The two firms will join forces to support De Heus’ Security Operations Center, focusing on the scope of Security Information and Event Management (SIEM). Leveraging FPT's prowess in technology and high-quality workforce, this movement will bolster De Heus’ capabilities in terms of system monitoring, security breach detection, and defense measures to effectively mitigate cyber risk and safeguard its information system and security data on a global scale.
The partnership marks a significant milestone for De Heus' digital transformation strategy amid rising cyberattack concerns in the manufacturing and agriculture industries. Both parties expect this to set a solid foundation for future collaborations in other areas like artificial intelligence, machine learning, big data, and more to further advance De Heus' and the agriculture industry's growth.
Tran Van Dung, Chief Executive Officer of FPT Software Europe, said: “While all businesses want to scale their digital transformation initiatives quickly, doing so securely is equally imperative in the face of cyber threats. Leveraging our extensive expertise and demonstrated success in deploying SIEM projects for multinational corporations globally, we stand ready to optimize De Heus' security operations.”
Rick van der Linden, Chief Operating Officer of De Heus Viet Nam, shared: “Through this partnership, FPT and De Heus are committing to leveraging our collective expertise and resources to develop robust security frameworks that will withstand the test of time. Together, we will explore innovative solutions and best practices to enhance cybersecurity measures and protect against emerging threats.”
The signing ceremony was attended by the Netherlands Minister of Infrastructure and Water Management, Mark Harbers; Minister of Agriculture, Nature, and Food Quality, Christianne van der Wal; Chair of the Confederation of Netherlands Industry and Employers, Ingrid Thijssen; and over 140 large enterprises from the Netherlands in pivotal fields of high-tech manufacturing, sustainable agriculture and food production, renewable energy, logistics, and climate adaptation and water.
