This partnership enables us to do just that, whilst also unlocking new opportunities for growth and success. Having confidence in the integrity and privacy of our databases and proprietary systems, ensured by this new partnership, is a valuable asset for Lions Cricket.”

As the Acronis #TeamUp Delivery Partner, MRB Secure plays a pivotal role in collaborating directly with the Prides IT Operations Team stationed at the DP World Wanderers Stadiums dedicated IT Operations Centre. The partnership delivers cutting-edge security solutions, ensuring robust data protection to enhance the overall operational efficiency of not only the Union, but the stadium itself. “Joining the Acronis #TeamUp program perfectly aligns with our commitment to deliver top-tier managed services and application support,” said Ian Nettleton, Managing Director at MRB Secure. “Together, we are reshaping the landscape of sports and data management by using an innovative and proactive approach to cybersecurity. MRB Secure stands as the Lions’ frontline defence against cyber threats, ensuring their data remains secure.”
