Aqua Security Becomes First Partner to Deliver Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) to Adlumin Customers

Adlumin’s enterprise-grade security operations platform now offers customers a more comprehensive approach to cloud native security — from code to cloud and back.

Aqua Security, the pioneer in cloud native security and Adlumin have announced a partnership and integration. As the first cloud native application protection platform (CNAPP) partner available to Adlumin customers, Aqua delivers a comprehensive approach to accelerate innovation and protect the entire development lifecycle from code to cloud and back.

“As organizations of all sizes transition more of their business to the cloud, data stored in the cloud is becoming a gold mine for hackers,” said Robert Johnston, founder and CEO of Adlumin. “With growing cloud estates, many small and mid-sized organizations simply do not have the expertise or resources to effectively protect them. This partnership between Adlumin and Aqua Security streamlines cloud security, making it a seamless part of security operations for enterprises of any size.”

Adlumin’s patented, cloud-native Security Operations Platform is feature-rich enough for organizations of any size to operate on their own, yet built specifically to amplify the skills and capabilities of managed service providers. In addition, Adlumin’s MDR services can offer 24×7 human insights, threat hunting and support, while ensuring the highest level of security across complex cloud native environments, to complement an MSP and/or organization’s security team, or provide fully-managed security operations on their behalf.

“Collaborating with respected, high-growth security companies like Adlumin, creates straightforward pathways for customers to seamlessly consume complementary technologies, resulting in a holistic approach to cloud security,” said Jeannette Lee Heung, Senior director of global channel and alliances at Aqua. “Through this partnership, Adlumin customers can more easily procure, deploy and benefit from Aqua’s unified CNAPP, and confidently handle the unique security challenges associated with modern cloud-native applications.”

Adlumin integrates with products and services organizations to help them streamline security and give them the visibility they need to quickly detect and respond to security threats. Lightstream, a fully integrated cloud, security, and network connectivity services business specializing in building and managing secure cloud environments and network solutions, is a joint partner that helps streamline cloud security with Aqua via Adlumin’s Platform.

“Embracing ‘shift left’ methodology, we are able to proactively identify and shield against security threats across the development lifecycle with Aqua, from dev to cloud and back,” said Joe Vadakkan, chief revenue officer at Lightstream. “Typically with a CNAPP, interoperability among systems and developers demands advanced security skills or a security team with enhanced development experience in order to get the most out of the solution. To address this complexity, cloud security services organizations like Lightstream help to establish a robust foundation within the customer’s environment with their DevSecOps experts. This foundation enables full adoption of the Aqua Platform, and seamlessly integrates with development tools and security solutions like Adlumin for runtime.”

Adlumin Unveils Warranty and Cyber Insurance Offerings that Make Coverage Attainable and Affordable for Previously Unprotected Small and Mid-Sized Organizations

Adlumin Protection Plus Suite receives Cysurance Certification to Provide Low Friction Path to Complementary Financial Protection

WASHINGTON – September 12, 2023Adlumin, the security operations platform and managed detection and response (MDR) service provider keeping mid-market organizations secure, today announced a new warranty program that provides up to $500,000 of financial protection at no cost to customers who qualify. The warranty comes as a result of a third-party testing and certification program by Cysurance, a next-generation risk mitigation company that insures, warranties and certifies security solutions. The Cysurance Certification Program enables Adlumin to offer customers significant discounts on cyber insurance policies.

Together these new offerings provide a low-friction path to attaining complementary financial protection for small and mid-sized organizations who often struggle to find coverage that fits their needs. The Adlumin Protect Warranty enables organizations to qualify for cyber insurance at a lower premium, while also providing fast reimbursement in the event of an incident, and financial resources to support operations before an organization meets its cyber insurance deductible. For organizations covered by Adlumin Protect Warranty, approved payments or agreed remediation will begin 48 hours after verification of a cybersecurity incident.

“Skyrocketing cyber claims, growing security complexity and exploding insurance premiums are pricing small to mid-market organizations out of insurance protection, leaving them exposed to crippling financial impact of cyberattacks,” said Mark Sangster, cybersecurity author and Adlumin Chief of Strategy. “We founded Adlumin to give these organizations the enterprise-grade resources they need and deserve, and these new financial protections build another layer on top of the security operations platform, managed detection and response services, and incident response services we’re already providing. Partnering with an industry leader like Cysurance is one more way we’re bringing top-tier resources to organizations of all sizes.”

