Yotta, Virsec partner for runtime protection cybersecurity service

Yotta has announced a partnership with Virsec, which will allow enterprises in India that are hosted at Yotta data centers, captive on-premises data centers, or public clouds to gain access to Virsec’s patented Deterministic Protection Platform (DPP). It is the only security solution that provides precise protection against zero-day, ransomware, and evolving cyber-attacks on production workloads. DPP precisely maps what an application or software is supposed to do and stops it in milliseconds if it behaves abnormally. 

“Virsec is backed by a solid team, and we are very impressed with their award-winning true runtime protection service that protects while the application is running, and not after the attack has been executed. Their unique approach to secure the workload from the inside is commendable, and we are delighted to partner with them to offer their world-class security service to enterprises globally,” says Sunil Gupta, Co-Founder & CEO at Yotta.

Explaining Virsec’s unique protection capabilities, Dave Furneaux, CEO, Virsec, says, “In order to secure an application while it’s running, our patented technology maps precisely to what the software is intended to do and will stop anything that it’s not intended to do – perceived as an attack threat – within milliseconds, when it launches. As a result, our customers have seen up to 70% OpEx savings and increased time to focus on business innovation versus the security hassle of monitoring suspicious events, hunting out threats, investigating results, and reacting to thousands of false alerts daily. With this landmark partnership with Yotta – we are pleased to serve a very fast-growing segment of enterprise IT customers.”

As per Rajesh Garg, CDO & Head of Cybersecurity at Yotta, “With a growing digital footprint, an enterprises’ exposure to cyber threats is on the rise. Today, customers demand cutting-edge security services that allow them to sleep in peace. With this partnership, we have expanded our security services portfolio – that will add tremendous value to organisations.”

“We’re thrilled to expand our reach globally to help secure India’s most powerful enterprises through our largest data center partnership yet,” says Bobby Gupta, SVP & MD, International Business at Virsec. “Yotta is not only the biggest but also one of the most trusted data centers in India. Virsec is proud to partner with Yotta to ensure India’s data sovereignty.”
