SGT Solutions, formerly Saab Grintek Technologies, the renowned telecommunications system integrator, has partnered with Netacea.

In 2020, Forrester ranked Netacea as a market leader in bot management. Netacea’s differentiating server-side bot management technology utilises advanced machine learning, in the growing pursuit to detect malicious bot activity to protect Web sites, mobile apps and APIs from attacks such as credential stuffing and account takeover.

The technology is uniquely equipped to detect sophisticated threats, combining extensive signal collection with deep analysis and dashboards that address both security and business context in the enterprise environment.

Netacea’s bot management solution is the most accurate on the market, providing fast and accurate identification between real users and bots with a false positive rate of only 0.001%.

Actionable intelligence with data-rich visualisations empowers you to make informed decisions about your traffic. Netacea can seamlessly integrate at the Content Delivery Network (CDN) layer, with Web Application Firewalls, directly with application logs, or indirectly via a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) to help businesses mitigate the threat to their infrastructure associated with bad bots.

Unlike other by-passable solutions that rely on in-browser JavaScript signals, Netacea’s machine learning approach, powered by its pioneering Intent Analytics™ engine, analyses millions of requests to quickly mitigate even the most sophisticated bot attacks. Netacea brings an affordable world-class bot management solution to the African market, enabling SGT to provide solutions that are easy and fast to deploy, yet delivering predictable high accuracy performance.

Joe Murray, Sales and Marketing Director, said: "Netacea is excited to be partnering with SGT to bring industry-leading bot management technology to the telecommunications and financial services markets in Africa. Automated attacks are becoming more frequent and sophisticated in nature, and Netacea is uniquely placed to solve this problem."

SGT Solutions is a black-owned, Level-1 B-BBEE company that has been an active player in the telecoms and networking industry for more than 25 years and is a recognised and well-established system integrator company in the ICT sector. It has a proud history of adopting new technologies that can be attributed to the faster pace of development and the introduction of new technologies in the ICT arena.

SGT Solutions is proud of its track record of successfully implementing and supporting many large and complex networks in South Africa. This exposure in working with complex networks has afforded its technical support teams a vast amount of experience and a strong reputation for delivering on time and to our customers’ satisfaction. Our customers, which include mobile as well as fixed-line network operators, also span across multimedia service providers, financial, government, public safety and providers of mission-critical services.

“SGT is optimistic about our Netacea partnership to Boot Out Threats with bot management,” notes Suraj Ramlall, CTO, SGT Solutions.
