RevBits announces issuance of U.S. patent for unique product security architecture using zero-knowledge encryption

Leave a comment

Provides Maximum Data Protection in Browsers and Dashboards

MINEOLA, New York, Sept. 8, 2020 — Cybersecurity software provider RevBits today has announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued U.S. Patent No.US10579542B2 covering technology which provides the security of zero-knowledge encryption for data in transit and at rest, while providing the ease and efficiency of implementation of encryption within the user’s browser.


"As part of our ongoing commitment to provide our customers with the most advanced cybersecurity software solutions to protect their most valuable assets, we are continuously investing to improve the internal security of our solutions," said David Schiffer, CEO. "As our PAM solution manages access for all privileged accounts in a company, it is extremely important  to be well protected against attempts to intercept and potentially abuse its data. The technology covered in this new patent allows us to take this protection to a new level." 

"Using a combination of different encryption and decryption algorithms and keys we make sure that any critical data which is exchanged between browsers and servers is fully protected at all times," said Mucteba Celik, CTO. "All data at transit is double encrypted and data at rest stays in an encrypted state at any time, hence the zero-knowledge encryption. As a result any hostile attempt to access data stored at the servers will fail."

RevBits provides cybersecurity software for privileged access management, endpoint protection, email security and deception technology.  Implementation of this patented architecture in the dashboards of their solutions provides RevBits’ customers with yet another important security feature that up to now was not available in the market.

Palo Alto Networks Recognized by Frost & Sullivan as the 2020 Indian Network Security Vendor Company of the Year Award

Leave a comment

Palo Alto Networks Next Generation Firewall (NGFW) can securely enable users, content, and applications, including SaaS applications, by classifying all traffic irrespective of the port

MUMBAI, India, Aug. 28, 2020 — Based on its recent analysis of the Indian network security vendor market, Frost & Sullivan recognizes Palo Alto Networks as the recipient of the 2020 Indian Company of the Year Award.


Palo Alto Networks is one of the prominent leaders in the Indian cybersecurity space. Its portfolio of offerings ranges from network security, web security, cloud security, threat intelligence, endpoint security, application security, secure SD-WAN, and more. Not only does Palo Alto Networks help secure on-premise infrastructure but also virtual, datacenter and cloud environments. Its solutions provide visibility into the entire IT landscape and help enterprises build an improved security posture. Through Palo Alto Networks advanced security solutions, customers can identify threats faster and initiate a response mechanism based on accurate investigation and a team of proven threat hunters. The security vendor leverages emerging security technologies to act against unknown threats. Palo Alto Networks Next Generation Firewalls (NGFWs), which remains as the foundational element for its customers’ network security strategy, provides user-identity awareness and protection, application usage, visibility and control, secured encrypted traffic, ability to detect and prevent advanced threats, deployment flexibility, and shared threat intelligence.

Palo Alto Networks has long exhibited healthy double-digit growth, much higher than the market average. Over the last few years, India has consistently been one of the fastest growing regions for the company with a strong value proposition for customers. Although large enterprises have been the primary focus for the company, it successfully taps brownfield opportunities as well. In terms of vertical-centric adoption, most of the company’s revenue stems from advanced requirements driven by the government, BFSI, technology, education, professional services, healthcare, and telecommunications sectors.

"Palo Alto Networks adopts the platform approach towards enterprise security. It believes in delivering highly effective security in enterprises’ on-premises infrastructure while eliminating unnecessary complexity and breaking down existing silos. When it comes to securing the cloud, Palo Alto Networks offers unprecedented visibility into risks and consistently governs access, protects data, and secures cloud applications," said Rajarshi Dhar, senior industry analyst, ICT Practice, Frost & Sullivan. "Being a next-generation security company, it strongly believes in harnessing advanced techniques like AI and ML to secure the future."

