You don’t get many days like this one, today we are officially launching not one, but two of our new vendor signings! Don’t worry, this doesn’t mean that we are moving away from our focused portfolio to a more broadline approach, these vendors both offer technology solutions which are compelling in their own right, and which also complement our existing offerings beautifully. They more than meet the Ethos’ brief of helping organisations create policy-defined infrastructures which are both feature rich and highly secure, whilst also being simple, flexible, and efficient.
