Haptic become CrowdStrike Partners

Haptic are ecstatic to announce an official partnership with CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike have been announced as being the highest in execution & furthest in vision, in the visionaries quadrant of 2018 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms. 12 of the 20 Fortune Largest Global Companies have deployed CrowdStrike and they have a vast amount of positive industry recognition.

The CrowdStrike Falcon® platform is pioneering cloud-delivered endpoint protection. It both delivers and unifies IT Hygiene, next-generation antivirus, endpoint detection and response (EDR), managed threat hunting, and threat intelligence — all delivered via a single lightweight agent. Using its purpose-built cloud-native architecture, the Falcon platform collects and analyses over 1 trillion endpoint events per week from millions of sensors deployed across 176 countries.

CrowdStrike® Falcon Insight™ eliminates silent failure by providing the highest level of real-time monitoring capabilities that span across detection, response and forensics. This ensures nothing is missed, leaving attackers with no place to hide. Falcon Insight provides organizations with state-of-the-art endpoint detection and response (EDR), following an approach recommended by top analyst firms such as Gartner.

What If You Could Find Answers To Important But Hard Questions? What endpoints - physical, virtual and EC2 instances - are on my network? Where are administrator credentials being used in my network? What applications are my users running? Which ones are mine and which ones are "rogue"?

Falcon Discover can help to deliver this visibility without having a performance impact on the end device.

We are excited to work with such a prestigious company, further strengthening our security capabilities and offerings to end users.

Juniper and Ruckus Wireless forge partnership

Juniper Networks and Ruckus Wireless unveiled a new alliance this week.

Ruckus and Juniper will work together to deliver a complete wired and wireless solution, with the overall aim of increasing network flexibility and reducing total cost of ownership for customers.

As global technology leaders with carrier grade wired and wireless networking respectively, they share a common DNA of delivering superior performance and scalability
to the most demanding customers on the planet by leveraging innovations in software and open-based standards. And now, together they are uniquely positioned to deliver even higher levels of performance and stronger ROI.

The new partnership is based on open standards-based solutions and products from both companies built on Juniper's Open Converged Framework for the enterprise network, with the alliance targeting solutions for the commerce and educational markets.

With the increased volume and sophistication of networking needs, IT security organizations are under enormous pressure to keep
their network simple, easy to scale and manage, while still delivering the best quality of experience to their users. Juniper Networks
and Ruckus Wireless share the same philosophy and goal: to make the network simple for IT managers. Together, Juniper and
Ruckus make it easy to deploy, scale, and manage both the wired and the wireless networks as one single infrastructure.
As long standing partners of both Ruckus Wireless and Juniper, we at Haptic are incredbily excited about the advancements that will materialise from this new development.

Haptic Networks Joins Google Education Partner Program

Last week we had the privilege of being invited to Google’s UK HQ in London. Feeling somewhat like Charlie Bucket on his trip to Mr Wonka’s establishment explains our anticipation.

With Google’s focus on altering the conventional way in which users in Education and Business utilise mobile devices, we were a perfect fit for their Partner Program.

Sadly no oompa-loompas were present, although it’s fair to say they have an excellent work environment and they truly convey a solid passion and a keen eye for what the tech users in Education & Business really need. We were greeted by a superb team from across the world, all present (in casual attire, naturally) to sit and work with us to understand how their offerings can have the upmost effectiveness at improving staff and student experience.

Since the launch of Chromebooks from brands such as Acer, Toshiba, HP, DELL and Lenovo users have already seen the benefits of the light, cost effective and easy to use/share devices. As a Google authorised reseller we at Haptic are enabled to provide the one off Chrome Management License to Education for just £19 per device (ex VAT)

We also offer a full deployment service, working with you to make the process of deployment and support as easy as taking the Chromebooks out of the box and handing directly to staff/students.

We have an extensive range of Chromebooks to hand for demo purposes, ask us for your free trial and we’ll arrange one for you. Likewise if you’d like to know more about Google’s offerings, let us know. Whether it’s a call, email, webinar or visit you’d prefer, we can arrange it.
