Bitdefender and Scale Computing have joined forces to address security issues in edge and private cloud systems. Their collaborative solution combines Scale’s self-healing virtual infrastructure with Bitdefender’s endpoint protection tools, creating a comprehensive defense mechanism for companies with distributed systems and minimal on-site technical support.
The collaboration between Bitdefender and Scale Computing aims to enhance security measures in edge and private cloud environments. By integrating Scale’s self-repairing virtual infrastructure with Bitdefender’s endpoint protection tools, the joint solution offers a seamless way to safeguard workloads and data in mixed IT setups. This partnership is particularly beneficial for organizations dealing with distributed systems and limited IT resources, where managing both infrastructure and cybersecurity can be challenging.
Scale’s HyperCore platform and Bitdefender’s GravityZone software work in tandem, utilizing a lightweight agent or central scanning tool to defend against threats, manage incidents, and oversee multiple machines efficiently. This integration simplifies the workload for service providers and IT teams stretched thin, enabling them to secure distributed infrastructure effectively.
Jeff Ready, CEO and co-founder of Scale Computing, highlighted the partnership’s significance in adapting to the rapidly expanding tech landscape. The combined technology of both companies aims to alleviate the burden on IT teams and service providers striving to navigate complex hybrid and edge computing environments.
Dan Russell, a senior director at Bitdefender, emphasized the importance of scalable and high-performance security solutions amidst the rise of hybrid and edge computing. The collaboration with Scale Computing provides enterprise-grade protection that seamlessly secures distributed infrastructure at the core and edge, without hindering innovation.
The joint setup offers built-in protection for private cloud systems, applications across various locations, and virtual desktops. It incorporates advanced threat detection and response capabilities, streamlining deployment on Scale’s infrastructure through Bitdefender’s scanning tools. By combining these platforms, IT teams can automate upkeep tasks and fortify systems against cyber threats like ransomware.
