Comcast Business today announced that it is supplying Portland-based creative agency, Fiction Tribe, with Comcast Business SecurityEdgeโข, Business Internet and 4G LTE Connection Pro Services, enabling the business to better safeguard its data and keep its employees connected while using a hybrid work model.
Fiction Tribe is an independent digital creative agency with 25 employees and 10 contractors. Unlike typical creative agencies, Fiction Tribe uses machine intelligence technology to analyze seemingly disconnected data points and identify real-time insights and recommendations to its clients. This technology, combined with Fiction Tribeโs digital and creative acumen, offers its clients unmatched deployment times, targeted messaging and actionable analytics. Because of this operational reliance on technology and data, Fiction Tribe counts on its internet and cybersecurity solutions from Comcast Business to help protect client data whenever needed, no matter where employees are working from.
โWith employees across the globe from Portland to Portugal, which is now standard, we need to spend time growing the business instead of worrying about online threats,โ said James Rice, CEO of Fiction Tribe. โAs a small business without an IT department, we rely on Comcast Business. With SecurityEdge, we can help protect employee, guestsโ and contractorsโ devices on the network.โ
A few years ago, cybersecurity solutions were less attainable for small businesses due to high costs and fixed solution designs. With SecurityEdgeโข, businesses have access to an advanced network solution. It works to help block threats like malware, ransomware, phishing and botnet attacks across all connected devices on a businessโ network while simultaneously preventing guests and employees from accessing suspicious websites. Fiction Tribeโs finds this feature an especially important cybersecurity measure to have when working with contractors and remote workers.
โI look forward to viewing the SecurityEdge Activity Summary Report. It tells me all about our network threats, including phishing, malware, and botnets,โ Rice explained. โWe are comforted that it helps protect our employeesโ and customersโ devices.โ
Paired with Comcast Businessโ Internet, SecurityEdgeโข seamlessly runs in the background, helping to protect the networkโs data, and will do so even if a small business does not have a dedicated IT department.
"We want businesses to be empowered to grow. We know there is risk in that, and we want to help businesses have peace of mind," said Alan Goldsmith, vice president of Comcast Businessโ Oregon/SW Washington. "As the distributed workforce continues to expand and push the boundaries of digital collaboration, network support solutions will increasingly help define a business' success. That's why Comcast Business is proud to play a role in supporting Fiction Tribe's security solutions and connectivity operations."
