SAN RAMON, Calif., Feb. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Cyberinc, a pioneer
in isolation-based cybersecurity solutions, today announced an
agreement with Tech Data (Nasdaq: TECD), a leading global
distributor of IT products, services and solutions, to bring the
company's innovative Zero Trust-based Isla Isolation Platform to
Tech Data's network of channel partners in the United States. The agreement with Tech
Data will enable more resellers to offer protection against web,
email and document-based threats to their customers.
With the addition of Cyberinc's Isla remote browser isolation
solution, Tech Data now offers the premiere remote browser
isolation solution on the market. Browser isolation is powerful
technology that prevents breaches before they happen, while
easing the burden on IT and security teams and elevating their
efficiency and productivity. With Cyberinc's recently announced
Isla Isolation Platform version 5, Tech Data is enabling partners
to provide one of the strongest isolation security offerings
available with the most flexible deployment options.
"By partnering with Cyberinc, we're able to further strengthen
our world-class portfolio of security vendors and products and
positively impact our partners' ability to grow," said Alex Ryals, Vice President, Security Solutions,
North America, Tech Data. "Remote
browser isolation provides one of the strongest proactive security
measures to prevent threats from reaching desktop devices,
significantly reducing the attack surface. Cyberinc's offerings can
help our partners looking to provide stronger defenses against the
ever-evolving threat landscape and enable them to simplify and
scale their security."
In the July 31, 2019 Gartner Hype
Cycle for Endpoint Security, 2019 (Gartner subscription required),
it is stated: "Most attacks are delivered via the public internet
either through web browsing or emailed links that trick the user
into visiting malicious sites. Simply removing (or more strongly,
isolating) the browser from the end user's desktop significantly
improves enterprise security posture. Through 2022, organizations
that isolate high-risk internet browsing and access to URLs in
email will experience a 70% reduction in attacks that compromise
end-user systems. Notably, remote browser isolation can thwart
ransomware attacks, blocking their ability to encrypt the users'
files on their devices or in enterprise file shares, neither of
which are directly accessible from the remote browser
session."1
"We believe that Tech Data offers tremendous value to its
channel partners working to protect their business customers with
the strongest cybersecurity products and services available. As
such, Tech Data will be a key partner in broadening the market
adoption of Isla," said Tracy
Hickox, Vice President, North American Channel Sales for
Cyberinc. "As a channel-first provider of isolation-based security,
Cyberinc is dedicated to keeping the world safe from internet-based
cyber-attacks."
