"We are extremely pleased to endorse CloudPassage as a cloud technology provider giving added value to its clients, disrupting business models and leveraging cloud infrastructure to be the best of the best in cloud security solutions," said Larry Johnson Cloud Awards organizer…
Proven in hundreds of production cloud deployments at a scale of up to tens-of-thousands of cloud devices, CloudPassage Halo Enterprise addresses the top two inhibitors to cloud adoption — security and compliance. Purpose-built for the cloud, CloudPassage uses big-data analytics to automate security and compliance for large-scale, distributed cloud infrastructure environments, enabling companies to seamlessly adopt the cloud.
"Enterprises are adopting cloud computing at an incredible pace, but security and compliance still represent huge obstacles. Traditional solutions are designed with legacy perimeter models and don’t work for the ephemeral nature of the cloud — placing significant burdens on security and operations teams," said Carson Sweet, CEO of CloudPassage. "We employ a solution that automates and integrates security into dynamic cloud environments, removing the burden for security teams and providing greater visibility for compliance professionals."
Identifying and celebrating excellence in the field of cloud computing, the Cloud Awards program recognizes excellence in cloud computing and encourages entries from across the entire globe — the US, Canada, Australasia and EMEA regions. Entrants can be from organizations of any size, including start-ups.
