Comforte AG and bizcon AG Join Forces to Deliver Data-centric Security

Wiesbaden, Germany - 25 February 2021 - comforte AG, a global leader in enterprise data security, has announced a new partnership with the Munich based IT consultancy firm, bizcon AG.

More and more organizations are moving to the cloud with hybrid and multi-cloud strategies, which underscores the need for cloud-native applications. Dev-ops teams need to be as agile as possible to innovate, however traditional security architectures are often incompatible with cloud-native operational requirements, automation, languages, and orchestration frameworks such as Kubernetes.

Comforte's data security platform is both hybrid IT and cloud-native, with full integration into auto-scaling, self-healing, metrics, logging, operation, and control via APIs in modern stacks and CI/CD pipelines. Data-centric security is the way forward for cloud security and thanks to this new partnership, bizcon and comforte will enable even more organizations to leverage cloud technology while keeping sensitive data safe.

Michael Deissner, CEO at comforte commented, “we are delighted to announce our new partnership with bizcon AG. Organizations throughout Europe trust bizcon to deliver the best of data-centric security solutions, so we are proud to be a part of their world class vendor portfolio. We are now even better poised to carry on our mission of helping organizations to protect the sensitive data that they have been entrusted with.”

For more than 20 years comforte has been ensuring growth, confidence, and security in the global digital economy. The combination of comfortes’ products and bizcon’s consulting expertise is key to securing our customers’ digital success."
