Joe Boyle, Salt CEO said: “Salt’s isolated secure communications system is a key tool when you have a major outage or are under attack. In the UK in the past six months we have seen global brands like M&S, Co-op and JLR being targeted.  These attacks have hit home with the general public and impacted hundreds of thousands of people within these organisations and throughout their supply chain. Organisations are now feeling the urgency to have a mature incident work flow in place and Salt’s safe haven comms network allows a company to keep communicating when its other systems are not. This results in coherent dissemination of information across key groups and faster decision making in the critical first hours of an unfolding crisis.”
