Blue Coat Korea, a security company specializing in cloud and APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) response, announced on the 27th that it has significantly enhanced the cloud security capabilities and services of its security platform and established a partner ecosystem for cloud security.

Blue Coat focuses on supporting companies in transitioning to the cloud more easily and safely by providing powerful solutions optimized for resolving enterprise security risks and compliance issues that hinder cloud adoption.



Accordingly, Blue Coat has completed a global security platform that provides visibility, control, and data-level security for cloud, on-premises, and hybrid cloud environments by integrating the core Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) capabilities of Elastica, which it acquired last year.

Blue Coat provides the 'Blue Coat Security Platform,' designed to enable customers to strategically and securely expand their corporate networks in line with the trend of redefining enterprise IT.

Blue Coat also protects and controls all data and users handled by enterprises by supplying an open platform that integrates major security and compliance frameworks to present a new security model required by cloud-generation enterprises.Helps you do it.

Blue Coat has added new solutions to its security platform to effectively address the major security threats experienced by enterprises today. By integrating AppFeed, a shadow IT intelligence feature that provides real-time data feeds, into its Secure Web Gateway product family along with the Elastica Audit subscription service, Blue Coat has enabled companies to gain visibility into the status and risks of shadow IT while eliminating risks by enforcing robust cloud access security policies. Additionally, comprehensive security and governance control solutions for Microsoft Office 365, a widely used enterprise cloud application, have been added.

Michael Fey, President and COO of Blue Coat, stated, “The cloud offers various benefits while presenting significant security challenges. This is because the surface through which attacks can penetrate expands, encompassing devices, networks, and applications. As a leader in web security, Blue Coat aims to act as a massive protective barrier between the cloud and users by providing install-based solutions that address these issues based on a unique architecture. We plan to support enterprises in transitioning to the cloud more securely, enabling them to gain visibility into their entire IT infrastructure and establish new management strategies.”

Roger Murff, Executive Vice President of Business Development and Technology Partnerships at Box, said, “For companies adopting cloud technology to secure productivity and efficient collaboration, security is the most important factor.” “Blue Coat’s partner program provides new value to BOX. We expect that more companies will be able to collaborate seamlessly while establishing new security and control mechanisms for their valuable data,” he said.
