WILLEMSTAD — Forensic Services Caribbean (FSC), domiciled on Curaçao and Aruba, recently signed a partnership agreement with the Dutch company Fox-IT.

With this agreement FSC becomes the local partner of Fox-IT in the Caribbean area. Services from FSC included in this partnership agreement are trainings, forensic IT-research, IT-security advice, DataDiode and DetACT for online-banking.

The trainings consist of Digital Forensic Research, Online Research and Internet research. The DataDiode is a network component that only allows data through in one direction to prevent data leaks. DetACT for online-banking is a product used to detect and combat ‘real-time’ fraud in on-line banking”, said Menno van der Marel, director and founder of Fox-IT. “I’m proud we could conclude such partnership to serve our clients. Employees of Fox-IT are available from the Netherlands. Much work can be done from a distance but work can also be done locally. The service remains guaranteed.”

Larger role IT

“That the awareness of the vulnerability and dependence of IT is increasing is noticed worldwide. As a result the demand for good IT-security products and (research) services increases. It is therefore logic that FSC expands its portfolio with the products and services of Fox-IT. FSC will help make the Caribbean safer and keep the hackers out”, said Benn van Leeuwen, managing partner of FSC.

FSC has fifteen years experience in the Caribbean area and is a leading player in the field of forensic IT-research. The organization will now focus more on specializing in IT-security together with Fox-IT in the Caribbean region.