Palo Alto Networks NGFWs deliver prevention-focused architecture that is easy to deploy and operate and uses automation to reduce the manual effort of security teams. It has the ability to inspect all traffic (applications, threats, and content) and tie that traffic to the user, irrespective of the type of device or location. Using the company’s NGFWs, enterprises protect data centers (physical and virtual) by segmenting data and applications using zero trust principles. Consistent security policies are enforced across on-premise, cloud environments, and branch locations.

"Focused on empowering enterprises with best-in-class security products that fit today’s modern IT landscape, Palo Alto Networks constantly enhances its product capabilities through innovation. It has rebranded its entire security portfolio through the introduction of Strata, Prisma, and Cortex product lines," noted Dhar. "Its integrated security theme that connects the network, endpoint, cloud, branch, data center, IoT, 5G, and SD-WAN with advanced threat hunting, intelligence, and zero trust security is uncommon among security vendors. This approach is proving particularly popular among several large enterprises that are looking to build a strong security posture."

Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents a Company of the Year award to the organization that demonstrates excellence in terms of growth strategy and implementation in its field. The award recognizes a high degree of innovation with products and technologies, and the resulting leadership in terms of customer value and market penetration.

Frost & Sullivan Best Practices awards recognize companies in a variety of regional and global markets for demonstrating outstanding achievement and superior performance in areas such as leadership, technological innovation, customer service, and strategic product development. Industry analysts compare market participants and measure performance through in-depth interviews, analysis, and extensive secondary research to identify best practices in the industry.

Acronis True Image 2021 Unites Award-winning Backup with Advanced Antimalware, Creating The First Complete Personal Cyber Protection Solution

Leave a comment

Integrating real-time antimalware and on-demand antivirus with its best-of-breed personal backup solution enables Acronis to deliver unmatched value to users

SINGAPORE, Aug. 21, 2020 — Acronis, a global leader in cyber protection, has just announced the release of Acronis True Image 2021. The new release integrates advanced cybersecurity capabilities with unmatched personal backup to create the first complete personal cyber protection solution for home users, prosumers, and small businesses around the world.

Delivery comes as the COVID-19 pandemic exposes gaps in traditional solutions and strategies. Securing home machines has never been more important, yet a recent Acronis survey found nearly half (47%) of remote workers never received clear guidance on working from home.

Incorporating cybersecurity capabilities such as real-time antimalware protection, on-demand antivirus scans, web filtering, and videoconference protection into Acronis True Image ensures users have complete cyber protection. For individuals and small business users, unifying these vital capabilities in one solution makes their protection easier to manage and more affordable, while greatly improving the security.

"As more people work or attend classes from home, the FBI documents a 400% increase in cyberattacks because hackers know home systems are not usually as well-defended as an office," said Serguei "SB" Beloussov, founder and CEO of Acronis. "Backup without cybersecurity is an incomplete option in that situation, as is cybersecurity without backup. Acronis True Image 2021 delivers the easy, efficient, and secure cyber protection needed today."

Standalone backup and cybersecurity are obsolete

With the modern reliance on everyday devices like computers, smartphones, and tablets, the data they contain has an inherent value. Cybercriminals are constantly evolving their attacks to reach that data, which is why security research firms such as AV-Test report more than 350,000 new malware threats every day.

Since backup software and files are often the targets of these new attacks to prevent recovery, backup alone no longer provides suitable protection for users. Similarly, conventional cybersecurity solutions do not provide the data protection and recovery capabilities users need.

Relying on multiple products that were not designed to work together creates security gaps, is more complex to manage, and is more costly. With a single, integrated solution, Acronis True Image 2021 users can proactively stop any malware attack and then quickly restore affected files. The single, intuitive interface reduces the complexity of managing their security and backups.

Integration delivers superior cyber protection

For the last few years, Acronis True Image has been the only personal backup solution with a built-in antiransomware that stops attacks in real-time, while automatically restoring any affected files.

With the launch of Acronis True Image 2021, those capabilities are expanded with the addition of the company’s advanced antimalware technology, which is currently deployed in Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud. This next-gen, full-stack antimalware has been shown by independent security labs such as Virus Bulletin and AV-Test to return a 100% detection rate with zero false-positives.

