Here’s the translation to American English:

DXC Technology and Akamai Technologies have announced a strategic alliance aimed at enhancing innovation in cybersecurity, Zero Trust, and cloud solutions in Spain. This collaboration seeks to equip businesses with resilient tools to face advanced attacks and adapt to an ever-changing regulatory framework, thus facilitating operations in a complex digital environment.

Paul Joseph, Executive Vice President of Global Sales and Services at Akamai, emphasized the importance of this partnership, highlighting that both companies are committed to providing solutions that protect the critical infrastructure of organizations.

The alliance will integrate technologies such as micro-segmentation through Akamai Guardicore Segmentation, designed to prevent lateral movement of attackers within networks. Additionally, Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) will be implemented to ensure rigorous authentication of users and devices. API security and cloud data protection will also be provided, along with AI-based threat analysis, enabling proactive detection and response to potential cyberattacks.

With the signing of the agreement, DXC has achieved certification as a Guardicore Certified Service Provider (GCSP) in micro-segmentation, strengthening its technical capabilities and commitment to integrating high-caliber security solutions. This recognition will further enhance the alliance with Akamai.

The initial results of this collaboration are already evident in Spain, where the benefits of their combined expertise are being observed. Both companies foresee significant opportunities to expand their influence in the cybersecurity market, offering solutions tailored to various sectors.

Mikel Salazar Peña, Director of Cybersecurity at DXC in Spain and Portugal, noted that cyber threats have reached unprecedented levels of sophistication, requiring organizations to adopt a proactive approach to their defense. Together, they aim to provide robust security solutions in a context filled with increasing risks.

The collaboration also responds to a more demanding regulatory environment, supporting organizations in complying with cybersecurity regulations such as DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act) and NIS2 (Network and Information Security Directive 2). This will enable businesses to more effectively protect their critical data and operations, ensuring business continuity in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.

DXC Technology positions itself as a global leader in cybersecurity, protecting more than 450 million digital identities and providing continuous coverage through multiple Security Operations Centers (SOCs) around the world. With over 3,500 security experts, the company advises its clients on how to anticipate new cyber threats through customized solutions and a firm commitment to the Zero Trust model.
