SEATTLE, WA — (Marketwired) — 10/08/15 — announces a partnership with , a leading provider of cloud infrastructure security for customer workloads running on Amazon Web Services (AWS), in addition to a new security service designed specifically for AWS customers.

“The cloud has proven to be a safe, cost-effective and convenient solution for large companies,” says Kris Bliesner, co-founder and CTO at 2nd Watch. “And yet there will always be a need for security monitoring and management, in particular as companies push more data and apps onto the cloud. Having worked with AWS for many years, 2nd Watch has a unique understanding of the service and its capabilities. We are excited to partner with Evident.io to help customers benefit from that experience.”
