Overland-Tandberg Focuses on Cybersecurity and Edge Computing

Overland-Tandberg announced a strategic global realignment of its business. It will focus on its proprietary RDX technology, capitalizing on emerging growth markets such as cybersecurity and edge computing, while restructuring its operations to enhance efficiency and market focus.

With the global cybersecurity market projected to reach $298.5 billion by 2028 and cloud-edge computing currently at $21.41 billion, RDX technology is positioned to address the evolving needs of businesses in these rapidly expanding markets. As part of this repositioning and focus, the company is streamlining operations and shifting away from the tape archive business.

“We believe the most strategic path forward is to focus on our RDX technology, which provides scalable, high-performance, and secure storage solutions,” said Eric Kelly, CEO, Overland-Tandberg. “This decision allows us to build on our strengths and expand our leadership in the cybersecurity, data protection and edge computing sectors.”

Global Transformation through Strategic Restructuring
As part of this realignment, the company has implemented restructuring plans for its subsidiaries, including but not limited to Tandberg Data GmbH and Overland Storage, Inc.  These changes will streamline global operations and enhance focus on the company’s core strengths in RDX technology, enabling the firm to better serve its global customer base while maintaining innovation at the forefront.

Tina Brown, COO and MD of Tandberg Data, emphasized the positive outlook: “This restructuring represents a focused effort to realign our resources and capitalize on growth areas like cybersecurity and data protection. By concentrating on these sectors, which are our core strengths, Overland-Tandberg is well-positioned to lead in providing future-ready data protection solutions to a global market.”
