Safe-T Takes the Software-Defined Perimeter to the Next Level With New Software-Defined Access Solution

HERZLIYA, Israel, Nov. 1, 2017

With cyber attacks growing in number and sophistication, enterprise applications, services and sensitive data are constantly at risk of being compromised. SDPs emerged in the last few years to address shortcomings of fixed perimeter technologies. Safe-T's Software-Defined Access advances SDPs, delivering these benefits:

• Access to visibility and availability of applications, services and networks only after assessing trust based on policies for authorized user, device, location and application
• Seamless user experience with secured data and controlled usage across multi-premise, hybrid cloud environments
• Protection and control of data access and usage by separating the access layer from the authentication layer, and segmenting internal networks
• Reduction of costs through simplification, operational efficiency and future proofing technology

According to the Gartner report "It's Time to Isolate Your Services from the Internet Cesspool", published on September 30, 2016 by analysts Steve Riley, Neil MacDonald and Greg Young, "More than 98% of external attacks on enterprises occur over the public internet. Services brought within the isolation zone are no longer visible on the public internet and thus shielded from attackers. Isolation reduces the attack surface area to nearly zero. Gartner estimates that organizations who isolate digital business services will experience a 70% reduction in attacks that compromise these services."

In the same Gartner report, the analysts recommend that: "Security and risk management leaders should: Favor software-defined perimeters (SDP) and other isolation technologies capable of precise, context-based, application-level access only after successful authentication; Look for products or services that can expand identity from one to two factors and then beyond with contextual and adaptive access controls."

"As executives know all too well, hacks and breaches take a massive human and economic toll," said Safe-T CEO Shachar Daniel. "Safe-T's Software Defined Access is a unique and essential solution which ensures that our customers' sensitive data is available to only the right people by making data virtually invisible to attackers. This delivers immediate ROI by reducing both capital and operational expenditures, leading enterprises to focus on growing their business rather than deflecting future attacks."
