Dome9 Security Named 2012 SC Magazine Rookie Security Company of the Year Award Finalist
Dome9 Honored for Industry's First Cloud Firewall Security Management Service for Enterprises, SMBs and Cloud Hosting Providers
SAN MATEO, Calif., Nov. 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Dome9 Security(TM), the leading provider of cloud firewall security management for public and private clouds, as well as for dedicated and virtual private servers (VPS), today announced it has been named a 2012 SC Magazine Awards finalist for innovation and achievement in cloud information security. Dome9 is recognized as a finalist for the Rookie Security Company of the Year Award, which acknowledges companies with superior security products that help customers tackle today's most pressing security hurdles.
IT security companies nominate their solutions for consideration for the SC Magazine Awards, and entries are judged by a panel of experts - from end-user companies to the analyst and consulting communities to academia. Many are practicing and former chief security officers from the private and public sectors.
"This year, we mixed things up a bit and added four new categories - driving even more submissions than the previous year," said Illena Armstrong, editor-in-chief, SC Magazine. "At the SC Awards gala, we look forward to celebrating the brave men and women battling a new era of cyber crime, such as Dome9 Security, where stealthy and persistent threats are stealing the daily headlines."
In its 15th year, the information security industry's most prestigious honor, the annual SC Awards US, showcase the best solutions, services and professionals, while recognizing achievement and technical excellence. SC Magazine distinguishes the achievements of the security professionals in the trenches, the innovations happening in the vendor and service provider communities, and the passionate work of government, commercial and nonprofits - all working to help improve global security. Winners of this year's SC Magazine Awards will be announced at a gala dinner and award ceremony to be held in San Francisco in February 2012.
"IT security pros turn to SC Magazine to make the right security decisions for their companies, and we are proud to be honored by this finalist award," said Dave Meizlik, Dome9 VP of Marketing and Business Development. "Dome9 is a first-of-its-kind cloud security management service with significant interest from enterprises, hosting providers and potential partners alike, due to its unique ability to centralize and automate cloud security across all platforms and hosting providers."
Dome9 Security is the only cloud security service to automate cloud firewall management for public and private clouds, as well as for dedicated and Virtual Private Servers (VPS), across various platforms. Dome9 closes a critical gap in today's cloud security - ports such as SSH, RDP, and MYSQL left open so administrators can connect to and manage their cloud servers. This common practice leaves servers vulnerable to hackers who need only guess the correct username and password or exploit any protocol vulnerability to gain unauthorized control of a server. Dome9 secures all administrative ports - for all servers and clouds - enabling secure access, on-demand. Its key innovation is the ability to provide secure access leasing - dynamically generated, time-based secure access to cloud servers - which enables customers to close all server administrative ports by default.
