Cyway, specializing in identity-centric and cloud security, announced that it has signed a distribution agreement with Netskope, “the leading Security Cloud” to expand its footprint in the Middle East and Africa.

The cloud is transforming your organization. It is changing how you work as everything is becoming more intuitive, connected, open, and collaborative, and that change is rippling across SaaS, IaaS, and web environments. This creates new challenges and risks that legacy security solutions cannot address. You need security that can protect your data and users, wherever they are.

Netskope Security Cloud provides unrivalled visibility and real-time data and threat protection when accessing cloud services, websites, and private apps from anywhere, on any device. Only Netskope understands the cloud and takes a data-centric approach that empowers security teams with the right balance of protection and speed they need to secure their digital transformation journey. From data created and exposed in the cloud to data going to unmanaged cloud apps and personal devices, Netskope protects data and users everywhere.

Koshy Oommen, Director of Operations at Cyway commented “Security Technologies are gaining immense popularity as remote working is set as a new norm. Cloud-native applications require different rules and techniques for protection. He also added Secure access service edge (SASE) technology will take preference eliminating traditional perimeter appliance security and legacy solutions. Cyway looks at this Partnership as an excellent opportunity to address cloud security transformational challenges from today’s dissolving perimeter”

Arie de Groot, Sr Director of Channels EMEA at Netskope commented that Netskope is rapidly expanding its worldwide customer base. “Security is moving to the Cloud. The complexity of perimeter security, the increase of Cloud usage and the ever-growing number of Remote and Mobile Workers are the main drivers of our growth. The Cloud cannot be secured with legacy network security methods. It requires a cloud-based platform hosted in a worldwide private network of datacentres, always offering the fastest connections. With the opening of our datacentre in the Middle East and our cooperation with Cyway we see a tremendous opportunity to build a network of partners embracing our next generation solutions and to become the leading SASE provider in The Middle East.”
