Cloud security solution goes gold

In its mission to secure the agility and flexibility of cloud computing environments, WinMagic (www.winmagic.com) has become a gold partner on the Microsoft Azure cloud computing infrastructure.
 
WinMagic’s SecureDoc CloudVM leverages all the strengths built into its SecureDoc endpoint encryption software to provide a flexible and high-performing data security solution that protects virtualized and public, private and hybrid cloud workloads and data.  SecureDoc CloudVM for Microsoft Azure will offer BringYourOwnLicense (BYOL) and subscription models from the marketplace, with several features that apply intelligence to encryption, speed time to market, increase efficiency and reduce risk, such as hourly subscriptions.
 
“The Microsoft Azure Marketplace offers an immense distribution channel for WinMagic, ensuring enterprises have greater control and certainty over their data security with an intelligent enterprise-controlled, Cloud agnostic key management and encryption solution,” says James LaPalme, VP of Cloud Solutions, WinMagic.  “By combining WinMagic’s data security solution with the agility and elasticity of Azure public cloud services, enterprises can focus on driving business value rather than trying to manage multiple security solutions.”
 
“With more and more Canadian businesses moving to the cloud, it’s critical they have proper security measures in place to allow them to transform their business and migrate to the cloud with confidence,” said Mary-Ellen Anderson, Vice President, Developer and Platform Group, Microsoft Canada.  “Collaborating with companies like WinMagic creates a truly powerful solution for our mutual customers by providing them with greater control of encryption and key management, as well as unmatched global support.”
