archTIS attracts Commonwealth Ombudsman as Kojensi security platform client

archTIS Ltd (ASX:AR9) has brought on the Commonwealth Ombudsman as a Kojensi client to facilitate a more secure way of conducting investigations and collaboration between agencies where security is a priority.

The Commonwealth Ombudsman has purchased an initial 50 Kojensi licences in order to conduct investigations with agencies needing to share and collaborate on information classified up to PROTECTED.

This agreement includes an initial 12-month contract worth a minimum of $35,454 in annual recurring revenue with two one-year extensions as well as the ability for licences to grow on a monthly basis.

Use of the Kojensi Platform as a PROTECTED service will save the Commonwealth Ombudsman a substantial cost in implementing an independent PROTECTED environment to meet its needs for hosting classified information.

It would otherwise have to establish its own PROTECTED infrastructure at great expense.

“Attractive alternative”[hhmc]

Lai said: “It is clear that those agencies that take security and privacy seriously understand the competitive advantage and cost effectRead More – Source
