Bitglass, the Total Data Protection company, announced today that it has joined the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA), a not-for-profit organization with a mission to promote the use of best practices for providing security assurance within cloud computing. Bitglass is a Cloud Access Security Broker that delivers total data protection as enterprise data moves beyond the firewall — in the cloud, on mobile devices and anywhere on the Internet.

The service enables some of the world’s most security-conscious and regulated organizations to adopt public cloud apps by closing security and compliance gaps. The SaaS-based solution deploys in minutes and works without installing software agents on employee devices and without changing the user experience…

"Security remains the biggest inhibitor to cloud adoption. Bitglass is delighted to work with the Cloud Security Alliance in promoting best practices to enhance employee mobility and productivity, while securing sensitive corporate data," said Nat Kausik, CEO of Bitglass
"As the adoption of cloud applications and BYOD continues, companies must be able to protect data that is now traveling outside of their corporate firewall.

Protecting the data itself, not the device is now of paramount importance. We are proud to welcome Bitglass to the CSA family, as they are the leader in total data protection outside of the firewall and look forward to working closely with them." – Jim Reavis, CEO, Cloud Security Alliance

Bitglass is sponsoring the CSA Summit 2015: Enterprise Cloud Adoption and Security Lessons Learned, which is being held on Monday, April 20, 2015, at 9:00 a.m. PST in Moscone Center West, San Francisco.
