PRESIDIO
“ YOU HAVE TO GET THE BASE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT WHEN IT COMES TO SECURING YOUR COMPANY BEFORE YOU CAN THINK ABOUT BRINGING IN PRESIDIO TO PROVIDE THE FULL STACK , FULL STOP ”
DAVE TRADER FIELD CISO , PRESIDIO
“ Lacework has implemented a feature called polygraph that gives us additional visibility into cloud workload security . Lacework has done a fantastic job of applying machine learning and AI . They pull the covers back and show what that science looks like .”
“ It helps me to look into these cloud environments ahead of time and apply that technology to that cloud assessment . Then I can pinpoint the risk profile that I have for this particular workload and identify how to fix it . Lacework maps that right out for you . It ’ s all about anomaly detection and focusing on EUBA .”
Presidio also works with Trend Micro which uses advanced AI learning to enable resilience in cybersecurity for businesses , governments , and consumers with connected solutions across cloud workloads , endpoints , email , OT , and networks .
Trader appreciates Trend Micro ’ s ability to scale effectively across the board . “ When it comes to massive environments , they ' re able to get that data under control , scrutinise that data , help us mitigate , and remediate .”
Another important player in this space is Fortinet which secures the largest enterprise , service provider , and government organisations around the world . The Fortinet Security Fabric architecture can deliver security without compromise to address the most critical security challenges , whether in networked , application , cloud , or mobile environments .
Trader identifies Fortinet as doing a tremendous job around identity access management . “ With Fortinet , you ' re able to really leverage the entire ecosystem of all the different disciplines between their next generation firewall systems .
“ They have the ability to have all those product lines working in harmony , and they can distill that information . We start with wanting to understand the success criteria , and figure out if this is allowed , or not , in the client ’ s environment , and they manage it seamlessly . That harmony is so important . I have to stress this to my CISO friends that harmony allows us to really have bigger conversations around zero trust networking and new methodologies .”
When Cyber magazine first spoke to Trader last year he predicted “ monumental opportunities in what our security practice can accomplish in 2021 ” - how right he was . “ I don ' t believe in silver bullets when it comes to cybersecurity , because I do respect the adversary , but I do think Presidio has shown a pioneering spirit to come up with this groundbreaking ransomware solution .”
