Industry leaders deliver new joint solution for mobile workers
to safely share content and collaborate on any device from any
location
Burlington, MA and San Carlos, CA- August 31, 2015 -
Acronis®, a global leader in
data protection, and Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd.
(Nasdaq: CHKP), the largest pure-play security vendor globally,
today announced a partnership to eliminate mobile threats for
companies by providing integrated data security and protection for
mobile workers. Through a new joint solution that combines Check
Point Capsule - a mobile security solution - with Acronis Access
Advanced - a secure file sync & share solution - companies can
enable mobile workers to safely share content and collaborate on
any device from any location, while protecting them from data loss,
device theft and malware by extending the corporate security policy
to mobile devices.
Protecting Mobile Devices with Advanced Data Safety, Security
and Privacy
Acronis is focused on providing companies with complete data
protection through an integrated set of solutions, including
backup, disaster recovery and file sync & share. Acronis believes
that complete data protection not only requires the most advanced
data safety, but also data security to protect companies from
outside threats, and data privacy to ensure that they stay in
control of their data at all times - in transit, on mobile devices
and in the cloud. To achieve this, Acronis leverages a highly
flexible and open architecture that supports easy integration with
leading 3rd party solutions, the latest global
encryption standards including AES256, and private and secure
search.
Check Point protects companies from cyberattacks by leveraging a
complete security architecture that defends against threats to an
enterprise's network and out to mobile devices. Check Point Capsule
provides seamless security to protect business data, establish a
secure business environment on mobile devices, and secure business
documents, devices, and networks.
By pairing Acronis Access Advanced with Check Point Capsule
remote users are granted secure access to all corporate content on
mobile devices with shared file repositories transparently
synchronized, ensuring that users are able to seamlessly extend
their work spaces to their devices while remaining secure at all
times. The seamless integration of Acronis Access Advanced with
Check Point Capsule Docs ensures that all documents are encrypted
and accessible only to authorized personnel. Enterprises also have
a full audit trail of who accesses what document and when.
Leveraging the strong global presence of both companies,
including the Check Point R&D center in Israel and the new
Acronis R&D in Singapore that focuses on security, Acronis and
Check Point are able to support the most advanced security
standards available today and are well positioned to meet the
unique security needs of companies worldwide.
"In today's evolving threat landscape, it's critical to turn
technology, and security, into an enabler for business growth,"
said Alon Kantor, vice president, business development at Check
Point Software Technologies. "Through this partnership with
Acronis, we're able to deliver strong solutions that will allow
organizations to secure their mobile workforce and continue
business as usual, with the confidence that their data will remain
in their own hands."
"As companies and employees around the world continue to embrace
mobile working and mobile devices, valuable company data is more
vulnerable than ever before," said Dvir Ben-Aroya, vice president,
business development at Acronis. "We believe in providing complete
data protection that extends across data safety, security and
privacy, and partnering with leaders like Check Point brings the
added protection of industry-leading security to our
solutions."
