Atos extends Prescriptive Security offering to hybrid Cloud platforms

IRVING, Texas and LAS VEGAS, Oct. 18, 2017 -- Atos, a global leader in digital transformation, today announced an expansion of its Prescriptive Security managed services offering to hybrid cloud platforms. With this latest extension, Atos’ Prescriptive Security unifies Cloud security with traditional on-premise security into one, centralized security operations platform.

Even for large companies with many Cloud instances, the newly enhanced Atos Prescriptive Security offering can be initiated within a few hours, and workload threats can be discovered and eradicated within minutes from multiple layers.  

“Our customers are increasingly concerned with ensuring the same level of security to their hybrid Clouds as they do for their on-premise platforms,” said Stephen Shibel, head of Big Data & Cybersecurity for Atos North American Operations. “In extending our leading Prescriptive Security offering to hybrid Clouds, we’ve addressed this need by consolidating endpoint, network and Cloud security into one delivery unit. Plus, our solution can discover security issues in Cloud workloads within minutes rather than hours or days.”

Atos Prescriptive Security offering is the first to include the technology combination known as McAfee Threat Defense Lifecycle providing one of the most powerful integration and automation capabilities in the industry with Atos’ super computer-functionality of bullion servers and delivered as a service. Now, Atos is extending its Prescriptive Security offering to include McAfee’s new Cloud Workload Security offering, which helps to eliminate security blind spots with automation, secure critical workloads, and simplify management of hybrid Cloud environments.

“Few organizations are purely on-prem or purely Cloud, especially when it comes to security,” said Richard Steranka, vice president of Global Channel Sales and Operations at McAfee. “With Atos’ expansion of the Prescriptive Security service, centered around McAfee^® Enterprise Security Manager and OpenDXL, customers reap the benefits of consistent policies, high-performance analytics and open automation that adapts to their specific hybrid infrastructure.”

Atos’ Prescriptive Security managed service offering, which has now been expanded to hybrid Cloud platforms, is available for customers now and will be highlighted for demo during the McAfee MPOWER Cybersecurity Summit in Las Vegas this week.
