CST have partnered with Symantec for over 18 years.

In 2011 Symantec divested itself of its own Consultancy Department, and at the same time created a scheme for Partners to deliver on their behalf. CST reached MASTER SECURITY status and (amongst many other awards) remained the only UK partner to have achieved this. The Master award required peer reviews, technical qualifications, customer satisfaction surveys and the use of best practice techniques. The Master program has moved on, however CST's professional approach, and delivery quality remains the same.

We continue to be one of the few Partners in the UK that are subcontracted by Symantec themselves, as well delivering Symantec consultancy via resellers, and channel partners.

Symantec Consulting Service options

  • Strategy & Architecture Design. Establish a customer's security objectives, understand the environment, and contrast with the Solution functionality and operational parameters to create high and low level designs.

  • Quick-Start. Rapid deployment and installation on a limited representative sample of systems. This is chosen where the customer plans to complete the full roll out themselves, but wishes to quickly get to grips with the key setup tasks, design and benefit from knowledge transfer.

  • Deployment. Undertaking the full or partial Implementation of the Security Solution design. This option can remove the need for client personnel involvement, although we recommend that key staff are present to ensure product awareness and education.

  • Upgrade. Optimum performance and security protection will at some point require product upgrade. This service ensures existing options and policies are maintained, while introducing new functionality with supporting knowledge transfer.

  • Health-Check. An assessment and analysis to ensure optimum configuration of security solution. Providing suggestions for improvement and best practice adoption. The scope of the service typically includes a review of: version, installation review, sub component validation
