Industry veteran Alan Cohen joins Silverfort as strategic advisor
Summary
He is a frequent industry speaker and commentator whose work appears regularly in The New York Times, Forbes, Fortune, Recode, ReadWrite and Pando Daily. Silverfort’s non-intrusive MFA platform enables organizations to secure access to any sensitive resource, including systems that couldn’t be protected until today, without requiring agents, proxies or local configurations. “We are truly lucky to have access to Alan’s experience and mentorship as we continue to expand our market presence through strategic partnerships and accelerate the company’s growth.” As network perimeters continue to disappear due to cloud migration, IoT, Bring-Your-Own-Device policies and more, current MFA solutions are becoming ineffective and cannot handle the diversity, complexity and dynamic nature of the new corporate environment. Silverfort’s agentless architecture and holistic approach offer a big advantage over mainstream MFA solutions as they enable organizations to extend protection to any sensitive system or resource, including systems that were considered “unprotectable” until today, such as homegrown and proprietary business applications, regulated systems and data (e.g. financial, healthcare), IT infrastructure (e.g. hypervisors, DCs and network equipment), administrative access (e.g. PAM, RDP, SSH), file shares, databases, SCADA, IoT devices and more. By enabling strong authentication to proprietary systems and applications, Silverfort also helps companies migrate them securely and easily to the cloud.
