21Vianet has more than 15 years' experience in internet infrastructure services, with its core businesses covering data center management, managed network service, content distributed network service and cloud computing. The Company worked with Microsoft to successfully launch Office 365 services this April, delivering for the first time the familiar Office productivity suite, now equipped with more advanced communication and collaboration tools, as a local cloud service to business and government customers throughout China.  The Company will leverage its cloud operation and service excellence to provide one-stop public cloud services to customers in China.

Wing-Dar Ker, President of MS Cloud Business Unit at 21Vianet, stated, "Information security on mobile devices is a critical business requirement for Office 365 cloud customers.  21Vianet is pleased to deliver the industry's leading mobility security solution from GigaTrust to Office 365 customers in China."
