Black Hat USA 2016: Armor Debuts ‘Armor Anywhere’ to Protect Data Across Public, Private and Hybrid Clouds, Internal Infrastructures

RICHARDSON, Texas & LAS VEGAS--()--As growing businesses increasingly rely on public, private and hybrid cloud platforms in addition to internal infrastructures, Armor is launching Armor Anywhere to keep sensitive data safe. With an official debut at Black Hat USA 2016 in Las Vegas from July 30 to Aug. 4, Armor Anywhere provides consistent, affordable and user-friendly managed security, with comprehensive visibility and controls to ensure the protection of workloads, assets and applications. Compatible with popular cloud platforms, including AWS© and Azure©, Armor Anywhere is the only offering that actively secures data 24/7 while providing visibility across a multi-cloud infrastructure.

“The modern threat landscape presents sizeable challenges for companies managing sensitive data, particularly those facing strict compliance requirements,” said Chris Drake, founder and CEO, Armor. “Armor Anywhere is a battle-tested security solution backed by threat expertise that complements our customers’ unique needs. It simplifies security, so they can focus on growth and driving revenue, not defending against sophisticated cyberattacks. We deploy an effective and scalable approach so customers can leverage our security knowledge and talent at a fraction of the cost of doing it themselves.”

Armor Anywhere allows customers to instantly monitor and defend operating systems with market-leading security technology and controls, backed by an elite security operations center (SOC). Armor experts utilize the latest threat intelligence, as well as a proprietary, highly automated agent to deliver around-the-clock security, patch monitoring, log and event management, malware protection, file integrity monitoring and external vulnerability scans.

The solution is designed to meet PCI and HIPAA compliance standards, and be audit-ready in defense of ePHI, PII and payment data. With Armor Anywhere, organizations can also enjoy a shared approach to both risk and security responsibility to optimize IT spend and cloud accessibility.

Customers such as Innovum Technologies, a provider of regulatory and compliance software for the gaming industry, are already benefiting from Armor Anywhere.

“In our industry, clients require that their data is protected and secure – several layers deep, in fact,” said Mark West, president and CEO, Innovum Technologies. “With Armor Anywhere, we have the active monitoring and notifications we need to tell our clients a credible story about how we’re protecting their data at every step.”

Armor experts will be at Black Hat booth No. 1448 demonstrating the flexibility and capabilities of Armor Anywhere. Follow Armor at Black Hat USA 2016 via Twitter at @Armor.
