Cyber-security firm plans expansion after opening €1.5m Cork centre

A leading cyber-security firm has unveiled ambitious expansion plans after opening a new €1.5m hi-tech security operations centre in Cork.

Tánaiste and Foreign Affairs Minister Simon Coveney visited Smarttech247’s state-of-the-art facility at its headquarters in Cork yesterday and saw first-hand how the firm’s staff are at the cutting-edge of cyber-security.

He watched them analyse in real-time the emergence of global cyber-security threats and then moving quickly to protect their clients’ networks and data.
