HarrierZeuros Launches Range of Managed Services

New services to provide regular revenue stream


HarrierZeuros, a division of Harrier Group plc (AIM: HRR), yesterday announced
the launch of a range of standardised secure managed services. The company
currently provides a number of bespoke managed service solutions to
organisations throughout the UK.


Working together with clients from initial development to implementation and
enhanced support, HarrierZeuros's Managed Services will provide organisations
with the reassurance that its systems are fully secure. This enables valuable
resources to be focused on the client's core business rather than its network
and security infrastructure.


Services available include:


  * Remote Diagnostics and Support

  * Alerts, Monitoring and Secure Web Portal

  * Change Control, Notification, Advisory and Reporting Services

  * Data Protection Services

  * Enterprise wide Secure Managed Services


HarrierZeuros recognises that each company has individual requirements and
therefore also continues to provide bespoke secure Managed Services solutions.
These vary from unique remote management solutions from one of HarrierZeuros's
offices to a full enterprise managed service comprising business risk analysis
and regular penetration testing.


Recognising that the decision-making process often falls to the Board or
Financial departments, HarrierZeuros provides maximum flexibility by providing
monthly, quarterly or annual billing to clients of these services. This also
provides Harrier's management with more visibility of the Group's forward
order book.


        David Cheesman, CEO of HarrierZeuros commented, 'We have developed our
        services as a response to recognising several problems that our
        clients face, one of which is the skills gap. Recruiting, training and
        retaining a team of security professionals is very expensive, managed
        services however can alleviate the pressures and assist in managing
        the ever increasing IT budget.'


Further details on the services are available from the company or on the
website. www.harrierzeuros.co.uk or the corporate website at www.harrier.com
