When recently appointed Veritas head of global channel, Mark Nutt, was in Sydney, he sat down with <i>ARN</i> and spoke about the company’s strategy since its planned spin off from Symantec’s information management business. He also talked about where Veritas plans to hedge its bets in the market. Nutt joined Symantec in 2011 to lead its EMEA strategy and sales operations team and was previously the general manager for a channel partner, Morse.
Symantec will begin operating as two separate companies from April 1, potentially leaving New Zealand partners in serious limbo with the move now only weeks away.
Sophos CEO Kris Hagerman has overseen a year of super growth, which he claims is due to a new Cloud management platform, a channel first distribution model and the stumbling of the big security players.
As part of its worldwide reorganisation under CEO, Steve Bennett, Symantec will focus on the channel. Senior director Pacific channel sales, Klasie Holtzhausen, sat down with ARN to discuss the company’s new channel strategy in Australia, and the company’s plans heading into 2014.

Symantec has had a busy year. In April, at its partner conference in Senza, China, the vendor outlined a strategy that involved significant changes to its partner program. As yet, we still don’t know all the details of these changes.
