BASINGSTOKE, UNITED KINGDOM and SAUSALITO, CA--(Marketwired - Feb 24, 2016) - CensorNet, the complete cloud security company, protecting over 4000 customers with more than 1.3 million users in 47 countries, has been invited to present at the first day of America's Growth Capital (AGC) 12th annual West Coast Information Security and Technology Growth Conference at 9:45 AM on Monday, February 29, 2016. During the presentation entitled, "Complete Cloud Security", CensorNet Chief Executive Officer, Ed Macnair, will discuss the need for a unified approach to cloud security.
CensorNet helps organizations meet the challenge of benefiting from all the advantages of cloud applications while minimizing security risks by giving them greater visibility and control over internet access and the use of cloud applications across all devices, regardless of whether users are in-office or mobile. The company recently acquired SMS PASSCODE, a multi-factor authentication vendor, to integrate SMS PASSCODE's adaptive multi-factor authentication technology into its cloud-based Unified Security Solution, which brings together email and web security with Cloud Application Control.
"With the growth of cloud applications use and an increasingly mobile workforce using multiple devices, CIOs are under immense pressure to encourage productivity and protect sensitive data at the same time. Enterprises need visibility of the complete, bigger security picture. Our unified security platform combines email, web and cloud application control, and soon to include integrated adaptive multifactor authentication, will give enterprises complete control and visibility over its security environment through one single pane of glass", said Ed Macnair, CEO of CensorNet.
