Payment technology firm Yedpay has partnered with cybersecurity solutions provider Fortinet to bolster its security and prevent cyber-attacks.

The collaboration is part of Yedpay’s growth strategy as it moves to cloud environment.

Under the partnership, Yedpay deployed end-to-end Fortinet Security Fabric platform. The platform strengthens security by combining various security solutions across the network.

Overall, the payment technology firm deployed the FortiGate Next-Generation Firewall, the FortiWeb Web Application Firewall (WAF) and the FortiSIEM offerings.

The collaboration is also expected to enable Yedpay to expand its product offerings.

Yedpay’s co-founder and chief information security officer Alva Wong said: “We deployed Fortinet Network Firewalls five years ago to protect our on-premise network infrastructure. Fortinet was the clear choice to help us move our workloads to a public cloud environment with their Fortinet Security Fabric offerings.

“Every component of the Fortinet Security Fabric is fully integrated into the entire network and every part of the security architecture is visible via a single console that is user-friendly and easy to operate. With Fortinet, a secure cloud migration that would normally take a year took us only a month.”

Yedpay was established in Hong Kong in 2014. The company offers an e-commerce payment platform to small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs).

Fortinet CMO and EVP of products John Maddison said: “In addition to protecting the expanded attack surface, Fortinet’s dynamic cloud security offerings, which are part of the Fortinet Security Fabric, simplifies operations with single-pane-of glass management and doesn’t compromise network performance.”
