BOULDER, CO--(Marketwired - Aug 16, 2017) - ManagedMethods, Inc ., a leading provider of cloud security solutions, today announced its expansion into the UK with the signing of Prevention Software, Ltd as the company's first UK-based Reseller. ManagedMethods also announced that through Prevention Software's efforts its Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) product has been deployed at a leading UK portfolio and risk management services provider, providing visibility and control of how their data is stored, accessed and shared in Microsoft Office 365 and OneDrive, as well as scanning email for malware and objectionable content.
The rapid adoption of cloud applications such as Office 365 and Google G Suite is fueling the need for cloud security; Forrester Research predicts the worldwide cloud security market will grow to 3.5 billion dollars in 2021. "Data protection issues in the UK such as email and document access, Shadow IT and especially the impending GDPR regulations are creating a huge opportunity for ManagedMethods' CASB solutions," said Charlie Sander, CEO of ManagedMethods. "We're pleased to partner with an experienced reseller like Prevention Software to meet the UK's growing demand for enterprise cloud security."
Cloud applications are the next step in business productivity, but traditional perimeter security solutions such as firewalls don't monitor activity in the cloud. Prevention's recent deployment of ManagedMethods secures the data of their customer's 100 employees using Office 365 and OneDrive, including protecting their Office 365 email. "Our customers are increasingly asking for help to protect their data as they move to the cloud," said Gary Clarkson, Director at Prevention Software. "ManagedMethods offers a cost-effective, easy-to-deploy solution that gives our clients the visibility and control they need. We look forward to working together to address this growing market opportunity."
