AppGuard, Inc. of New York, NY announced on August 20 its collaboration with San Jose, CA-based HPE to provide its technologies, including the AppGuard Enterprise for servers, to the Integrated Processor Capacity Services x86 (IPCS-X). The IPCS-X is an initiative organized by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and led by HPE to provide the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) a comprehensive, integrated hardware and software stack to bolster its technology efforts.
“We are excited to work with
Hewlett Packard Enterprise to offer advanced cyber stack services to federal
and defense agencies. AppGuard continues to gain momentum and play a vital role
in enterprise-level cybersecurity – allowing patching teams to be proactive,
SOCs to be more agile, and reduce the human footprint through pre-exploit
prevention at the kernel level,” says Neal Conlon, senior vice president
of sales and business development at AppGuard.
AppGuard’s patented inheritance
and isolation technology prevent malware from executing without utilizing
valuable system resources or requiring continuous monitoring or cloud
connection for updates. With powerful, patented cybersecurity technology,
AppGuard protects against attacks by automatically isolating system processes
from dynamic code injection. Security controls apply to all of an application’s
processes, eliminating the need for policy updates. With an ultra-light
footprint, AppGuard allows for normal application or utility operation, while
simultaneously blocking known and unknown malicious actions. The solution
doesn’t require attack detection, cumbersome scanning, or disruptive updates.
“HPE is committed to
significantly advancing security environments for the DoD and its technology
initiatives with the world’s most secure industry standard servers, which
extends an exclusive security root of trust capability to protect data from the
beginning of a server’s supply chain journey through the end of its lifecycle.
By collaborating with AppGuard to leverage its cybersecurity products and
expertise in our IPCS-X proposal, we are further enhancing security for DISA in
the Host Based Security Services (HBSS) arena with an efficient and
battle-tested solution,” said Joseph Ayers, vice president and general
manager, U.S. Public Sector, HPE.
AppGuard’s innovative approach makes it an ideal partner for HPE, which offers industry-leading security solutions. HPE focuses on making IT environments more efficient, productive, and secure, enabling fast, flexible responses to a rapidly changing competitive landscape. HPE enables organizations to act quickly on ideas by delivering infrastructure that is easily composed and recomposed to meet shifting demands, so they can lead in today’s marketplace of disruptive innovation.
