FROM INTEL SECURITY FOCUS 2015 IN LAS VEGAS, NV. – October 28, 2015: HyTrust Inc., the Cloud Security Automation Company, has just been recognized as “Most Innovative” in the cloud category at Intel Security Focus 2015 in Las Vegas, NV, as part of its “Partner of the Year” awards. This recognition comes on the heels of HyTrust winning the “Best of VMworld” award in September for Security, Compliance and Virtualization.

“HyTrust is honored to be recognized for our innovations enabling organizations to virtualize and adopt cloud while meeting their security and compliance requirements,” said President and Co-Founder, Eric Chiu. “We know as well as anyone the challenges associated with securing cloud and virtualized infrastructures, and our goal is to continue to build on the trust we’ve established with Intel, its partners, and most of all our customers.”

According to Intel Security, the conference is designed to enable security experts to “learn about the newest and most innovative ways to ward off advanced cyber attacks.” Attendees become informed about strategies and solutions that enable them to “maintain the highest standards of security while reducing costs, streamlining processes, and driving efficiencies in the daily administration of their networks and systems.”

HyTrust has received numerous awards annually since it launched for its contributions to the field of enterprise security in cloud and virtual environments. Earlier this year, the Company was named one of CRN Magazine’s 20 Coolest Cloud Security Vendors. HyTrust was also named Most Innovative at the 2014 McAfee FOCUS conference, and, in the same year, claimed the Intel Technology Innovation Award. It has been named cloud and virtualization innovator by a wide range of organizations including SC Magazine, the RSA Conference and SC World Congress.

Chiu continued: “While we’re proud to receive this type of recognition, our focus and goal remains to bring innovative solutions that offer best-in-class enterprise security without hindering productivity, for customers to protect their cloud and virtualized assets.”
