That's four times the power of the closest competitor and with software upgrades in under five minutes, performance is never impacted. We are excited to join forces with Utimaco to provide our customers with such a powerful on-premises HSM, that is also available in a fully containerized cloud version. Utimaco’s key management platform allows organizations to streamline processes and reduce workloads while minimizing costs and risk of human error”, commented Avinash Advani, Founder & CEO at CyberKnight.
“The increased speed of digitization in 2021 in the Middle East increases the need for organizations to define their cloud strategy and make use of the flexibility as well as the potential for cost reduction that an as-a-Service model can offer. This includes security solutions, and we want to provide our customers with the high standard of HSMs in whichever form they need them, be it on premise or in the cloud. We are delighted to partner with CyberKnight to leverage their network of strategic partners, security expertise, and accelerate our expansion plans in the region.”, said Mario Brand, VP Sales EMEA, at Utimaco.
