Genians Expands Zero Trust Solution Supply Through Partnership with Deloitte

Genians is expanding its influence in overseas cybersecurity.

Cybersecurity specialist Genians announced on the 7th that it has signed a strategic partnership with multinational consulting firm Deloitte. This move was based on the acquisition of Genians' Chilean partner, Macros, by Deloitte.

Macros has supplied Genians' Network Access Control (NAC) solutions to the Chilean market for the past three years, achieving a 132% increase in NAC sales and a 100% customer retention rate. Genians plans to actively collaborate with Deloitte to expand the global supply chain of end-to-end cybersecurity services and solutions, not only in Chile but worldwide.

Genians is recognized globally for its technological capabilities by offering comprehensive NAC types, including subscription-based cloud NAC. It has been selected as the representative company for the 'Gartner NAC Market Guide' for three consecutive years, uniquely in Korea and the Asia-Pacific region. It has entered the top 5 in global NAC market share.

With the increase of various devices such as IoT and OT participating in network environments, security requirements are strengthening, expanding the role and market of NAC. Gartner mentioned Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) as an extended technology of NAC and predicted that NAC could play a key role in next-generation security in distributed IT environments such as cloud and remote work.

Marcelo Diaz, Cyber Risk Partner at Deloitte, said, "Genians' NAC solution provides flexible deployment options that effectively and economically meet customers' business and IT environments," adding, "As Genians NAC evolves to support the foundational technology for Zero Trust implementation, its position in the enterprise cybersecurity market is further strengthened."

Gye-yeon Kim, CTO of Genians and head of its U.S. branch, said, "Genians has expanded NAC functions to support Zero Trust security architecture," and added, "We will accelerate global cybersecurity business activation by collaborating with Deloitte within the Zero Trust framework."
