AUGMENTT TAKES CYBER SECURITY HEAD ON WITH NEW CLOUD APP SECURITY PRODUCT, SECURE, EMPOWERING MSPs TO MEET SURGING DEMAND FOR SECURITY SERVICES
Breakthrough release of Augmentt Secure platform closely follows the company’s successful SOC 2 certification – deepening their commitment to security.
Ottawa, ON – November 19, 2021 – Already a global leader in SaaS management solutions created for Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Augmentt deepens its recent focus on the cloud app security space with the release of Augment Secure, placing MSPs at the forefront of cloud software security for the modern enterprise.
With data breaches and cyber attacks having increased by as much as 775% since 2017, MSPs who deliver data security to clients have a world of opportunity ahead of them.
“It should be no surprise to anyone that SaaS and cloud apps are taking over, but what we’re seeing and hearing is the growing security concerns around data loss and security breaches,” said Derik Belair, Chief Executive Officer at Augmentt. In fact, people feel the general state of cybersecurity is getting worse and people are more pessimistic compared to 2020. “We see 2022 as theyear that MSPs really start to capitalize on this massive opportunity to address the surging demand for cloud app security services.”
“We’re excited to be able to address the MSPs growing need for centralized and multi-tenant cloud app security monitoring and management solution for Microsoft 365, and take it a step further with remediation with Augmentt Engage” added Belair. Microsoft reported that 99.9% of security breaches could be prevented by turning on Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) – and Augmentt has made that incredibly simple for MSPs to monitor and report on security policies like MFA enrollment across all tenants.
This game-changing cloud app security platform gives MSPs the tools and insight they need to:
-
- Run free security threat reports to all their customers and prospects, making it easier to sell security services by showing current cyber threat attempts on organizations and devising appropriate threat mitigation strategies
- Audit security configurations, like MFA, on-demand and monitor policy adoption across all the customers.
- Produce and share customer-facing reports that aggregate prevented threats and demonstrate the full value of security services
- Demonstrate ongoing value at QBR meetings by tracking improvements in Microsoft security posture scores.
Augmentt plans on quickly releasing remediation and custom policy monitoring within Secure, along with introducing further apps like Google Workspace and Salesforce in the new year.
This latest product launch comes right on the heels of Augmentt’s successful completion of the Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 Type 1 audit announced in September. The audit certified that
Augmentt’s information security practices, policies, procedures, and operations meet the industry gold standard for security, availability, and confidentiality.
“Our MSPs partners can feel more confident than ever that Augmentt is making every investment possible to establish and maintain the highest levels of security and compliance,” explained Belair, “within our internal operations and throughout Augmentt Secure and all our other platforms.”
