Roy Ramati added: “These industry leaders are joining with us because they recognize the importance IT managers and security executives place on the interoperability of IT solutions. Beyond compatibility testing, we hope SESTA will be a launch pad for numerous strategic and technology alliances among partners to help our mutual customers cope with their ongoing security challenges.”
