Tech Mahindra, Mahindra Satyam and Kaspersky Lab have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for broad range collaboration in Information Security solutions. According to the MOU, Tech Mahindra, Kaspersky Lab and Mahindra Satyam have agreed to leverage their strengths in security products and services to develop joint security solutions in the areas of Mobility and Endpoint Security, and Cloud Security Services. These solutions will aim to address the ever-increasing security threats to consumers and corporates in India and Asia Pacific.

Mobile Security solutions’ focus will be to secure the growing number of smartphone users, who access the internet on the move for official and personal purposes. Security analysts have identified mobile malware as one of the key emerging sources of security threats, due to the increasing acceptability and penetration of such devices into the corporate environment.

Kaspersky Lab will also work with Tech Mahindra to create a range of managed security services offerings aimed at the SMB sector in the sub-continent and beyond. These services, built using Kaspersky Lab's proven endpoint security products and Mahindra's expertise in service delivery, will provide small businesses with access to enterprise-class security at low transaction costs.
