MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 04, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- At the RSA Conference 2019 in San Francisco, HyTrust, the leader in workload security for multi-cloud infrastructure, has been awarded the “Publisher’s Choice” InfoSec Award in the Cloud Security category. This is the seventh year of the prestigious InfoSec Awards from Cyber Defense Magazine and second win for HyTrust (“Hot Company” Cloud Security 2018).
As the data center evolves and data fluidity increases, it becomes more challenging to find the security solution that strikes the right balance between security, functionality, flexibility and compliance. HyTrust’s approach to securing the workload through policy is unique in that it delivers the sweet spot of protecting the data, while making it accessible and usable, all while meeting regulatory compliance guidelines and securing customer privacy. HyTrust’s solutions – which have been widely deployed by Global 2000 companies and top government agencies, with strong market presence in financial services, healthcare, and government verticals – automate security controls for software-defined computing, networking and storage workloads, allowing customers to achieve the highest levels of visibility, granular policy control and data protection.
“To win an InfoSec award for the second year in a row, especially in the Cloud Security category which we felt was particularly competitive, is a wonderful achievement for our company and everyone behind the solutions we bring to market,” said Eric Chiu, founder and president of HyTrust. “This recognition is great validation in HyTrust’s unified security approach.”
“While nation state exploitation, Cybercrime, Hacktivism, Cyberespionage, Ransomware and malware exploits are all on the rise, HyTrust has won the Publisher’s Choice InfoSec Award in the Cloud Security category after we reviewed nearly 3,000 infosec companies, globally,” said Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher, Cyber Defense Magazine. “HyTrust is an innovator on a mission to help stop breaches and get one step ahead of these threats, proactively.”
