It is particularly beneficial for organizations with large volumes of data that require regular synchronization and operate in highly regulated industries such as financial services, healthcare, and pharmaceuticals.
Abdul Altamimi, CTO at RestorePoint.AI, highlighted the importance of the partnership, stating, "Enforcing data security and privacy controls over distributed analytics and AI applications deployed in hybrid cloud and multi-cloud environments poses significant challenges for mid-market organizations. This partnership with Alkira allows us to provide our customers with the policy-based access control and micro-segmentation capabilities to securely scale their businesses in the cloud.”
