Joongbu Univ. to strengthen its email security with SecuLetter

Leave a comment

SEOUL, South Korea, June 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Joongbu University has strengthened its email security by adopting MARS SLE which is SecuLetter‘s Secure Emil Gateway(SEG) solution for intelligent email hacking attacks and successfully handled malicious code threats sent through email. SecuLetter has been a member of the Born2Global Centre since 2017.

SecuLetter is a security company that develops and supplies products that detect, diagnose, analyze, and prevent malicious code attacks launched via document files (MS Office, PDF etc.) and Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) in various business environments, such as Airgap and Network bridging areas, On-line bulletin boards, Document Centralization, and Content Disarm & Reconstruction (CDR). Its products eliminate security blind spots that have been a weakness of existing behavior-based (sandbox-based) APT solutions and enable accurate and swift diagnosis.

Joongbu University adopted SecuLetter’s solution for multiple reasons, primarily to: detect and analyze advanced malicious code attacks coming through e-mail, prevent malicious URLs contained in the body of emails, block unknown attacks, provide detailed reports on detected malicious code, and ensure easy installation and management.

Mr. Yeom, Jong-gook, Manager of the Joongbu University Computer Information Institute said, “In May of last year, we experienced difficulties in detecting and diagnosing large amounts of hacking emails disguised as Non-PE file attachments (MS Office or PDF), such as quotations and tax invoices. We were looking for a solution that could respond to these malicious attacks and we found out that MARS SLE is the best solution through comparative reviews and POC with several products.

Prior to adopting it, a large number of emails containing URLs leading to malicious code and phishing websites were not detected, but with MARS SLE, we could detect, diagnose, and effectively block such attacks.”

Mr. Lim, Chasung, CEO of SecuLetter said, “About 90 percent or more of APT attacks are made via email and most of them are disguised as email attachments. In addition, these emails have no choice but to open attachments because they are disguising as emails from government agencies, tax invoices, quotations, resumes and recent COVID19 virus-related emails. “Through the use case of Joongbu University, we’re convinced that the university also needs to respond to these advanced email attacks. We believe our solution can be an alternative for all government agencies, financial institutions, businesses and schools that want to protect their systems and assets from hacking email attacks. And we are also actively considering fostering competent security talented students through industry-academic cooperation with schools interested in cyber security research.”

SecuLetter’s products, MARS SLE and MARS SLF are being actively used by major national institutions, financial institutions, and companies including KEPCO E&C, Korea Post Information Center, KISA (Korea Internet & Security Agency), BNK Busan Bank, KAMCO (Korea Asset Management Corporation), KSD (Korea Securities Depository), and KTCU (Korean Teachers’ Credit Union).

Leave a comment

Leading University in New Zealand Replaces Aging Infrastructure with Datrium’s Cloud-based Disaster Recovery and Converged Infrastructure Solutions

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Datrium, the leader in cloud-native disaster recovery with ransomware protection, today announced that The University of Auckland in New Zealand has selected Datrium DVX and Datrium DRaaS with VMware Cloud on AWS solutions to modernize its infrastructure by leveraging the cloud and unifying compute, storage, backup and disaster recovery (DR). Challenged with aging infrastructure and an expensive and complex data center environment, the University’s infrastructure services team, supported by its Premier Partner, BEarena, an ASI Solutions company, chose Datrium for its cost-effective, easy-to-manage, VMware-centric solutions with built-in data resiliency and powerful DR capabilities. Datrium DRaaS with VMware Cloud on AWS offers flexible and scalable on-demand cloud DR with instant Recovery Time Objective (RTO), easy failover and failback without requiring VM conversions.

As New Zealand’s leading university, The University of Auckland manages two large-scale data centers that serve 40,000 students and over 5,000 staff with a core value of conserving, advancing and disseminating knowledge at a high standard through teaching, learning, research and creative work. As part of its digital transformation strategy, the infrastructure services team is embracing its agile operation model to deliver better outcomes to its users.

