WASHINGTON (PRWEB) October 09, 2019
iboss, the leader in cloud security, and intelligence-led security company FireEye, announce a partnership to provide the world’s most advanced cloud-based threat protection. The two leading cybersecurity companies today unveil iboss + FireEye Cloud Network Security, which is designed to deliver the best available defense against an evolving threat landscape. FireEye industry-leading threat intelligence is now available through iboss’ award-winning cloud platform to provide organizations secure connectivity and advanced threat protection regardless of user location or device.
As the traditional network perimeter erodes due to increasingly mobile workforces and the use of essential cloud applications such as Google Docs and Microsoft Office 365, institutions are susceptible to sophisticated and damaging attacks. In order to protect networks, assets, data and users from known and unknown threats in this new environment, organizations need a multi-vector defense that’s built for the mobile, cloud-first world.
The brand-new security capability is built on proprietary FireEye detection engines and industry-leading threat intelligence earned from the frontlines of the world’s biggest breaches, integrated with iboss’ natively built cloud security platform. It is available to all customers and provides advanced threat protection and data breach prevention anywhere in the world.
“We are in the middle of a cloud transformation,” says iboss CEO, Paul Martini. “Corporate data is increasingly being hosted in third party clouds and cloud apps are becoming the norm. With corporate users and devices accessing this data from remote locations, the need to transition security to the cloud has become critical. This partnership combines the power of FireEye and iboss’s threat defense technology delivered through the iboss Secure Cloud Gateway platform, resulting in unmatched protection across any device, anywhere via the cloud.”
The joint solution includes all features and capabilities of iboss cloud and FireEye Network Security, delivered seamlessly in the cloud to any device. Deployed across over 100 data centers globally and offered as a subscription service, customers do not need to manage appliances or virtual machines and can instead focus on identifying and mitigating threats.
