Canon India, one of the top providers of digital imaging solutions, today announced a strategic alliance with ESET, a leader in cybersecurity, to broaden its wide offering of office automation solutions. Through this agreement, Canon will support its customers' whole digital transformation journeys across organisations, demonstrating its business can be simple ethos.
 
The threat of cyberattacks and data breaches has grown as more companies go digital and adopt hybrid working. Companies struggle to stay up to date with the newest dangers as a result of the ongoing evolution of cybercriminals' strategies. Through this collaboration, Canon India and ESET will work to offer complete cybersecurity solutions, including the ESET PROTECT platform, which enables companies of all sizes to defend themselves against sophisticated cyberthreats like targeted attacks, ransomware, zero-day threats, advanced persistent threats, and phishing attacks. The solutions can be set up either locally or on the cloud.
 
Furthermore, Canon's proficiency in automation, applications, and infrastructure enables the business to provide end-to-end service support, including expert consultation and easy implementation.  
 
Speaking on the announcement, Manabu Yamazaki, President & CEO, Canon India said, “With digitalization becoming core to multiple business operations, companies across the globe have been pushing boundaries when it comes to technological adoption in their infrastructure. The need for digital transformation is particularly being observed more in the SME segment as they manage and absorb the changes of the new normal post-pandemic. This rapid adoption of digitalization has also created new challenges and threats, making cybersecurity among the top priorities for businesses, especially with cyber-attacks becoming more frequent and sophisticated in recent times. With the introduction of ESET solutions to our office automation gamut, we are enabling our customers to stay one step ahead of potential threats and provide them with an efficient and secure digital network.”
