(the "Company") (CSE:VAI), is pleased to announce the closing of four new clients in January, 2017. The new contracts will immediately deliver over US$350,000 in initial revenue with potential for additional business to be driven through ongoing professional and managed services.
As a clear indication of the growing importance of robust IT and cybersecurity infrastructure now required by businesses across multiple industries, the new VirtualArmour clients come from the diverse fields of medicine, energy and construction. Notably, the Company also secured the contracts from within, what are considered, highly competitive markets including Silicon Valley, CA and Houston, TX.
January also saw significant industry exposure with the US, Canadian and UK governments clearly highlight their growing concerns over the threats to businesses and national security posed by weak and/or out-dated cybersecurity practices.
