WALLIX Becomes the New European Challenger in the North American Cybersecurity Market

WALLIX, the European Privileged Access Management (PAM) expert, opens their offices in Boston, Massachusetts, taking a new step in the implementation of their international development strategy announced in the “Ambition 21” Plan.  The American team will present the “Bastion”, WALLIX’s flagship access security solution, from March 4th to 8th in San Francisco at the RSA Conference, which brings together international experts in cyber security.

Strong growth and an international turnover up 53% in 2018, WALLIX continues to expand their geographic reach to achieve their goal of covering 80% of the global market by 2021. A team of ten distributed between a commercial office in Boston, MA and a service center in Montreal, Canada is now operational across the entire North American territory. In support of the overseas sales team, the service team makes possible a 24/7 support offering, ensuring service continuity around the world.

WALLIX’s PAM solution is the most efficient, simple, and cost-effective in terms of cost of ownership (TCO) in the market. Thanks to an easy user experience, WALLIX has positioned itself as one of the leaders in privileged access management for enterprises. By strengthening its presence in the United States, WALLIX will naturally address companies of all sizes, in particular those of medium size in the health, finance, industrial, and cloud sectors to assist in their digital transformation. By significantly accelerating the growth of their network of reseller and integrator partners, WALLIX now offers the North American market several solutions for the security and governance of privileged access and the protection of data, allowing organizations to approach with confidence the implementation of digital tools in compliance with the regulations in force. Through their European approach to management of sensitive and personal data management (GDPR Directive), WALLIX is the new alternative for North American companies wishing to strengthen their cybersecurity or develop their business activities in Europe and must comply with new regulations.

Today, more than 770 customers in more than 55 countries secure their access and data with WALLIX. Their solutions’ ease of implementation and use are the keys to WALLIX’s success, which is as responsive to the cybersecurity constraints of global multi-site groups as it is to medium-sized companies. Sales models (perpetual license or subscription) are scalable and adapted to the constraints of each organization, regardless of their sector of activity (health, finance, industry, retail, cloud service providers, or governmental organizations), their regulatory constraints, the management of their risks or the specificities of their domestic market.

By intensifying their international presence, WALLIX accelerates the momentum initiated in the “Ambition 21” plan to become a benchmark cybersecurity software publisher in the global market.
