Armorblox, a cybersecurity innovator that helps organizations communicate more securely over email, announced the availability of Armorblox Email Protection in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace,
an online store providing applications and services for use on
Microsoft Azure. Armorblox customers now can take advantage of the
scalability, high availability, and security of Azure, with streamlined
deployment and management.
Armorblox
is an API-based cybersecurity platform that helps organizations
communicate more securely over email and other cloud office applications
in Microsoft 365. Powered by natural language understanding (NLU),
Armorblox analyzes thousands of signals to understand the context of
communications and protect organizations of all sizes against business
email compromise (BEC), advanced phishing, socially engineered email
attacks, and loss of sensitive data.
With
the move to Microsoft Office 365, organizations have been able to
streamline their email security stack by moving away from legacy secure
email gateways that disabled or duplicated native Microsoft controls.
Armorblox provides an effective, non-overlapping augmentation to native
Microsoft email security controls, broadens threat protection coverage,
and raises the bar for cybercriminals launching targeted email attacks.
Armorblox integrates with SIEM and SOAR tools over RESTful APIs to route
alerts and insights to preferred downstream solutions for aggregation
and centralized management by security teams.
The
Armorblox platform provides fast ROI by integrating into an
organization's environment using APIs without requiring any
configuration or setup. Armorblox analyzes six months of a customer's
email archives to form historical communication baselines and provides a
30-day lookback at targeted email attacks that evaded gateways and
native controls. Customers can purchase Armorblox directly via Microsoft
co-sell and through the Azure Marketplace. All purchases count towards
enterprise Azure commitments.
Dhananjay
Sampath, co-founder and CEO of Armorblox, said, "We're delighted to
strengthen our ongoing relationship with Microsoft and make the
Armorblox solution available on the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. Email
is still the true system of record for businesses, making it fertile
ground for both deliberate breach attempts and accidental data loss.
Organizations of all sizes, from Fortune 500 firms to mid-sized
enterprises, can now purchase, deploy, and use Armorblox directly from
Microsoft to secure their communications from malicious actors and human
error."
"Armorblox's
team has reimagined email security and now Microsoft 365 customers can
realize the value of using Armorblox as a security augment," said Steve
Herrod, Managing Director, General Catalyst. "Email attacks continue to
persist and evolve, but the Armorblox collaboration with Microsoft will
enable businesses of all sizes to avail next-generation email security
that's effective, easy to use, and gets better with time."
"Through
Microsoft Azure Marketplace, customers around the world can easily
find, buy, and deploy partner solutions they can trust, all certified
and optimized to run on Azure," said Jake Zborowski, General Manager,
Microsoft Azure Platform Microsoft Corp. "We're happy to welcome the
Armorblox Email Protection solution to the growing Azure Marketplace
ecosystem."
The
Azure Marketplace is an online market for buying and selling cloud
solutions certified to run on Azure. The Azure Marketplace helps connect
companies seeking innovative, cloud-based solutions with partners who
have developed solutions that are ready to use.
