OptimumTIC, a leading company in technological solutions, has announced its new partnership with Zero Networks, an emerging cybersecurity startup from the United States that is revolutionizing the sector with innovative micro-segmentation and automated network protection solutions. This agreement, presented on October 15, 2024 during a special event, reaffirms OptimumTIC’s commitment to security and advanced technology for its clients.
OptimumTIC’s CEO and founder, Rosa Ortuño, took the opportunity to review the company’s trajectory, founded in 2009, and highlight the achievements reached, from certifications to the multidisciplinary talent of its team. The collaboration with Zero Networks was announced by Núria Tehàs, the company’s Networking lead technician, who emphasized how this alliance will strengthen OptimumTIC’s cybersecurity offering with cutting-edge technology.
Cutting-edge network security technology
Zero Networks has established itself as a reference in the Zero Trust model, with a platform that limits access to essential resources through network and identity segmentation. As explained by Albert Estevez, OptimumTIC’s advisor on emerging technologies, this technology not only reinforces security but also optimizes companies’ operations by reducing the risk of attacks such as ransomware and lateral movement.
Among the solutions that Zero Networks brings to the market, the following stand out:
Network Segmentation: Through multi-factor authentication-based access control, this technology divides the network into isolated segments, blocking any attempt to spread threats without affecting operations.
Identity Segmentation: Limits access to the necessary resources for each user, applying customized security policies and “just-in-time” MFA, protecting human and service accounts from potential attacks.
Secure Remote Access: A superior alternative to traditional VPNs, as it guarantees robust security without exposing the network to the internet and avoiding brute force attacks.
Key advantages for customers
Collaborating with Zero Networks brings numerous benefits to OptimumTIC’s customers, including:
Advanced protection against lateral movements: Zero Networks technology prevents the spread of intrusions within the network, reducing the impact of potential attacks.
Simplified regulatory compliance: By automating processes and operating without agents, it facilitates compliance with cybersecurity regulations.
Scalability and flexibility: Zero Networks solutions adapt to both on-premises and cloud environments, allowing customers to grow without the need for significant investments.
A strategic cybersecurity alliance
For OptimumTIC, partnering with Zero Networks is a natural evolution towards a comprehensive security model. The company identifies with Zero Networks’ principles: security as a priority, intelligent automation, and agile implementation. “While many cybersecurity solutions require long implementation periods, Zero Networks guarantees visible results in less than 30 days,” pointed out Rosa Ortuño, highlighting the speed and effectiveness of this technology.
The live demonstration at the event, led by Emanuel Bianchi from Zero Networks, showcased the potential of these micro-segmentation and secure remote access solutions, illustrating how they can be deployed quickly and effectively.
A secure and scalable future
With this alliance, OptimumTIC reaffirms its mission to offer advanced and secure technological solutions that support the growth of its customers, facilitating regulatory compliance and adapting to their changing needs. This new step strengthens OptimumTIC’s position as a leader in cybersecurity, providing its customers with state-of-the-art protection in an increasingly demanding environment.
