Today's announcements include:
- Approval of Unisys Stealth from the U.S. National Security
Agency's (NSA) Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC) program,
opening the door to U.S. federal agencies to purchase Unisys
Stealth within composite solutions that protect classified systems
and data. Unisys Stealth was concurrently certified by the National

"The security solutions that Unisys brings to market are helping
commercial and governmental enterprises around the world protect
their data and systems from both cyber and physical attacks," said
Inder M. Singh, chief strategy and

segment."
Product Leadership, Key Deployment Agreements
Unisys
Stealth uses identity-based, micro-segmentation techniques and
encryption to create segments within an organization's IT
environment where only authorized users can access information,
while those without authorization cannot even see that these
endpoints exist. If an unauthorized user gets into the
organization, Stealth cryptographically contains their access to a
single segment of the network, with no access to move laterally to
other parts of the organization.
Unisys has announced agreements this year for Stealth to be
available for enterprise use on the world's two largest cloud
computing platforms as measured by market share – making it the
only such solution to be available on both platforms:
- Stealth for Azure – Unisys announced the availability of Unisys
Stealth(cloud) for Microsoft Azure to seamlessly deliver
award-winning Stealth micro-segmentation security from clients'
enterprises to Azure, thus enabling a highly-secure, hybrid cloud
environment. See release here.
- Stealth for AWS – Unisys announced it is providing enterprises
with the award-winning Unisys Stealth micro-segmentation security
solution on the Amazon Web Services Cloud, available for clients to
immediately acquire and deploy from the AWS Marketplace. See
