Tango/04 Opens U.S. Office in Peterborough, New Hampshire

May 29, 2007 Alex Woodie

Tango/04 Computing Group, the Spanish developer of systems management software for System i and other platforms, yesterday announced it has opened its new U.S. office in Peterborough, New Hampshire. The company has high hopes that the move will further boost its fortunes in North America.

Tango/04 first opened an office in Peterborough in late 2005 when its partnership with i5/OS change management software vendor SoftLanding Systems ended. According to the company, 2006 was a turning point for Tango/04, and the goings-on in Peterborough had a lot to do with it.

The company laid several milestones last year, including passing the 1,000-customer mark for its flagship VISUAL Message Center product, growing company revenues by 88 percent, and boosting profits from its U.S. operations by 45 percent. By the end of 2006, Tango/04 had outgrown its old office and was looking to find bigger and better digs with which to lay down roots into American soil.

“We are very excited about our successful achievements during 2006,” said Raúl Cristián Aguirre, CEO and president of Tango/04. “When we opened our own office in the U.S. our goal was to offer a better service to our already existing U.S. customers and to be able to establish a direct presence in a market with great opportunities for our unique, real-time monitoring solutions. The results we obtained surpassed all our expectations.”

CYBER-ATTACKS ON THE RISE. PROTECT WITH THE TRIPLE PLAY.

COVID-19 has not only caused a global pandemic, but has sparked a “cyber pandemic” as well.

“Cybersecurity experts predict that in 2021, there will be a cyber-attack incident every 11 seconds. This is nearly twice what it was in 2019 (every 19 seconds), and four times the rate five years ago (every 40 seconds in 2016). It is expected that cybercrime will cost the global economy $6.1 trillion annually, making it the third-largest economy in the world, right behind those of the United States and China.”¹

Protecting an organization’s data is not a single-faceted approach, and companies need to do everything they can to both proactively prevent an attempted attack and reactively respond to a successful attack.

UCG Technologies’ VAULT400 subscription defends IBM i and Intel systems against cyber-attacks through comprehensive protection with the Triple Play Protection – Cloud Backup, DRaaS, & Enterprise Cybersecurity Training.

Cyber-attacks become more sophisticated every day. The dramatic rise of the remote workforce has accelerated this trend as cyber criminals aggressively target company employees with online social engineering attacks. It is crucial that employees have proper training on what NOT to click on. Cyber threats and social engineering are constantly evolving and UCG’s Enterprise Cybersecurity Training (powered by KnowBe4) is designed to educate employees on the current cutting-edge cyber-attacks and how to reduce and eliminate them.

A company is only as strong as its weakest link and prevention is just part of the story. Organizations need to have a quick response and actionable plan to implement should their data become compromised. This is the role of cloud backup and disaster-recovery-as-a-service (DRaaS).

Data is a company’s most valuable asset. UCG’s VAULT400 Cloud Backup provides 256-bit encrypted backups to two (2) remote locations for safe retrieval should a cyber-attack occur. This is a necessary component of any protection strategy. Whether a single click on a malicious link brings down the Windows environment or an infected SQL server feeds the IBM i, once the data is compromised, there is no going back unless you have your data readily available.

Recovery is not a trivial task, especially when you factor in the time sensitive nature of restoring from an active attack. This leads to the third play of the Triple Play Protection – DRaaS. Companies have myriad concerns once an attack is realized and a managed service disaster recovery allows employees to keep focus on running the business in a crisis state.

The combination of training employees with secure backup and disaster recovery offers companies the best chance at avoiding financial disruption in an age of stronger, more frequent cyber-attacks.
