CloudPassage Receives 2015 Cloud Computing Product of the Year Award

CloudPassage Halo Honored for Innovation in Cloud Security


SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Feb 26, 2016) - CloudPassage announced today that TMC, a global, integrated media company, has named CloudPassage Halo as a 2015 Cloud Computing Product of the Year Award winner. The award, presented by Cloud Computing magazine, honors vendors with the most innovative, useful and beneficial cloud products and services brought to market in the past year.

"We are in the middle of a massive transformation in IT delivery models as enterprises take advantage of the flexibility of dynamic compute environments," said Robert Thomas, CEO of CloudPassage. "Traditional security tools simply don't work in this new world. That's why we purpose-built CloudPassage Halo to deliver a broad range of security and compliance controls in any application hosting environment, at any scale, on-demand. We're honored to be recognized as the cloud computing product of the year."

As enterprises leverage more agile IT delivery models and software development processes to stay nimble and continuously differentiate, security teams have been challenged to keep up. Traditional perimeter-based appliances don't work in new infrastructure models that include flat networks, high degrees of automation, shared resources and fast rates of change. CloudPassage Halo addresses these challenges, providing instant visibility, security at DevOps speed, microsegmentation and automated compliance in any combination of data centers, private cloud or public cloud. Since Halo is delivered as a SaaS (on-demand) service, it takes just minutes to deploy and scales without limits.

"Recognizing leaders in the advancement of cloud computing, TMC is proud to announce CloudPassage Halo as a recipient of the Cloud Computing Product of the Year Award," said Rich Tehrani, CEO of TMC. "CloudPassage is being honored for their achievement in bringing innovation and excellence to the market, while leveraging the latest technology trends." 

CloudPassage Halo will be showcased at RSA Conference 2016 in San Francisco, February 29 - March 3. For an onsite demo of Halo at the show, visit the Moscone Convention Center's North Expo booth #4336 or learn more at https://www.cloudpassage.com/products.
