This project positions Ithmaar Bank as the first bank in the Kingdom of Bahrain to deploy the service to ensure around-the-clock network resiliency even during network maintenance activities or any other causes that might result in network interruptions.
Batelco’s backup solution is an integrated, secure and a fully-managed solution providing redundancy and automatic traffic fail-over, which allows Ithmaar Bank to mitigate any risk of data loss, ultimately protecting the bank’s online services, ATM connections, revenues and reputation.