Organizations that subscribe to the Adlumin Protection Plus Suite automatically qualify for $500,000 in warranty coverage at no charge, and are eligible for significantly discounted cyber insurance premiums from Cysurance.

“We are in a challenging landscape for small and midsized organizations. Security spending, breaches, and insurance premiums are on the rise, but coverage is becoming more limited and difficult to obtain. Our mission at Cysurance is to verify the proficiency of security operations and expedite the path to coverage,” said Kirsten Bay, CEO at Cysurance. “Establishing certification and coverage for cybersecurity providers, like Adlumin brings a new level of sophistication and assurance to organizations of all sizes. Cysurance-certified providers meet the most stringent requirements demanded by underwriters of risks associated with hardware, software, infrastructure, and security services. That is why we can offer Adlumin customers a streamlined path to insurance coverage and discounted policies.”

Adlumin Protect is a low-friction certification warranty designed to safeguard Adlumin customers against business continuity and insure against loss, protecting their revenue and recovery. It builds on the company’s vision to provide a single platform that equips organizations with full visibility and the tools required to combat cybersecurity threats.

Adlumin Makes Cybersecurity Incident Response Attainable and Affordable for Small and Mid-Sized Organizations with Launch of New Service

Innovative Pricing Model Enables Organizations to Add Full IR Support for as Little as $300 Per Month

WASHINGTON – August 7, 2023Adlumin, the security operations platform and managed detection and response (MDR) service provider keeping mid-market organizations secure, today launched a subscription-based incident response (IR) offering to drastically reduce the cost of securing organizations of all sizes. This new IR service is available to organizations that use Adlumin’s Security Operations Platform on their own or with MDR services, and through bundled pricing, can offer midsized organizations the benefit of a 24×7 expert response team for as little as $300 per month.

The cost of a data breach has increased 15% over the past three years, now averaging $4.45 million per incident, according to IBM’s 2023 Cost of a Data Breach Report. However, larger organizations are seeing the cost of a data breach drop, while it’s rising significantly for smaller organizations. For example, the average cost of a data breach fell by 2.5% year-over-year to $5.24 million for organizations with more than 25,000 employees, while rising 13.4% to $3.31 million for organizations with less than 500 employees.

The ability to respond quickly and effectively to an incident can have a drastic effect on how severely it impacts an organization – and larger organizations are much more prepared. In fact, 88% of large enterprises have an incident response team in place, a luxury that only a third (36%) of their small and mid-size counterparts can claim, according to a recent survey from CyberRisk Alliance Business Intelligence.

Adlumin’s Incident Response service provides organizations of all sizes with the expertise necessary to understand the full scope of a breach, remove the threat, and provide actions to strengthen security. It extends the robust security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR) capabilities of Adlumin’s platform with highly skilled and certified professionals who have extensive experience in cybersecurity incident response.

“Small and midsized organizations are at a huge disadvantage because they have to defend themselves against the same threats as the world’s largest enterprises, but have far from the same resources. Adlumin was founded to level the playing field – first through our platform that makes security cost efficient, easy to integrate and simple to use, then by adding MDR services for organizations that need it, and now through extending our services with Incident Response,” said Robert Johnston, founder and CEO of Adlumin. “The data speaks for itself – there’s a massive disparity between large and small organizations when it comes to cybersecurity preparedness and response capabilities, and we’re here to fix that.”

In addition to a delivering 24×7 incident response within one hour, and up to 80 hours of support with an annual subscription, Adlumin provides comprehensive forensics and investigation, advanced threat intelligence and proactive threat hunting to its Incident Response customers.

Offering incident response to organizations already protected by its security operations platform enables the Adlumin team to respond swiftly and effectively. With security operations data ingested from across an organization’s environment and stored remotely in Adlumin’s secure cloud, it enables the incident response team to quickly piece together the complete picture of an attack with full confidence that attackers haven’t altered data to cover their tracks.

Through one platform and one license, Adlumin provides organizations with everything they need for enterprise-grade security, regardless of the size of their environment. Adlumin’s cloud-based platform can be installed and illuminating threats in 90-minutes or less.

