Kaspersky, the global cybersecurity and digital privacy company has appointed Technocity as its exclusive B2C distributor in Sri Lanka, and as the second B2C distributor in the Maldives.
The partnership, officiated in a special event at Kingsbury Hotel in Colombo, Sri Lanka recently, is expected to enable Kaspersky to expand and reinforce its mark in the consumer market in both countries, where consumers are increasingly seeking solutions to protect their sensitive data and digital assets.
