Forbes reconhece a Illumio como a melhor empresa de nuvem

Nesta semana, a Forbes anunciou sua lista Cloud 100 em parceria com a Bessemer Venture Partners e a Salesforce Ventures. Esta lista homenageia as melhores empresas de nuvem privada do mundo que se destacam por seu crescimento, vendas, avaliação, cultura e reputação. Não é preciso dizer que estamos entusiasmados por estar nesta lista de elite pela quarta vez (2016, 2018, 2019 e 2020).

As empresas são selecionadas para a lista Forbes Cloud 100 com base no crescimento e na força e a partir de uma pontuação de reputação determinada por 40 juízes CEO das principais empresas de nuvem pública.

Então, como a Illumio entrou na lista pela quarta vez em cinco anos? Resumindo, 2020 foi um grande ano para nós.

O Illumio vai até o endpoint (com a nuvem!)

In June we launched Illumio Edge, stopping the spread of ransomware and finally bringing Zero Trust to the endpoint. This solution is delivered and managed entirely through the cloud - another first for Illumio. We also announced and major strategic partnership with CrowdStrike, so that customers can deploy Illumio Edge either via our own lightweight agent, or via CrowdStrike's Falcon agent.

2020 foi um ano desafiador para todos, e as equipes de segurança, em particular, se esforçaram para se defender contra um cenário cada vez maior de ameaças. Com as organizações migrando para um modelo de trabalho remoto quase da noite para o dia, a resiliência cibernética se tornou sinônimo de resiliência nos negócios. Ao entregar o Illumio Edge seis meses antes do previsto, a equipe da Illumio trabalhou para fazer nossa parte para proteger nossos clientes e promover nossa missão de as organizações concretizarem um futuro sem violações de alto perfil.

Liderança na segmentação

In our continued journey to lead the segmentation market and Zero Trust movement, we also released first-of-its-kind functionality for Illumio ASP, App Owner View (AOV). AOV makes it easier to scale segmentation projects. It gives application owners the ability to write their own security policies and puts the power into the teams that know best‚  the app owners. Illumio is the first to bring this feature to market, enabling our customers to fast track their path to Zero Trust.

Continuamos a fazer parcerias com líderes do setor

Illumio partnered with Palo Alto Networks to integrate our segmentation platform with their Next-Generation Firewalls and Panorama to automate dynamic security changes for workloads inside of Palo Alto Networks Dynamic Address Groups. Now, our joint customers can streamline their policy management and reduce manual tasks so they can continually update their security policies with real-time context for their dynamic workloads.

Within the last year, we also joined the IBM Security App Exchange with our App for QRadar, which gives customers greater real-time visibility into the communications happening in their data centers and clouds. This also helps enhance security operations and improve our customers' security posture.

Illumio also made updates to our application on the ServiceNow store this year. Being certified for the ServiceNow store means that our product successfully completed specific tests focused on Now Platform security, compatibility, performance, and integration interoperability. This partnership enables more efficient workload labeling and saves customers time and headaches. Beyond this, we have strengthened our partnerships with companies like Oracle Exadata, Splunk, Citrix, F5, and more. That's because we believe intentional partnerships with seamless integrations make customers more secure and successful, and that's the end goal.

Crescimento contínuo e validação do mercado

No último ano, expandimos os negócios globalmente. Somente na APAC, aumentamos nosso número de funcionários em 325% e nossa base de clientes na região em mais de 300%. Em todo o mundo, vimos um aumento de 151% no total de clientes.

Part of growing the business is investing in research that helps the industry at large. That's why we worked with Bishop Fox and their red team to quantify the efficacy of micro-segmentation. The key takeaway? Micro-segmentation is effective. Implementing application ringfencing on 100 workloads made it 4.5X more difficult for an attacker to reach their intended target. Expand that to 1000 workloads and it becomes 22X more difficult for the attacker to reach their goal.

Additionally, Illumio was recognized as a leader in The Forrester Wave^TM: Zero Trust eXtended (ZTX) Ecosystem Platform Providers Q4 2019 report. We received the highest possible marks in seven of the evaluation criteria: workload security, visibility and analytics, automation and orchestration, manageability and usability, APIs, vision and strategy, and advocacy. We made serious strides toward our mission this year - to realize a future without high-profile breaches.

But our customers say it better than anyone. One of our customers on Gartner Peer Insights said, "Excellent company, the support and knowledge of their solution and how it fits into the enterprise is excellent. The team we work with go above and beyond to find the solution that is right for us."

Como sempre, tudo se resume à equipe. Os iluminadores enfrentam desafios e dão o melhor de si todos os dias para melhor atender nossos clientes e ajudá-los a proteger seus ativos essenciais. Estamos honrados em ter essa motivação e trabalho árduo reconhecidos pela Forbes e, como costumamos dizer na Illumio, em frente!