As a result, home users gain advanced capabilities with Acronis True Image 2021, including:

  • Real-time protection, driven by AI-enhanced behavioral heuristics, which stops all malware — including zero-day attacks by never-before-seen threats
  • On-demand antivirus scans of the full system or quick scans of at-risk files, either of which can be scheduled in advance or run instantly
  • Web filtering that automatically blocks Windows users from accessing malicious websites that harbor malware, disinformation, scams, and phishing attacks
  • Videoconference protection prevent hackers and malware injection attacks from exploiting popular apps like Zoom, Cisco Webex, and Microsoft Teams
  • Comprehensive detection, with both behavioral analysis and signature-based analysis engines

These advanced antimalware capabilities are included with Advanced and Premium licenses, and offered as a three-month trial with Standard and Essential licenses.

Pricing and availability

Four versions of Acronis True Image are available: Standard, Essential, Advanced and Premium. One-computer licenses starting at US$59.99 for Standard and US$49.99 for Essential. Special launch prices for Advanced and Premium licenses (starting at US$69.99 and US$99.99, respectively) are available until November 2020, at which time the full MSRP will be in effect (starting at US$89.99 and US$124.99, respectively).

About Acronis

Acronis unifies data protection and cybersecurity to deliver integrated, automated cyber protection that solves the safety, accessibility, privacy, authenticity, and security (SAPAS) challenges of the modern digital world. With flexible deployment models that fit the demands of service providers and IT professionals, Acronis provides superior cyber protection for data, applications, and systems with innovative next-generation antivirus, backup, disaster recovery, and endpoint protection management solutions. With award-winning AI-based anti-malware and blockchain-based data authentication technologies, Acronis protects any environment — from cloud to hybrid to on-premises — at a low and predictable cost.

Founded in Singapore in 2003 and incorporated in Switzerland in 2008, Acronis now has more than 1,500 employees in 33 locations in 18 countries.

SafeGuard Cyber Wins 2020 Campus Safety Best Award Via Campus Safety Magazine

Leave a comment

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Virginia, Aug. 17, 2020 — SafeGuard Cyber, the leading SaaS platform offering digital risk protection for modern communications, today announced that it has been recognized by Campus Safety Magazine as a winner of the 2020 Campus Safety BEST Awards for Incident Response & Records Management Software, honoring superior products and services for hospital, school and university protection professionals.

The COVID-19 crisis has thrown many educational institutions into uncharted territory, with infosec leaders forced to rapidly adopt virtual learning technologies, from K-12 to the university level. This new paradigm brings unique cybersecurity challenges and risk. However, the virtual campus can be comprehensively secured when endpoint protection is combined with powerful digital risk protection.

"Administrators are confronting new and unfamiliar security issues, from ransomware to monitoring digital platforms for cyberbullying, and maintaining the meticulous records required for legal recourse and conflict mediation," remarked Jim Zuffoletti, co-founder and CEO of SafeGuard Cyber. "We’re grateful to receive the 2020 Campus Safety BEST Award in recognition of the technology we’ve built to help educational institutions foster a safe remote learning environment."

"The volume and velocity of digital communications is a unique security challenge," according to Otavio Freire, SafeGuard Cyber’s co-founder and CTO. "One school we’re protecting saw 1200 students generate over 125,000 messages in the first 10 days. At that scale, you need machine learning to flag risks in real time, and in any language to serve today’s diverse student communities."

The 2020 Campus Safety BEST Awards recognize superlative security, law enforcement, emergency management and safety solutions for K-12 campuses, institutions of higher education and healthcare organizations.

"Campus Safety magazine takes pride in focusing on content that helps protection professionals in the healthcare and education markets keep their students, teachers, patients, visitors, and campuses safe and secure," says Robin Hattersley Gray, executive editor of Campus Safety.

