In a move to empower\u00a0Middle East\u00a0businesses with a fresh approach to coping with the escalating number of cyberthreats, ColorTokens, a leading innovator in Zero Trust-based cybersecurity solutions, has partnered with Finesse, a\u00a0Dubai-based IT system integrator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The COVID-19 pandemic has driven organizations to fast-track their digital transformation initiatives and embrace cloud solutions to adapt to the new normal. However, the digital shift has given rise to the proliferation of data breaches and ransomware attacks in 2020. The UAE alone saw a\u00a0250% increase in cyberattacks<\/a>, targeting businesses across multiple sectors. This sharp increase in cyber incidents has prompted customer demands for a fresh approach to security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ColorTokens offers an integrated approach to understanding and mitigating cyberthreats across networks, endpoints and applications through its award-winning Xtended ZeroTrust\u2122 Platform, which comprises\u00a0Xshield<\/a>,\u00a0Xprotect<\/a>, and\u00a0Xaccess<\/a>. ColorTokens enables organizations to accurately assess and drastically improve their security postures, ensuring cyber-resiliency across cloud and hybrid environments. Xaccess, the newest addition to the Xtended ZeroTrust\u2122 Platform, is ColorTokens\u2019 solution for Zero Trust secure access for remote employees, third parties, or contractors from distributed locations as they connect with their cloud- or datacenter-based applications or data. Like Xshield and Xprotect, Xaccess is infrastructure-agnostic and cloud-delivered to support unlimited, scalable access control regardless of resource and end-user location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With this partnership, Finesse can give regional customers the ability to instantly visualize and segment their entire IT infrastructure, proactively protect endpoints, and contain and respond to zero-day attacks\u2014all while seamlessly integrating with existing security tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWith the exponential growth of cyberthreats in the\u00a0Middle East, traditional security approaches that follow a \u2018castle-and-moat\u2019 principle are no longer sufficient to protect today\u2019s enterprise networks,\u201d said\u00a0Lee Ealey-Newman, VP Channels for EMEA, ColorTokens. \u201c<\/strong>To prevail against an increasingly malevolent threat landscape, adopting micro-segmentation and a Zero Trust approach that extends to the endpoint has become mission-critical for modern enterprises.
