“Security is a team sport and only by working together will we get ahead of the bad guys,” said Peter Doggart, vice president, business development. “We’re moving into a very exciting time in IT, where we can start to really work together in an environment that was born to be dynamic-- the cloud. It will enable us to share intelligence, use services and react to attacks or data breaches incredibly efficiently.”

The Blue Coat Cloud Ready Partner Program is designed to provide customers a method to integrate and adopt new services into a broader security framework for the Cloud Generation, limiting the risk of cloud adoption and Shadow IT.
