Cloud Networking Leader Recognized for
Game-Changing Approach to Firewalling in the Cloud
SANTA
CLARA, Calif., May 10, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Aviatrix®, the cloud networking
expert, today announced that it has been named a winner in the
Firewall category of the 2024 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards. The
award recognizes Aviatrix's groundbreaking Distributed Cloud
Firewall, which extends secure cloud networking, helping
enterprise customers to improve security, simplify operations in
the cloud, and reduce costs.
"Traditional 'next-gen' firewalls were introduced in the data
center era and simply aren't built for the dynamic nature of
cloud," said Chris McHenry, Vice
President of Product Management at Aviatrix. "Network security must
be distributed and embedded into the network to deliver a true,
agile, least privilege, zero trust environment. When we introduced
the Aviatrix Distributed Cloud Firewall, it marked a new era for
cloud network security, and customers are quickly adopting
it."
Aviatrix's Distributed Cloud Firewall allows customers to reduce
costs by 30%+ while achieving a 14X increase in aggregate security
throughput compared to a centralized architecture, which
enterprises – having no alternative – have adopted when
lift-and-shifting firewalls into the cloud. Aviatrix customers are
saving from tens-of-thousands to millions of dollars leveraging
Aviatrix and the new Distributed Cloud Firewall.
"We congratulate Aviatrix on being recognized as an award winner
in the Firewall category of the 2024 Cybersecurity Excellence
Awards," said Holger Schulze, CEO of
Cybersecurity Insiders and founder of the 600,000-member
Information Security Community on LinkedIn, which organizes the 9th
annual Cybersecurity Excellence Awards. "With over 600 entries
across more than 300 categories, the awards are highly competitive.
Your achievement reflects outstanding commitment to the core
principles of excellence, innovation, and leadership in
cybersecurity."
Aviatrix has received several recognitions in the past year for
the Aviatrix Cloud Networking Platform and Distributed Cloud
Firewall. Notably, it was named to the Fortune Cyber 60, a new
listing of the most important venture-backed startups that offer
enterprise-grade cybersecurity solutions. It has also been
recognized on CRN's lists of the 10 Hottest Networking Companies To
Watch In 2024 and The 10 Coolest Cloud Computing Startup Companies
of 2023, as a "Fast Mover" in GigaOm's first-ever Radar Report
for Cloud Network Security, one of the fastest-growing companies in
North America on the 2023 Deloitte
Technology Fast 500™, and a "Cloud Market Leader" in the 2024
Futuriom 50.
