Big news! We have acquired Redcoin.
Oct 01, 2021
We're adding new products and services as a result.
We are thrilled to announce that we have recently acquired IT security products and services distributor Redcoin, adding to our existing IT security, services and support offering.
This acquisition is extending our existing knowledge of cybersecurity and is adding a wealth of best-of-breed security products to our roster.
These products include everything from preventative solutions such as firewalls, encrypted hard drives and 2 factor authentication keys to disaster recovery and remote device wiping services, providing scalable solutions for customers of all sizes.
Along with this suite of security products and our expert support, the acquisition means the MD of Redcoin, Alex Blackwell, has also joined our team at SystemLabs bringing with him years of expertise in cybersecurity.
Jamie McDonald, our Director and Head of Infrastructure said “We are thrilled with our acquisition of Redcoin. This strategic move not only gives us access to a range of security tools and vendors which will enable us to further meet our existing client’s cyber-security needs, but also provides access to a new client base whom we can help further assist with their overall technology requirements. I speak for all the team when I say, we are very much looking forward to getting to know our new clients. The icing on the cake for us is having Alex Blackwell join the leadership team as Director of Business Development, with his extensive business experience and personal network both on Island and within the UK this is an incredibly exciting time of growth for SystemLabs.”
Our newest team member, Alex Blackwell who is joining us as Director of Business Development said, “The past 18 months have been a catalyst to the way businesses operate and has changed the IT threat landscape drastically. It is even more relevant today for organisations to have affordable solutions and services to enhance their security posture, while increasing productivity and profitability. The combined skillset offered by both organisations strengthens our proposition across Security, Development and Professional Services, which is a unique proposition to the Islands. We are excited to take this journey with our clients and to support them proactively and efficiently over the years to come.”
The decision to acquire Redcoin has come at a time of growth for us following some recent new appointments of team members and the growing demand of our clients.
