Wipro launches Wipro Shelde Australia to bolster cybersecurity capabilities
Wipro Limited, a leading technology services and consulting company, has announced the launch of Wipro Shelda Australia, a sovereign cyber security offering for the Australian government and critical infrastructure industries to help navigate the cyber threat landscape.
Wipro acquired Ampion in 2021 and by integrating its two companies – Shelde and Revolution IT – into Wipro, it gained access to specialist Australian cyber security, DevOps and engineering capabilities.
The specialist Australian cyber security services provided by Shelde will now be promoted as part of the new offering.
This offering will provide clients with access to local next-generation cyber security services through a panel of national security-vetted consultants, with experience in the PGPA Act, Privacy Act, Safeguard Security Policy Framework, Essential 8, Information Security Handbook and Commonwealth Risk Management Policy.
It will strengthen Wipro’s comprehensive global cyber security and risk services to help clients meet critical business imperatives. In addition, clients can also use their secure Zone 3 facility in Canberra1 to prototype solutions up to SECURE.
All this comes with the support of Wipro’s Melbourne Cyber Defence Centre, which allows customers to quickly expand capacity and launch their security operations according to local data requirements.
“With the integration of Ampion now complete, we are delighted to launch Wipro Shelde Australia, our sovereign cyber security offering that helps clients build and strengthen their cyber resilience. I am confident that this differentiated competency, together with our global leadership and strength in cyber security, will continue to help us deliver transformative customer-focused results for the Australian market,” said Anis Chenchah, CEO – APMEA (Asia Pacific, India , Middle East and Africa) and Member of the Executive Committee of Wipro, Wipro Limited.
Wipro’s Cybersecurity & Risk Services (CRS) enables global enterprises to improve their business resilience through an integrated approach to risk management and has been recognized as a leader by the Everest Group PEAK Matrix® for IT Managed Security Services (MSS) Providers, 2021.
