Upgrade to RSA NetWitness Version 11 With RSA Professional Services:
There are numerous reasons why organizations are upgrading to RSA NetWitness Suite Version 11. The majority are interested in the highly intuitive & redesigned user interface, the new product capabilities, the launch of “Respond” and many other usability & serviceability enhancements that come with version 11. Regardless of what your reason is for upgrading, our RSA NetWitness Professional Services team will ensure you get through your upgrade thoughtfully and successfully while minimizing the amount of time you need to take away from your daily responsibilities.
One of the biggest challenges we face in the security industry today is a lack of resources. If your organization doesn’t have the skillset needed to perform the upgrade independently or if your employees can’t take the time out of their daily obligations to perform the upgrade, I strongly encourage you to engage with RSA Professional Services as your trusted adviser to perform the upgrade for you.
At RSA, we have a global Professional Services team that is certified on the RSA NetWitness product and fully trained on the upgrade to RSA NetWitness v11. Our battle tested team will ensure you have a successful upgrade and will minimize the amount of time it takes to complete the upgrade to RSA NetWitness 11.
Our Professional Services team has several flexible offerings that can be leveraged for upgrading your environment. From smaller environments to very large and complex global enterprise deployments, we have offerings that will meet your business requirements as well as your preferred procurement method.
