Vidder Now Protects Applications from Compromised Devices and Backdoors

New Capabilities Enhance Access Control Security While Reducing Complexity

CAMPBELL, Calif. – June 13, 2017 – Vidder, Inc., the pioneer and market leader in Trusted Access Control, today announced the addition of endpoint trust assessment to its PrecisionAccess solution.

With trust assessment, PrecisionAccess allows only trusted clients to access enterprise applications – isolating compromised devices from accessing them – a first for access control solutions. PrecisionAccess already protects applications and servers from unauthorized users, unregistered devices, and attackers with stolen credentials, whether the apps are internal or cloud-based.

Vidder’s compromised device detection augments existing endpoint security controls to defeat attacks against its encrypted application tunnels. The result is a broader role for access control solutions in organizations that have distributed apps and users and depend upon multiple point security solutions to protect increasingly complex networks.

“Vidder’s PrecisionAccess has delivered effective security against sophisticated attacks, including nation-sponsored attacks,” said Bob Flores, Partner at Cognitio Corporation and former CTO of the Central Intelligence Agency. “Now, with the addition of trust assessment, Vidder defeats external attack vectors against protected enterprise applications.”

The unique PrecisionAccess architecture operates at the connection and application layers, as opposed to using traditional network-based controls. The result is a lower cost and more effective approach to cyber security that doesn’t require costly infrastructure upgrades or painful cutovers. Attack surfaces are significantly reduced with a single layer of enforcement deployed seamlessly across physical, virtual and cloud infrastructures.

“Vidder’s PrecisionAccess is helping us to enhance security and user experience while reducing costs by moving away from traditional hardware investment,” said Mo Ahddoud, CISO of SGN, a gas distribution company that distributes natural and green gas to nearly 6 million homes and businesses. “Vidder’s software defined perimeter technology is a key part of our strategy of limiting dependence upon the traditional perimeter model and reducing the network footprint with all of its related costs and compromises.”

The addition of trust assessment is offered as a free upgrade for all existing customers and is part of the standard pricing for new customers.

“In today’s network nothing can be trusted,” said Mark Hoover, Vidder CEO. “Vidder re-invented access control in order to provide enterprises with a tool they can use to regain trust, security, and control without impeding their path to the agility and economics associated with cloud infrastructure and services. For Vidder, adding trust assessment to PrecisionAccess is part of our natural progression and we will continue to innovate so that enterprises can worry less about security and more about the business of their business.”
