Aura Business Collaborates with Climb to Address Unmanaged Device Security Challenges

Aura Business Collaborates with Climb for Enhanced Device Security

Aura Business, the commercial arm of the renowned online safety and wellbeing company Aura, has announced a strategic partnership with Climb, a global technology distributor renowned for its focus on security and data management solutions. This collaboration aims to equip managed service providers (MSPs) with advanced security solutions tailored for businesses that navigate the growing complexities of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) environments.

In today’s work culture, personal devices are becoming integral to how employees carry out their duties. However, the increased reliance on these devices presents significant security challenges. Despite MSPs playing a vital role in safeguarding business data across multiple access points, many still face considerable vulnerabilities since a large portion of employees utilize their personal gadgets for work-related tasks.

Jason Coville, the head of MSP business at Aura, highlighted the importance of this partnership, stating that security gaps are prevalent, with many employees working on personal devices that could be potentially compromised. According to Omdia, a notable market analysis firm, while 65% of MSPs are witnessing a significant demand for BYOD management, only 24% actively monitor these employee-owned devices. Alarmingly, over half of these service providers reported having experienced a security incident related to BYOD in the past two years.

The solutions introduced through this partnership allow MSPs to take active measures to protect not just corporate data but also the identities of employees and customers, ensuring comprehensive security coverage. The Aura Business platform is designed with simplicity in mind, enabling easy deployment without the necessity of accessing personal data or managing the devices themselves. By extending protection over various devices, including those that typically elude standard security measures, this approach ensures a safer working environment.

Tim Popovich, COO of Climb, stated, "The security landscape is evolving, and unmanaged devices continue to pose significant risks. By introducing Aura Business into our offerings, we empower our partners with the tools needed to safeguard both employees and essential company assets across diverse technological ecosystems."

With immediate access to Aura Business offerings via the Climb marketplace, partners are urged to reach out to their Climb representatives for more information. Businesses interested in minimizing identity-related risks while improving their security frameworks can also contact Aura directly at [email protected] or visit their official site.

With a complete suite of tools, Aura aims to empower users at every online touchpoint, ensuring a secure experience across all environments, be it at home, work, or in schools.
