" The fact that this RNS has come so shortly after the last announced contract win shows the pace at which the cyber security market and Smarttech247's pipeline is moving. The threat to Businesses, public sector organisations and governments is increasing significantly. It is clear that Smarttech247 has the technical capability, the bandwidth and global reach to begin to take advantage of this growth".
