SysGroup has secured more than £1m of new cyber resilience contracts and become the first managed service provider in the UK and Ireland to join data security firm Rubrik’s PayGo programme.
The AIM-listed IT services group said it had signed two three-year deals with a UK housing association and an English further education provider to deliver managed data protection, cyber resilience and recovery services using Rubrik’s technology platform.
Joining Rubrik’s MSP PayGo scheme gives SysGroup a more flexible, scalable way to offer those capabilities as a managed service, without customers facing large upfront costs.
The company said the tie-up aligns with its “MSP 3.0” and AI strategy and provides a platform for further growth in its managed cyber resilience business.
Heejae Chae, Executive Chairman of SysGroup plc, said: “Becoming the first UK&I MSP to join Rubrik’s PayGo programme is strategically important for SysGroup. It combines Rubrik’s market-leading cyber resilience platform with our ability to advise, implement and manage complex customer environments.
“The result is a differentiated proposition: enterprise-grade data protection and ransomware resilience delivered as a flexible managed service, without requiring customers to take on the cost, complexity or capacity commitments normally associated with enterprise technology.”
