Mumbai,  April 5, 2018:  Leading  Indian Managed Hosting and Cloud T solution provider in India,  Netmagic,  has joined McAfee to offer Malware Protection services as part of its Managed Security Services in India. The services will offer next generation server security to customers via Netmagic’s cloud services on pay per use basis.
 Netmagic aims to provide customized Security Services Offerings on a hosted model. This enables customers the monitoring of malicious activity across servers and hosts and provide a proactive protection from threat actors – both opportunistic and targeted.
 Netmagic has built its Server Host Protection service on McAfee’s server security and endpoint security solution. Server Host Protection service is a SAAS based offering powered by McAfee to provide protection from known, near-zero day, and zero-day attacks. An antivirus, anti-malware and intrusion prevention, Secure Host stops unnecessary usage/deployment of software on your servers. 
“Given the scale of breaches seen in 2017 coupled with the maturing threat horizon, organizations want to turn to a managed security services model to improve their IT security efficiency,” said Sharad Sanghi, Managing Director & CEO of Netmagic.  “Collaborating with McAfee will help us add to our existing portfolio of managed security services and deliver protection from advanced malware such as ransom-ware in a reliable, expert and organized manner.”
Added Anand Ramamoorthy, Managing Director, South Asia at McAfee: “The managed security-services industry is facing a watershed moment, as technological disruption is changing the future of workplaces making the traditional hardware-based security paradigm obsolete. Our association with Netmagic will empower organizations to leave day-to-day operations to experienced infrastructure teams, enabling them to focus on strategic IT initiatives”. He added, “At McAfee, we recognize the power of collaboration and are keen to be a catalyst in the Managed Security Services market.”
