Blumira Expands Its Cloud Security Coverage With AWS Security Monitoring

Blumira’s Comprehensive and Easy-to-Use Detection & Response Platform Earns AWS Partner Status

ANN ARBOR, Mich. – May 17, 2021 – Blumira, a leading cybersecurity provider of automated threat detection and response technology for organizations migrating to cloud infrastructure, today announced it has achieved Amazon Web Services (AWS) Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Partner Status and has launched AWS security monitoring into its cloud security platform. As a certified AWS Partner, Blumira’s offering has been tested and verified to meet AWS’s high industry standards for security, reliability, and operational excellence.

Leveraging AWS services, Blumira’s customers can benefit from expanded cloud coverage with greater visibility and control over the security of their entire technology stack. Blumira’s proprietary technology monitors attack patterns, analyzes billions of events for malicious activity, and surfaces only the contextual data in order to reduce the noise, time, and manual effort spent on investigation. This enables small IT and security teams to quickly respond to indicators of an attack in progress such as account changes, potential malware infection, abnormal cloud infrastructure behavior, and more. Blumira’s security monitoring of Amazon GuardDuty, AWS CloudTrail, and Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) Flow Logs helps users easily identify and remediate risks like publicly exposed Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets that can result in data leakage and compliance violations.

“Information security has hit an inflection point of high complexity, low value to customers,” Blumira CTO Matt Warner said. “Blumira is dedicated to changing that paradigm by continuing to innovate on the latest cloud security monitoring and response technology. By focusing on threatening behaviors or misconfigurations across AWS environments, such as S3 buckets, we’re able to immediately bring actionable security to customers.”

Blumira’s customers can benefit from its cloud security monitoring and reporting solution that integrates broadly across both on-premises and cloud services including Microsoft Office 365, Azure and  Google Workplace (formerly G Suite). Blumira is designed to protect against cloud threats including attacker login attempts, data leakage, device malware, and other malicious behavior that could result in ransomware infection or a data breach. The platform is designed to be deployed in hours, not months – accelerating time to security five times faster than the average SIEM provider.*

“Organizations of all sizes struggle with securing a hybrid environment of on-premises and cloud applications, services and infrastructure. As cloud migration ramped up to support remote work and IT modernization, there has been an incredible demand for affordable, scalable and easy-to-use solutions that can be quickly deployed,” said Blumira’s VP of product, Jim Simpson. “We’re excited to join the AWS Partner Network and to be able to offer even more cloud security capabilities that address the unique multi-cloud needs of our customers.”