The SafeGuard Cyber platform empowers schools to detect and quarantine problematic messages inside of these apps, while flagging inappropriate conduct like obscene language and violent speech, effectively scaling cyberbullying and harassment compliance online.

Infortrend’s exclusive data protection – distributed mode brings ultra-high performance and optimized capacity utilization

Leave a comment

TAIPEI, Aug. 11, 2020 — Infortrend® Technology, Inc. (TWSE: 2495), the industry-leading enterprise storage provider, developed exclusive distributed mode for its EonStor CS scale-out NAS systems. It allows enterprises ensure data protection while increasing capacity utilization by 90% and performance by up to 50% compared to traditional data protection policies, i.e. Erasure Code and Replica.

EonStor CS is a scale-out NAS system that can be scaled horizontally by adding more nodes, so that capacity and performance linearly expands with the increase of system nodes number. On top of traditional Erasure Code and Replica policies, EonStor CS supports exclusive distributed mode for data protection which gives enterprises such benefits as increased performance, capacity optimization, and lowered TCO. Thanks to supporting single and dual node clusters, system deployment can be started with only one or two nodes and then subsequently expanded with new nodes as storage capacity and performance demands grow. In distributed mode, a file is evenly distributed in each node, and only one copy of it is written to storage. Unlike Erasure Code, distributed mode does not require data parity calculation and unlike Replica mode, it does not create duplicated copies of data. This allows ultra-high 90% capacity utilization and increased by up to 50% performance compared to other modes.

EonStor CS has a unique system architecture with embedded layer of Infortrend RAID protection. Opposed to traditional scale-out NAS, where the damaged data must be reconstructed from other nodes through the network, recovery of corrupted data in EonStor CS architecture does not occupy the network bandwidth as it occurs inside the node via RAID mechanism, so it is faster and system performance is not affected.

Leave a comment

Entrust Datacard has  led the market by adopting an integrated approach to the TLS and PKI business

LONDON, Aug. 11, 2020 — Based on its recent analysis of the global transport layer security certificate market, Frost & Sullivan recognizes Entrust Datacard with the 2020 Global Innovation Excellence Frost Radar Award. Its extensive product portfolio; customized, scalable solutions; and flexible business model have helped Entrust Datacard gain a global customer base.

"Entrust Datacard’s PKI use cases extend beyond web security to IoT, email, and cloud. It has positioned itself as a pioneer in the TLS space with initiatives around post-quantum cryptography (PQC), verified mark certificate (VMC), and cloud-based use cases," said Swetha R K, industry analyst. "The Entrust Certificate Services (ECS) portal brings together public and private use cases of PKI into a single interface. The gateways and endpoints layer on the ECS portal supports a wide range of protocols and enables API-based integration with endpoints and applications. Customers can deploy software agents within endpoints to perform various backend tasks."

Entrust Datacard has exhibited the strongest and most consistent organic growth rate in the industry since 2016, achieving double digit year-over-year growth in both Organization Validation (OV) certificates and in Extended Validation (EV) certificates. And, in 2019, it held the second largest share in the high assurance certificate segment.

The company has achieved considerable success with its focus on long-term innovation in line with evolving market needs and the ever-more sophisticated threat landscape. This commitment to innovation has helped it become the first commercial certifying authority (CA) to have DevOps integrations, such as with ServiceNow and Ansible. It is also the first commercial CA to release verified mark certificates (VMCs) that allow a customer’s official logo to appear in a secure position in an email.

"Another area where Entrust Datacard has taken a pioneering role is in preparing for post-quantum cryptography to help companies sustain their IT ecosystems through anticipated change. It is also collaborating with other organizations like the National Institute of Standards and Technology on new quantum-resistant IETF X.509 certificate formats," noted Swetha. "Entrust Datacard’s strong market performance and investment in R&D will enable it to expand its business through new solutions as well as continue to deliver exceptional customer experiences."

The Innovation Excellence best practice award is bestowed upon companies that are industry leaders reinventing themselves through R&D investments and innovation.
