ShardSecure™, the data security company whose Microshard™ technology helps organizations eliminate the sensitivity of data to accelerate cloud adoption, announced today they have joined the Cyber Alliance to Defend our Healthcare. The Cyber Alliance was created by C5 Capital to protect against the unprecedented rise in malicious cyber attacks on healthcare organizations during the global pandemic.
“As healthcare systems, providers and laboratories search for a Covid-19 vaccine and rapidly adjust to new norms such as remote healthcare models, the resulting influx in the creation, transmission, and storage of highly sensitive data in the cloud poses its own unique challenges,” explained ShardSecure CEO and Co-founder, Bob Lam. “ShardSecure is pleased to be working with the Cyber Alliance to help healthcare organizations eliminate the sensitivity of this data through Microsharding, empowering healthcare leaders to focus on their core mission knowing data is reliably obscured and that its locations remain unknown to malicious attackers.”
