Six Degrees, has been appointed by ScanSafe, a pioneer in the field of managed web security services. The appointment means that Six Degrees now handles all of ScanSafe’s media and industry analyst relations requirements in the UK.
Increasingly companies are being targeted for attack when they are on the Internet – viruses, spyware and other web-bourne threats. ScanSafe is the first company of its kind to keep Internet users safe and productive via a managed service that requires no investment in software or hardware – providing a first line of defence against malicious attacks. Business is booming for the fast-growing British company, which last year was rated one of Red Herring’s Top 100 European Technology companies.
With demand for its web scanning, web filtering, spyware scanning and instant messaging services growing at a rate of 300 per cent per year, ScanSafe’s Chief Executive, Eldar Tuvey, sees PR as playing a pivotal role in raising the company’s profile above the noisy IT security sector:
“We’re in a busy and vibrant market where providing a value for money, real-time managed security service for as little as £2.00 per user per month is a distinctive offering that no-one else is doing right now. PR will play a key role in making our voice heard – we’re delighted to be working with Six Degrees who have a long and respected track record in IT security public relations.”
Six Degrees Director, Mandy Hassall, added: “The PR programme is already up and running – fortunately we were able to hit the ground running with an expert team which knows this sector very well. We’ve already had some fantastic successes and we’re really looking forward to working with such a dynamic and ambitious bunch of people.”
The account will include campaigns to target key technology and security journalists, raise ScanSafe’s profile as a British success story within the business press, and influence industry analysts.
