Netwrix has revealed an expansion of its partnership with Microsoft by integrating Microsoft Azure into its core cloud platform, aimed at enhancing Netwrix's growth and operational scalability. Azure will bolster the scalability, performance, and security of Netwrix's 1Secure™ platform, enabling organisations to gain improved visibility over sensitive data and streamline access management across hybrid and cloud settings.
This extended collaboration signifies a stronger alliance between Netwrix and Microsoft, as Azure will support crucial operational domains, including platform delivery, data processing, and security services, aiding Netwrix's global expansion efforts. Grady Summers, CEO of Netwrix, highlighted, "The identity and data security problem is getting harder faster than most organisations can keep up with. We’ve built Netwrix to give security teams the visibility and control they actually need — not just for cloud workloads, but across the hybrid complexity most enterprises live in. Azure lets us scale that without compromise."
Strategic use of Azure in security operations
Netwrix plans to utilize Azure to strengthen its core capabilities in data discovery
Netwrix plans to utilise Azure to strengthen its core capabilities in data discovery, identity governance, and risk management. This strategic approach helps businesses better identify sensitive data, comprehend access risks, and take necessary action to mitigate exposure across diverse environments. The initiative also complements organisations that are looking to align their security strategies with existing Microsoft Azure commitments.
Alistair Speirs, General Manager of Azure Global Infrastructure at Microsoft, remarked, "Organisations require a secure and scalable cloud platform to support their data and identity security needs. By building its 1Secure platform on Microsoft Azure, Netwrix helps customers improve visibility and control over access to sensitive data in complex environments, and protect against an expanding array of identity risks."
As the adoption of cloud and AI technologies grows, Netwrix provides flexible deployment options across hybrid environments to assist organisations in safeguarding their data, securing identities, and protecting AI technologies.
