Moscow- based global IT solutions and service provider, Softline, is looking to sell its cloud security services to customers in Myanmar’s emerging financial sector, one of the company’s executives told an audience at its Yangon product launch.
Softline will be teaming up with long-time partners US software giant Microsoft to provide ICT and cloud solutions to local enterprises, particularly banks who need security upgrades to their own cloud infrastructure which is vital for e-commerce services.
“We will work together with Microsoft to provide cloud service to Myanmar users especially in the banking sector and we are already talking with local banks,” said Ilya Anzhiganov, managing director emerging markets Southeast Asia of Softline.
Softline, which also works in licenced software distribution, will be promoting Microsoft software among businesses to limit the use of illegal ‘cracked’ versions of the software, which can compromise their cyber security, the company said.
Softline International Myanmar was awarded an ICT service license from Myanmar Investment Commission in November 2016 and the company launched its operation in January this year.
“We don’t have experience yet in the Myanmar market because we’ve just began in this emerging market but we are going to focus on cost effectiveness and quality service for users,” said Anzhiganov.
Softline operates across 80 cities in 30 countries, particularly those in emerging markets and mainly focuses on public and private cloud solutions, end-to-end technology solutions, software licensing and hardware products.
