Penta Security Enters Indonesian Market by Signing New Distributor PT. Prospera Aswindra Teknologi
Penta Security Systems Inc. signed a distribution agreement with PT. Prospera Aswindra Teknologi, Indonesia’s leading tech distributor for IT security products and solutions. This marks the South Korean security vendor’s official entry into the Indonesian market.
Being the largest economy in Southeast Asia and a country undergoing a major digital transformation, Indonesia sees high demand for cybersecurity solutions as governments and businesses face a growing number of cyber threats. To tackle Indonesia’s cybersecurity challenges, protecting web applications from web attacks is crucial, making web application firewalls (WAF) a necessity for all organizations.
Penta Security’s WAPPLES has been chosen by PT. Prospera Aswindra Teknologi along with a number of other regional distributors, to fill out the WAF portion of their security solutions package. Different from signature-based detection systems, WAPPLES’ COCEP engine utilizes dozens of rules instead of thousands of signatures, significantly reducing latency while offering the same level of detection capability. WAPPLES’ users can choose from a total of 33 customizable rules to fine-tune their security policies to best handle their environment.
“To overcome the increased sophistication of web attacks, WAPPLES’ rule-based COCEP engine operates more logically and efficiently than existing WAFs in the market,” said DS Kim, Chief Strategy Officer of Penta Security. “Our priority is to focus on staying ahead of the attacks whilst letting our users operate their businesses in the safest environment. We’re excited to move forward with the partnership and provide what’s really worth our customers’ investment.”
Despite travel restrictions caused by COVID-19, Penta Security has been hosting a number of online seminars to support its channel partners, distributors, and business customers. A recent seminar designated for the Jakarta region drew the attendance of more than 50 public and private organizations.
