Plurilock Security (PLUR) has announced that Plurilock DEFENDTM is now compatible with Amazon Workspaces.

Amazon WorkSpaces available through Amazon Web Servies (AWS) is a fully managed virtualization platform for Windows and Linux devices.

With a growing number of workforces shifting to remote environments and projections that 25 per cent of all professional jobs in North America will be remote by the end of 2022, more organizations are implementing virtual infrastructure. While these environments provide cost savings and address challenges associated with bring your own device (BYOD) situations, they can leave organizations vulnerable to credential compromise and unauthorized access to critical assets.

Plurilock DEFENDTM offers identity assurance and compromise detection, alerting IT security personnel to potential threats in real-time. The platform provides continuous identity detection and endpoint visibility in the background, as users work. This capability enables DEFEND to augment existing multi-factor authentication (MFA) and single sign-on (SSO) solutions while enhancing security awareness and reducing friction.

This enhanced functionality supports Amazon WorkSpaces, providing continuous identity assurance using behavioural biometrics. The platform can terminate the virtual session if high-risk activity or potential credential compromise is detected eliminating the opportunity for an attacker to access sensitive information in the network or detonate a malicious payload.

“In an increasingly remote world, zero trust identity technology is critical for securing workforces, including those operating in virtual environments,” said Ian L. Paterson, CEO of Plurilock. “Working with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Plurilock leverages a robust suite of services that drive innovation and agility. This has allowed us to design and build a secure, fault-tolerant, and highly available solution that delivers nonstop identify verification. This latest release demonstrates Plurilock’s success in executing on its stated strategy to acquire profitable cybersecurity companies with great customers and provide cutting-edge identity confirmation solutions that protect workforces.”

The release is available via Plurilock’s Early Access Program. All early access features will be available to select customers beginning in June, with general availability in the second half of 2022.

Plurilock offers world-class IT and cybersecurity solutions through its Solutions Division, paired with proprietary, AI-driven and cloud-friendly security through its Technology Division.

Plurilock Security Inc. (PLUR) opened trading at C$0.30 per share.
