Growing demand for hybrid IT and Zero Trust has resulted in over 110% annual increase in sales of Pulse Secure’s ‘Advanced Access Suites’. Additionally, the company reports it has continued achievements in new business, product offerings, customer service and corporate growth.
Enterprises are taking advantage of workforce mobility and Internet of Everything connectivity while managing rising security risks and data protection obligations. According to a 2020 Zero Trust Progress Report, 40% of IT organisations surveyed will increase their access management budgets through 2020, with more than half planning to move Zero Trust access capabilities to a hybrid IT (on-premises and cloud) implementation.
“Growth in our secure access suites validates that organisations see value in consolidating disjointed tools and disparate policies in favour of more integrated platforms designed for hybrid IT, the results of which fortify their security posture and deliver demonstrable productivity, visibility and compliance benefits,” said Sudhakar Ramakrishna, CEO of Pulse Secure. “We remain focused on providing the easiest, most comprehensive portfolio of secure access solutions that allow enterprises and service providers the greatest flexibility, efficacy and scale as they advance their digital transformation and cloud computing interests.”

The integrated Suite provides easy access for end users and single-pane-of-glass management for administrators. Organisations can centrally orchestrate Zero Trust policy to enable compliant access to applications, resources and services no matter where they reside; on-premises, in private cloud or public cloud environments.
