KONTICH —27 November 2024 — ACEN, a leading provider of innovative cybersecurity solutions today announced a new partnership with Illumio, the breach containment leader. The partnership will see ACEN offer the Illumio Zero Trust Segmentation (ZTS) Platform, empowering organizations to enhance operational resilience and stop cyberattacks from turning into cyber disasters.
Despite record spending on cybersecurity, the world continues to experience more frequent and devastating breaches. The hyperconnectivity that comes with digital transformation and hybrid and multi-cloud environments makes organizations increasingly vulnerable. Ransomware and other attacks continue to break through perimeter defenses and move laterally to access critical assets and infrastructure.
Illumio ZTS is the most comprehensive Zero Trust solution for ransomware and breach containment. By visualizing traffic flows and automatically setting segmentation policies, Illumio ZTS reduces unnecessary lateral movement across the multi-cloud and hybrid infrastructure, protecting critical resources and preventing the spread of cyberattacks.
“We are excited to partner with Illumio to bring their cutting-edge Zero Trust Segmentation technology to our clients,” says Toon Vandendriessche, cybersecurity advisor of ACEN. “This collaboration aligns perfectly with our mission to provide innovative cybersecurity solutions that protect our clients’ critical assets and ensure business continuity. By integrating Illumio’s ZTS Platform, we can offer a robust defense against the evolving threat landscape, helping organizations across various industries achieve a higher level of security and resilience.”
Recently named a leader in The Forrester Wave™: Microsegmentation Solutions, Q3 2024 report, Illumio ZTS is proven to strengthen cyber resilience and reduce the impact of attacks. Results from a Forrester Total Economic ImpactTM of Illumio ZTS show Illumio ZTS reduces the blast radius of attacks by 66% on average, saving $1.8 million via decreased overall risk exposure. Ransomware emulations from Bishop Fox also show that ZTS stops attacks from spreading nearly four times faster than detection and response capabilities alone.
“Breaches today are inevitable, but disasters don’t have to be,” says Pete Wilson, Director Partner Sales at EMEA. “Illumio Zero Trust Segmentation provides a simple and effective way to contain threats, minimize risk, and build resilience. We’re thrilled to partner with ACEN to jointly deliver value to customers and empower them to stay agile in face of today’s cyberthreats.”
The partnership between ACEN and Illumio will enable ACEN clients to enhance their cybersecurity posture significantly. By integrating Illumio’s Zero Trust Segmentation (ZTS) Platform, ACEN can offer a robust solution that not only prevents breaches but also ensures minimal disruption to business operations.
The collaboration will allow ACEN to leverage Illumio’s advanced technology to provide tailored cybersecurity solutions across various industries, including healthcare, finance, and manufacturing. Joint efforts will focus on delivering comprehensive security strategies that address the unique challenges of hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Together, ACEN and Illumio are committed to helping organizations build a resilient cybersecurity framework that can withstand the evolving threat landscape. This partnership marks a significant step towards achieving their shared vision of a safer digital world.
