Strengthening Mobile Security and Compliance
In a significant move towards enhancing mobile security for contractors in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB), Summit 7 has formed a strategic partnership with Hypori. Renowned for its work in cybersecurity compliance, Summit 7 is on a mission to help its clients meet DFARS and CMMC requirements effectively.
A New Era for Compliance
The partnership aims to provide organizations within the DIB with the means to leverage mobile and virtual workspaces, ensuring compliance with critical regulations while also facilitating access to Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) data. With this collaboration, data privacy remains a priority as the adoption of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) practices is set to accelerate without exposing sensitive data on personal devices.
With clients already in the beta phase, the initiative supports several crucial goals for contractors, including:
- - Securing access to enterprise apps and CUI: Users can maintain safe, remote access using any mobile device.
- - Exclusion from CMMC Level 2 assessment scope: This crucial benefit allows for smoother compliance efforts.
- - Cost reduction: Businesses can significantly lower expenses associated with managing corporate devices like phone plans and hardware refreshes.
- - Mobility without security compromise: Contractors can work flexibly without risking their sensitive data.
Scott Edwards, CEO of Summit 7, emphasized the importance of this partnership, stating, “At Summit 7, we're focused on helping contractors meet compliance requirements in the most secure and efficient way possible. Hypori enables secure mobile access without added risk or complexity—eliminating the need to carry multiple devices when accessing multiple Microsoft 365 tenants.”
Wayne Lewandowski, Hypori’s Chief Revenue Officer, echoed this sentiment, expressing enthusiasm for supporting Summit 7’s mission and making secure mobile access more efficient for contractors in the defense sector.
Hypori's Innovative Technology
Hypori’s state-of-the-art mobile access platform ensures secure virtual access to enterprise applications and data from various mobile devices. The platform is designed with privacy in mind, processing nothing in a way that would conflict with users' data rights. This innovative architecture is built on a zero-trust framework, which meets rigorous security certifications, thus appealing to a wide range of sectors, from defense to healthcare.
By merging Hypori's technology with Summit 7's compliance knowledge, defense contractors can navigate the complexities of regulatory standards with much greater ease.
Given the increasing demand for secure mobile working environments, this partnership underscores both companies’ commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions. It promises a secure, compliant future tailored for the ever-evolving needs of contractors within the DIB.
In summary, the alliance between Summit 7 and Hypori not only addresses the immediate challenges faced by defense contractors but also sets the stage for future innovations in mobile security and compliance. With an improved approach to working securely in a mobile world, both organizations are poised to make significant contributions to the industry, enhancing operational efficiency and safeguarding sensitive information.