“As part of our digital transformation efforts, we’re modernizing critical infrastructure including our data centers to empower our IT team to work more efficiently,” said Sanit Kumar, Infrastructure Services Portfolio Manager (ISPM) – Cloud, Network and Datacentre Services at The University of Auckland. “Datrium checked all our boxes. We were looking for a simplified solution that combines compute, storage, backup and disaster recovery, and aligns with VMware so we no longer require separate storage, VMware and backup teams. The power of Datrium’s converged approach and on-demand disaster recovery to VMware Cloud on AWS and instant RTO capability also brings our team major cost savings.”

The University of Auckland was introduced to Datrium technology by BEarena, an ASI Solutions company. BEarena and ASI Solutions have applied their market-leading hyperconverged experience to Datrium technology to help their customers reduce cost, simplify management and move to a hybrid cloud model.

“Rather than provide the University a like-for-like replacement, we scoured the market for the best solution to achieve their business objectives. Ultimately, Datrium helped the University collapse three infrastructure silos into a single cross-functional team that uses automated management so they can focus on strategic priorities,” said Country Manager Lloyd Vickery.  “Datrium has exceeded our expectations in every area—blazing performance, dramatic total cost of ownership improvements, world-class support, consolidated management—and the list goes on. I couldn’t be happier with Datrium and more proud that we are supporting The University of Auckland in continuing its achievements as a world-leading university.”

BEarena and ASI Solutions are the first Datrium DRaaS Select resellers to achieve the highest level of partnership in the region. As Datrium’s first partner in ANZ and exclusive DRaaS Select partners and resellers, BEarena and ASI Solutions deliver significant cost savings, advanced operational intelligence, faster deployment times and simplified DR solutions to their customers. Lloyd Vickery is also the first Datrium DVX Certified Deployment professional in the world; achieving this distinction entails the completion of a rigorous curriculum and passing a certification test. BEarena and ASI Solutions customers benefit from working with highly skilled professionals in the deployment of Datrium to ensure they receive the fastest ROI and best customer experience.

Nathan Lowe, Managing Director of ASI Solutions added, “ASI Solutions is extremely excited to be working with Datrium. An innovative company that is transforming data lifecycle management through a single powerful platform delivering speed, agility and efficiency, Datrium allows our customers to focus on strategic initiatives.”

Datrium DRaaS with VMware Cloud on AWS is a new approach to DR and offers a cloud-native design, built-in backup, instant RTO, continuous compliance and an on-demand pay-as-you-go model. Datrium DRaaS allows organizations to make the cloud their DR site at a fraction of the cost of a second data center. When combined with Datrium DVX software, organizations get the fastest recovery time and simplified data management capabilities.

“Given the enormous rise in ransomware attacks and other disasters, a modern approach to DR is critical. However, it doesn’t need to be an expensive, complicated and unreliable process,” said Datrium CEO Tim Page. “With our on-demand cloud resources, The University of Auckland will be able to recover from a disaster quickly while keeping cloud costs low. We look forward to helping the University transition to cloud DR and supporting its on-premises infrastructure requirements.”

Join Datrium and The University of Auckland for a webinar on June 30, at 1pm PDT to learn more.

About Datrium
Datrium, the leader in cloud-native disaster recovery with ransomware protection, automates data protection against modern threats and enables enterprises to pay for DR when they need it. Datrium Disaster Recovery as a Service with VMware Cloud on AWS (DRaaS) is an easy-to-use SaaS solution that delivers the industry’s first instant RTO cloud DR from backups on AWS S3 and protects all VMware workloads in the cloud and on-premises. Secure by design with always-on encryption, Datrium’s DR with built-in cloud backup is transforming the DR market, empowering enterprises to create their own failproof, on-demand data centers in the public cloud where they only pay for recovery when disaster strikes or for testing. Until now, DR has been a complicated and brittle manual process that needs to interact with many disparate components in the data center. The advent of the cloud has made it possible for Datrium to convert this complex process into a simple-to-use, fully automated SaaS application that delivers 10x more cost-efficient DR. By converging primary, backup, disaster recovery, mobility and encryption into a single multicloud platform called Automatrix™, Datrium maintains fast performance at any scale and enables frictionless data portability between public clouds and on-premises data centers. Data services are consistent across clouds and resource orchestration is automated so applications run at peak performance with increased system resilience and reduced data recovery windows. Liberated from managing data infrastructure, IT teams can drive more strategic initiatives for their businesses and application users can get back to productivity faster. Trusted by global enterprises including eMeter – A Siemens Business, vPay® and Stearns, Datrium is DR done right.™

