“We are pleased to be working with CarbonHelix to expand their world class cyber security coverage to include the new level of protection that BlackRidge Identity-based network security provides,” said Bob Graham, CEO of BlackRidge Technology. “CarbonHelix’s expertise in deployment and managed services of IBM security offerings is a perfect fit for our recently announced support for IBM z Systems and hybrid cloud environments.”

“We believe the partnership with BlackRidge Technology will provide significant value and allow us to jointly enable even greater visibility and control into high value cyber security assets,” said Mark Precious, President of CarbonHelix. This will increase the level of security protection that our customers demand including providing enhanced visibility and greater insight for IBM z Systems. In addition, with BlackRidge we can extend network security controls to Cloud environments to provide micro-segmentation along with high value cloaking defense capabilities.”
