Bridge Point awarded RSA Partner of the Year

Brisbane, Australia, 21 December, 2012 – Bridge Point Communications, a specialist network, compliance, data management and information security company, today announced it was named ‘Partner of the Year, 2012’ by RSA – the Security Division of EMC – a provider of security, risk and compliance management solutions.

The award recognises Bridge Point’s strong sales, technical performance and expertise in delivering RSA information security and Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) solutions.

RSA’s products help organisations to solve their most complex and sensitive security challenges including managing organisational risk, safeguarding mobile access and collaboration, proving compliance, and securing virtual and cloud environments.

Bridge Point has established itself as a leading Information Security and GRC consulting services provider. Supporting clients throughout Australia, Bridge Point has built strong capabilities for designing, implementing and supporting RSA products in the region since 2002.

“Bridge Point has a long history of partnering with RSA. As an organsation, RSA aims to support their partners and customers in ensuring the safety of the digital world, while enabling them to run successful businesses. Through strategic acquisition over the last two years, RSA has added NetWitness and Archer to their security management portfolio.  They have put a lot of focus into building out the capabilities of these solutions, which has complemented Bridge Point’s information security and GRC practices perfectly.

 “Bridge Point has significantly invested in its Information Security consultancy group which heavily focuses on GRC, with the RSA Archer platform underpinning this,” said Shaun McLagan, General Manager – ANZ, RSA.

“Bridge Point has achieved key wins in the banking, utilities and healthcare sectors and has sold across the RSA portfolio.  Bridge Point has seen significant growth across the RSA Security Management and Compliance space, and grown their RSA business by 43% year on year.  We are very excited to have Bridge Point as one of our partners and look forward to developing an even stronger relationship with them in coming years.”

Tim Smith, Director of Bridge Point Communications said, “Bridge Point is delighted to have been recognised by RSA for our commitment to delivering information security and GRC solutions to our customers. The ability to provide information security expertise to our customers is more important now than ever before as regulatory requirements continue to grow and information security risks increasingly become a board-level concern. Bridge Point’s highly skilled and experienced consultants truly offer our customers peace of mind as trusted advisors in all facets of information security in this growing market.”
