Aviatrix, a cloud network security company, has developed two new integrations for Microsoft security customers that will enhance threat visibility and streamline secure access across diverse cloud and network environments. Both integrations are being showcased at Microsoft Ignite in Chicago, USA, this week.
The Aviatrix plug-in for Microsoft Copilot for Security uses capabilities from the Aviatrix Distributed Cloud Firewall to provide real-time threat intelligence to help businesses reduce risk, decrease security costs and better understand their existing threat landscapes. Security engineers and firewall operators can then use the large language models in Microsoft Copilot for Security to understand the vulnerabilities in their environment. Aviatrix will then provide action-oriented recommendations.
“Today’s security landscape requires solutions that are faster and more intelligent than potential threats,” said Doug Merritt, CEO of Aviatrix. “It also requires solutions that are cloud neutral so protecting business-critical assets isn’t limited by infrastructure provider. We’re excited to leverage the power of the entire Microsoft security ecosystem to help customers discover vulnerabilities, decrease costs and gain deep visibility into their ecosystem.”
Aviatrix Security Edge is a new integration for Microsoft’s Security Service Edge (SSE) Solution that enables Microsoft Entra users to connect to any network server, workstation or service in any major cloud or private network with secure access to Microsoft Global Secure Access (GSA). It also provides secure access to the internet, Microsoft 365 and software-as-a-service solutions.
Users can use Aviatrix Secure Edge for Microsoft’s SSE Solution directly within the Entra Admin Portal under Microsoft GSA.
“Today’s enterprises face unique challenges when it comes to securing their networks,” said Chris McHenry, senior vice president of product management at Aviatrix. “The Microsoft Entra suite of products is trusted by the world’s largest global enterprises. The powerful combination of Aviatrix and Microsoft’s SSE Solution ensures that applications and workloads – irrespective of cloud environment or network configuration – can enjoy fully secure, always-on access to Microsoft GSA.”
