Kaseya, Safe Systems Partner for Enhanced Delivery of Automated IT Systems Management to Financial Institutions

Protect, Comply, Reduce Costs with Co-Managed Solution

ARLINGTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kaseya®, the leading global provider of automated IT systems management software and Safe Systems, winner of the 2011 BankNews Innovative Solutions Award, and national leader in compliance-centric IT support and hosted services exclusively for financial institutions, today announce a new partnership to offer a customized IT management solution designed specifically for financial institutions.

“We are thrilled to partner with Kaseya, especially with the rapidly changing threat landscape for financial institutions”

“IT staff are stretched thin in today’s ‘do more with less’ banking environment,” Mark Sutherland, president of Kaseya said. “However, many financial institutions continue to rely on time-consuming and error-prone manual processes for IT systems management tasks such as configuring and monitoring antivirus software, server hardening, verifying backups, and patch reporting. By automating IT tasks, financial institutions can enable the IT staff to focus on proactive, value-added systems management rather than putting out fires or performing redundant tasks.”

Expectations on IT management continue to expand, making it increasingly important for institutions to prove they are managing their IT infrastructures properly. As an all-in-one platform, this customized IT solution will allow banks and credit unions to better manage systems, utilizing features such as comprehensive compliance reporting and documentation.

“We are thrilled to partner with Kaseya, especially with the rapidly changing threat landscape for financial institutions,” said Darren Bridges, president of Safe Systems. “It is essential that an effective IT management program be used to mitigate risk in order to proactively protect and manage the financial institution’s network. The time and resources needed to devote to the ever-growing complexity of IT operations and addressing enhanced regulatory scrutiny may not be available to many banks and credit unions. Using a third party for IT management review solves this problem in the financial industry.”
