CyberKnight to distribute ZTNA solution from Appgate

To address customer challenges related to secure network access, CyberKnight has signed an agreement with Appgate, the secure access company, to distribute Appgate SDP, an industry-leading Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) solution, in the Middle East.

Appgate SDP offers scalable, secure access across cloud, legacy, hybrid and IoT environments to enable digital transformation, reduce risk and improve user experience for its customers. Appgate SDP’s comprehensive, enterprise-grade feature set makes resources invisible, strengthens access controls and simplifies network security.

“Current remote access methods, like VPNs, are dated. Furthermore, attacks are becoming more advanced and multi-faceted, so organizations increasingly need a multi-layered approach to combat them. We are excited to join forces with Appgate to offer Middle East customers with a market-leading ZTNA solution that provides dynamic, identity-centric, context-aware precision access, reducing the attack surface by making resources invisible while enabling business agility at scale,” commented Avinash Advani, Founder & CEO at CyberKnight.

Appgate was recently named a Leader in The Forrester New Wave^T: Zero Trust Network Access, Q3 2021. Appgate received a differentiated rating, the highest possible, in six criteria, including deployment flexibility, non-web and legacy apps, ecosystem integration, client support, connector capabilities and product vision.

“Cyberthreats are adapting to the dynamic way people work, making it imperative for organizations to implement a Zero Trust security strategy with ZTNA as a foundational building block,” said Fiona Doak, Director of Channel Sales EMEA. “Whether your resources are in the cloud, on-premises or both, Appgate SDP protects globally-distributed users, devices and hybrid IT to future-proof your security posture. We are thrilled to partner with CyberKnight and leverage their network of strategic partners and security expertise to support UAE organizations on their Zero Trust journey,” Doak added.
