WALLIX delivers on security and visibility for cloud computing

WALLIX announces that seven leading cloud providers have already implemented the Wallix AdminBastion On Demand (WOD) solution in the UK and in France. These early successes come only two months after launch and are a clear confirmation of the relevance of this technology to cloud providers wanting to deliver trusted cloud computing services. This news also demonstrates WALLIX clear innovation in the fields of information security and auditing of privileged user access.

WOD, currently the only on-demand solution for managing privileged users, combines a revenue sharing model with near zero deployment time to make it ideal for the cloud. This helps Cloud Service Providers deliver improved access control and auditing to their customers. Based on a pay per user model, WOD requires no prior investment and no fixed costs. Acting as a source of business for cloud providers and hosting services who want to attract organizations directly impacted by cybersecurity and compliance (PCI-DSS, Solvency, SAE 16, etc.). These requirements have regulations around Privileged Access Management and protection of sensitive data at their centre.

Based on Wallix AdminBastion (WAB) backbone, WOD is a multi-tenancy architecture and fully distributed with one-click secured access for users through the unified WAB Access Manager provides greater efficiency and IT governance particularly for hybrid cloud environments. Cloud Services Providers who select WOD can brand their cloud offering as "WAB Inside". For end customers this is a real seal of trust. The brand allows Cloud Service Providers to ensure that privileged access is managed to keep it secure and monitored and auditing so customers can prove their regulatory compliance.

Dominique Meurisse, COO of WALLIX said, "We are proud to announce the signing of our first seven contracts. Atlantic Systems, DLP Assured, KAPIA Solutions, OGL MSP, OWENTIS and SCALAIR are now our customers. The label "WAB Inside" creates a network of trusted partners that meet the needs of all companies who want to ensure their cyber security and compliance in the cloud."
