleased to welcome QTS into the
Microsoft Gold Certified Partner Program for Security Solutions.” QTS developed a Network Security Lifecycle methodology that includes a series of solutions under it QuikSecure™ service. Rosenberg, a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (“CISSP”), explains, "QuikSecure covers Security Policy Development, Security Architecture and Implementation, Security Management, Auditing and Vulnerability Management. Since most companies are unaware of many areas of vulnerability, the first step to proactive protection is conducting a thorough security audit. It’s critical to know what damage can be done to the business before it happens.” According to Rosenberg, “Microsoft is a key business partner for QTS, since Microsoft technologies dominate many organizations’ networking, from the desktop to the data center. Effectively securing modern LANs requires a strong focus on all elements of the network, including a wide range of Microsoft products.” Rosenberg noted that QTS has significantly developed its security practice over the past several years as part of its “worry-free networking” strategy, to maximize network uptime and reliability for its customers. “Security vulnerabilities have become the most significant threat to network uptime in the new century,” said Rosenberg, “and a strong security posture is critical to maintaining availability of the network and its resources, for businesses worldwide.”About QTS: Quality Technology Solutions is a leading network integrator offering network infrastructure, network management, security and disaster recovery services to achieve higher reliability and availability for corporate networks.
