As companies look to modernize, they seek to engage partners with advanced cybersecurity skills to migrate, optimize and manage their existing workloads to the cloud. HCL Technologies offers holistic solutions integrated with Microsoft products that encompass the full breadth of security, compliance and identity management. The combination of HCL Technologies’ cybersecurity fusion platform solutions and deep domain knowledge, along with Microsoft’s range of security products, like Azure Sentinel and Microsoft 365 E5, covering identity and access, information protection, hybrid cloud infrastructure security, IT (Information Technology) and OT (Operational Technology) security and cloud app security, gives organizations the building blocks to better defend against a dynamic cybersecurity environment.