Adlumin Expands Leadership Team with Promotion of Dan McQuade to Chief Technology Officer

As an Established Leader within Adlumin, McQuade Brings More Than 10 Years of Experience Building and Scaling Technology Companies to His New Role

WASHINGTON – April 25, 2023Adlumin, the security operations platform and managed detection and response (MDR) service provider keeping mid-market organizations secure, today announced the executive promotion of Dan McQuade to Chief Technology Officer. As a key member of Adlumin’s senior leadership team, McQuade will oversee the development and expansion of features and capabilities within the Adlumin Security Operations Platform.

“As a founding member of our engineering team, Dan has led Adlumin through some of its most important periods of technological growth,” said Robert Johnston, CEO and co-founder of Adlumin. “Dan has been a key contributor to building Adlumin and executing our vision to give mid-market organizations, and the service providers they rely on, a platform that includes everything they need for sophisticated cybersecurity operations. As CTO, Dan will play an even larger role in steering Adlumin’s future and the technology that provides a critical foundation for our MDR team and our trusted partners. He’s proven that he’s the right person for the job.”

With one platform and one license, Adlumin gives organizations everything they need for comprehensive security, including SIEM, vulnerability scanning, threat intelligence, UEBA threat hunting, honeypots, automated incident response and forensics, darknet exposure monitoring, compliance reporting and monitoring, and more. Adlumin’s patented, cloud-native Security Operations Platform is feature-rich enough for organizations to operate on their own yet explicitly built to amplify the skills and capabilities of managed service providers. Adlumin customers can use the platform on their own, partner with managed service providers, and utilize Adlumin’s MDR services for 24×7 human insights, threat hunting, and trusted support.

“When I joined Adlumin more than five years ago, I could sense we were creating something extraordinary,” said Dan McQuade. “Middle market organizations, such as banks, manufacturers, legal firms, healthcare institutions, schools, and various state and local governments are regularly targeted by cybercriminals and exposed to the same threats as large corporations, but they’ve struggled to effectively counter these threats due to limited resources and technology. We are now providing them with accessible tools that they can either use independently or in collaboration with the experts on our managed security services team. Every morning I wake up excited to work with the amazing team that we’ve assembled as we continue to grow and evolve the Adlumin platform.”

McQuade most recently served as Vice President of Engineering at Adlumin. He managed the deployment of core functionality within Adlumin’s Security Operations Platform and oversaw all aspects of the company’s cloud infrastructure. Among his many contributions to the platform, McQuade wrote the Adlumin Syslog collector application, developed the platform’s threat intelligence functionality, and created its highly-scalable multi-tenant architecture. Dan has worked in the technology/startup space for more than a decade and has been with Adlumin since 2018. He holds a BA from Georgetown University and is currently pursuing an MS in Information Security Engineering from The SANS Technology Institute.

The Adlumin platform is purpose-built to extend the skills and capabilities of service providers, and its multi-tenancy has been a key component of achieving that mission. It gives service providers unmatched visibility across their customer base so they can monitor emerging threats and take action without the need to traverse different environments.

Adlumin announced and will demo the most recent enhancements to its security operations platform at RSA Conference 2023, April 24-27, 2023, in San Francisco, California.

“On the heels of announcing significant enhancements to our security operations platform at RSA conference, we’re excited to receive this prestigious and coveted cybersecurity award,” said Robert Johnston, CEO of Adlumin. “As an independent cybersecurity news and information provider, receiving this award from Cyber Defense Magazine is a testament to the hard work our team continues to invest in delivering a platform and services that are bringing enterprise-grade security to organizations of all sizes.”

This is Cyber Defense Magazine’s eleventh year of honoring infosec innovators from around the globe. Global InfoSec Awards are judged by CISSP, FMDHS, and CEH certified security professionals who vote based on their independent review of company-submitted materials for each nomination, information including but not limited to data sheets, white papers, and product literature, and other market variables.

“Adlumin embodies three major features we judges look for to become winners: understanding tomorrow’s threats, today, providing a cost-effective solution and innovating in unexpected ways that can help mitigate cyber risk and get one step ahead of the next breach,” said Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine.

Adlumin will demonstrate its platform’s capabilities and new features at RSA Conference 2023, April 24-27, 2023, in San Francisco, California.