Leave a comment
  • A much-needed fraud protection solution for mobile network operators (MNOs), Digital merchants & OTTs
  • During trials, MNOs experienced a significant reduction in customer complaints of up to 90%
  • Merchants reported an increase in conversion rates through Armour’s frictionless payment experience

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, May 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Apigate, a Global Digital Content Monetization & Messaging ecosystem, today announced the launch of Armour, a new data-based e-solution to tackle the “big five” issues of Direct Carrier Billing: in-app malware, bots, iFraming, suspicious traffic, and backdoor charging.

Analyst reports stated that 90% of South and Southeast Asia’s population access the internet through mobile phones, which means the region is by far home to the world’s most engaged mobile users. Additionally, the region is expected to grow to US$300 billion by 2025, or threefold from US$100 billion in 2019, bringing a higher risk of online fraud as the ”mobile economy” continues to expand.

This is where Armour steps in, once Armour’s fraud detection is deployed, each transaction is checked against hundreds of data points to validate its trustworthiness. This allows for suspicious activities in the digital payment process to be detected and prevented in real-time through a highly tuned Machine Learning algorithm. Furthermore, Armour can continually and automatically refine its ability to detect an ever-increasing range of threats to the digital payment system.

The added benefit of a reduction in digital payment fraud is an increase in customer satisfaction. Since its roll-out with major partners in South and Southeast Asia, results show a significant decrease in customer complaints while at the same time showing a month on month increase in clean transaction rate, bringing a higher & more sustainable conversion rate for Digital merchants.

Raja Mansukhani, Senior Vice President of APAC, said “Armour as a product is a natural progression to cater to the demands of an ever-growing Digital economy which has led to more significant exposure to fraud. Our objective of developing Armour was to limit this threat while removing a frictionful experience for the end customer, leading to a reduction in complaints for Telcos.”

Leave a comment

The company brings a next generation of mobile ID to the market with advanced features, certified security, and strong overall performance

SANTA CLARA, California, May 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Based on its recent analysis of the global mobile identification (ID) wallet solutions market, Frost & Sullivan recognizes Thales with the 2019 Global Company of the Year Award. In 2019, Gemalto was acquired by Thales, which enabled it to leverage extensive expertise in the digital security credentials market to develop its mobile government-to-citizen identification solution, Thales Gemalto Digital ID Wallet. This technology meets identity security standards and regulations while offering the next generation of mobile ID features to address new and evolving market needs.

Thales’ app allows governments to issue a digitalized version as well as derived digital credentials of state and national ID documents such as driver’s licenses, ID cards, vehicle registration cards, passports, and health insurance cards. Gemalto Digital ID Wallet users can conduct in-person or online identification or share identity attributes with never-before convenience, security, and privacy through any smartphone. Furthermore, the company eases citizen onboarding with a wide range of remote onboarding scenarios to adapt to almost any ecosystem and end-user profile.

“Thales truly goes above and beyond to protect a user’s confidential information by equipping its Thales Gemalto mobile ID solutions with the latest multi-layered security techniques such as encryption, obfuscation, jailbreak detection, and Common Criteria certified advanced White Box Crypto solutions. The company’s app safeguards a user’s private information while giving them complete control over data sharing with certain individuals or organizations,” said Danielle VanZandt, Industry Analyst.

Another key differentiator of the Digital ID Wallet is in its backend platform which offers advanced features and modularity. This flexible business model approach with digital ID platforms available as a solution or as-a-Service model enables Thales to address growing needs for Identification-as-a-Service and Authentication-as-a-Service.

“With the acquisition of Gemalto, Thales serves more than 30,000 entities with its authentication and data encryption technologies, is entrusted by more than 200 public authorities with their government programs and has contributed to over 20 successful digital identity services and mobile ID initiatives around the world,” noted Danielle VanZandt, Industry Analyst. “With such unrivaled experience in identity and document verification, authentication, digital signatures, biometrics, mobile device, and software security, Thales Digital Identity & Security division masters the full chain of trust and is expected to continue excelling in the global mobile ID market.”
