Adept4 and Sesame Work Together To Prevent Financial Crime

IT Management specialist, Adept4, has been working with Sesame Bankhall Group, the UK’s leading supplier of support services to independent financial advisors, to help IFA businesses throughout the UK to prevent financial crime.

Adept4 approached Sesame, part of the Sesame Bankhall Group, in February with a view to promoting its Secure Hard Disk Encryption service to the company’s network of IFA members. Data security is a growing threat to businesses due to increased work mobility and reliance on remote devices and both Sesame and Adept4 are keen to reduce any potential risk.

Hard Disk Encryption helps businesses to protect data and ensures information is safe at all times. Encryption covers computers and laptops, network files, removal media and USB storage devices, covering all layers of potential risks and is backed up by Adept4’s 24/7 support.

In addition to this, Adept4 offer other security offerings as an all round Managed Service, to assist users with choosing correct product or installation and ongoing support. This ensures businesses meet the compliance guidelines laid down by the FSA.

Peter Birkett, CEO at Adept4, commented: “Our Hard Disc Encryption solution means that businesses do not have the extra worry their confidential data is not protected. With our Managed Services, the data is kept secure from potential risks. Having the support from Sesame reinforces the quality service Adept4 provide and we hope to help other companies protect their business data and information.”

David Rimmer at Sesame added: “We were impressed with Adept4’s range of secure solutions and the services that they could offer our members and so agreed to promote their service to our members through our magazines and direct mail marketing. It’s so important to make businesses across the UK aware of the threats they face in terms of financial crime and we’re delighted that the campaign has been such a success so far.”
