Comforte AG Announces New Partnership with Emphase IT

Wiesbaden, Germany - 08 July 2021 - Enterprise data security experts comforte AG have announced a new partnership with the IT services provider, Emphase IT GmbH Goeppingen, Germany.

The cybersecurity threat landscape is constantly evolving, and many organisations are struggling to keep up. Financial services providers, in particular, are facing rising challenges to comply with data privacy regulations in light of the mission-critical nature of the data they create and process. Working from home, cloud technology and the Internet of Things (IoT) offer many new opportunities and flexibility. However, they also present new attack vectors. Modern enterprises, both large and small, must look beyond traditional perimeter security and encryption to keep sensitive data safe.

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 addresses privacy and security compliance requirements that enterprise needs to meet today. Thanks to this new partnership, Emphase IT and comforte will enable even more organisations to leverage cloud technologies while keeping sensitive data safe.

Michael Deissner, CEO at comforte, commented, "We are delighted to team up with Emphase IT in the German market to combine our expertise in data security with the implementation and integration capabilities of Emphase IT. We look forward to working with them to help even more organisations protect the sensitive data that they have been entrusted with."

Felix Frederik Ball, Managing Director at Emphase IT, added, "We are proud to be at the side of a global leader in enterprise data security. In cooperation with comforte AG, we will be able to complement their premium software solutions with our wide experiences in hybrid and cloud-based IT solutions. Together we will help more organisations to achieve their digital goals – with safety."
