Microtech-Tel takes business encryption security seriously with Check Point partnership

April 22, 2010 - PRLog -- DENVER, CO – Microtech-Tel, Colorado’s leading business telecommunications provider of voice, data and IT managed services, has achieved Silver Level PureAdvantage Partner status with Check Point, the world’s top technology for total internet security. This partnership enables Microtech-Tel to deliver its business customers worry-free security for data transfer that ensures secure credit card processing, and full compliance with the privacy and reporting issues under both the Heath Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) for healthcare enterprises and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 for publicly traded companies.

Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., headquartered in Israel with U.S. operations based in Redwood, Calif., is the recognized world leader in security software for networks, data and endpoints under a single unified management framework. As a Silver Level PureAdvantage Partner with Check Point, Microtech-Tel personnel have been trained in all aspects of Check Point security software and can provide end users with any combination of resell, catalog sales, integration, installation, training, and technical support for most products.

Check Point provides customers uncompromised protection against all types of threats, reduces security complexity and lowers total cost of ownership. Check Point first pioneered the industry with FireWall-1 and its patented Stateful Inspection technology.

Microtech-Tel, with more than 2,000 business telecommunications customers throughout Colorado, went the extra mile to partner with Check Point because of its sterling reputation for network security solutions. While this is important for all businesses transferring sensitive and proprietary information on networks, it is particularly critical for those businesses processing credit cards, and those which fall under the guidelines of HIPPA and Sarbanes-Oxley.

Credit card processing on the internet needs heightened security, of course, so customers can have the confidence that their personal financial and identity information won’t be compromised, and Microtech-Tel with Check Point delivers. Moreover, healthcare organizations which are required to follow HIPPA privacy regulations, and public companies with reporting requirements under Sarbanes-Oxley, can rest assured that the Check Point technology from Microtech-Tel is secure and fully compliant with these federal laws.
