Guard Street Partners CEO Vince Mazza said that the firm is “thrilled” to be working with GlobeX, noting that businesses need the “best possible security” in protecting its data. An organization's employees, digital assets and reputation are extremely valuable,” Mazza said in a statement. “Everything an organization needs to protect these assets is conveniently available through one company, starting with this new package.” The package will be available in the US through Guard Street.
