Security solutions for the Microsoft Azure Cloud

“Security and compliance are top priorities of Microsoft Azure customers,” said Vibhor Kapoor, Director Product Marketing, Microsoft. “We’re pleased that Alert Logic’s security suite gives customers the option of an additional layer of network and application security designed specifically for the Azure cloud.”

Microsoft Azure’s shared responsibility approach to security requires customers to maintain responsibility for data and application protection. Alert Logic’s security solution runs natively in the Microsoft Azure cloud, as well as on customer premises and in hosted datacenters. This hybrid model for cloud security—unique to Alert Logic—gives customers a holistic, single-pane-of-glass view into their security posture, thereby eliminating the need to deploy multiple products to accommodate different environments. The same tool is used for all environments, providing the same customer experience across all infrastructures, wherever the application is deployed.

“We are excited to provide Microsoft Azure customers with a suite of security and compliance solutions that allow them to migrate their applications to the Microsoft Azure cloud with complete confidence in their security posture,” said Rohit Gupta, Vice President of Business Development, Alert Logic. “This will give more and more businesses the ability to stay secure, compliant, and use their internal resources to focus on their business, not their security.”

Security solutions are crucial not only to the safety of a business’s critical data, but also to the success of the business itself. Current Microsoft Azure and Alert Logic customer EnergyEarth recently deployed Alert Logic Log Manager, and has been able to meet their compliance requirements while reducing costs by employing a single, managed security solution in their Microsoft Azure environment.

“Alert Logic’s Log Manager for Microsoft Azure successfully fulfills our compliance requirements with a single security solution that is fully scalable. This makes Alert Logic both a logical and economically sound decision for us,” said Jeff Grine Director, IT for EnergyEarth. “We look forward to seeing the expansion of Alert Logic’s security solution in the marketplace.”
