Global cybersecurity company FirstWave Cloud Technology (FCT) has announced its contract extensions and expansion with Telstra (TLS).

The contract has been extended for another two years with an option to extend for an additional two years, and the scope of the next extension will include additional cybersecurity services through FirstWave’s CyberCision platform.

“We are pleased to deepen our longstanding relationship with Telstra, our largest customer,” FirstWave CEO Danny Maher said.
