We pride ourselves on transforming IT into tangible business solutions, and in the area of security, it is critical that the solutions we offer continue to advance and protect organisations’ IT networks.”
Roberto Llop, director EMEA Channels at RSA - The Security Division of EMC - said, “Avnet enjoyed impressive business development in its first year as an EMEA distribution partner for RSA. We look forward to leveraging even more the quality of Avnet’s security teams and distribution partner networks for the delivery of our advanced security solutions.
