SecureW2 – a comprehensive zero-trust passwordless security software provider – recently announced an $80 million investment from global software investor Insight Partners. This investment will accelerate market expansion, attract talent, and further drive the development and enhancement of the company’s passwordless zero-trust security platform.
SecureW2 enables organizations to utilize real-time security and compliance data from identity and management infrastructure (such as Azure, Okta, Intune, and Jamf) to dynamically automate and authorize access for Wi-Fi, Apps, VPN, and Desktop Logon. And SecureW2 software has enabled millions of users and devices to adopt modern certificate-driven passwordless security, enabling zero-trust. End users benefit from a frictionless user experience and time savings by utilizing digital certificates to power simplified access via the platform’s modern cloud-native architecture.
SecureW2 recently expanded its service offerings beyond passwordless certificate-based infrastructure access to application security access driven by the expansion of Microsoft’s Azure CBA’s (Certificate-based authentication) capabilities. And this follows on the heels of SecureW2 offering limited availability of certificate-based ACME device attestation with the Apple ecosystem earlier this year. For the first time, this enables customers to incorporate a new and increased level of trust provided by Apple for extended policy controls and zero-trust. General availability will be coming soon.
