Partnership enables commercial and government enterprises to meet the increasing requirements for cryptographic-based solutions for greater cybersecurity threat protection and adherence to ever–increasing information security compliance standards
SAN DIEGO, Calif._ May 7 2024 – Garantir, a leading global provider of IT security solutions, and Utimaco, a global platform provider of trusted cybersecurity and compliance solutions and services with headquarters in Aachen (Germany) and Campbell, Calif. (U.S.), today announced that they have entered into a strategic technology integration partnership. This will enable commercial and government enterprises to implement a common cryptographic approach to the access of privileged informational resources, addressing multiple uses cases (code signing, SSH, etc.).
The partnership will deliver a consolidated crypto-agile environment that saves time for system admins and empowers end-users to leverage their familiar tools, resulting in little to no disruption of their work, and guaranteeing the security of access credentials.
Scott Kemish, global vice president of Channel Sales & partnerships at Utimaco, said: “Failure to protect confidential data often results in severe consequences such as financial losses, reputational damage, legal issues, and loss of customer trust. Businesses need to seek solutions that address critical decisions and data protection across the entire digital journey, as fraudsters are striking everywhere possible. And every organization faces the challenge of managing its cryptographic keys. Our hardware security modules are a great fit with Garantir’s platform, and together we provide robust and convenient cryptographic services for the cybersecurity edge our joint customers need.”
Kieran Miller, chief architect, Garantir, said: “Our combined deep technical expertise and focus on core security principles establishes an ecosystem of advanced cybersecurity solutions that enables our joint customers to remain secure without disrupting business operations. Utimaco’s commitment to customer satisfaction and technical excellence resonate deeply with our core values and ethics. When combined with its advanced u.trust general purpose hardware security module, our enterprise platform provides highly secure and high-performance cryptographic services that integrate directly into existing workflows for our customers. With this partnership, we look forward to providing security solutions that enable business operations, not hinder them.”
