Digital media services and application solutions provider, DMX Technologies Group says its wholly-owned subsidiary, Packet Systems (Malaysia) has been chosen by a major consumer and business bank in Malaysia to provide a multi-tiered network and security management solution for its six-storey data centre in Putra Jaya.

The US$2.5 million ($3.5 million) contract awarded to Packet Systems is to design, build and deploy a high-performance network infrastructure that creates a responsive and secured environment for deploying existing multi-vendor services and applications over a single network in one of the most demanding business environments.

As the base of bank’s entire backroom functions, the business critical data centre is at the heart of the bank’s day-to-day operations, says DMX Technologies. To ensure business continuity at all times, the company says there is a need for a highly resilient, secured, scalable and sustainable network infrastructure.

DMX Technologies’ multi-location network architecture conserves the bandwidth of the bank’s headquarters for corporate use while the multi-tiered security management application guards against the spread of viruses, malicious attacks, and security vulnerabilities at the source.
