Unified communications (UC) security specialist VibeSec is looking to storm the UK channel next year with the help of consultancy Clipsham IT.
Venture capital-backed VibeSec is to release its first product, a UC security and fraud prevention offering called Vigilance, this year. Clipsham has been tasked with finding a handful of trial customers and ascertaining market demand during the remainder of the year.
