Glasswall, a recently appointed Microsoft Gold ISV partner, is collaborating with Microsoft on a cyber threat protection solution which leverages Azure and Office 365. Called d-FIRST, the technology prevents file-borne cyber-attacks.

The company has also begun working on further integration of its Glasswall FileTrust products with other O365 applications including OneDrive and SharePoint.

“Microsoft Azure is a trusted partner in enterprise, and we are delighted to align Glasswall’s security technology with Microsoft through this collaboration,” said Greg Sim, chief executive officer of Glasswall Solutions. “Glasswall offers organisations industry-leading protection from file-based threats and unique threat intelligence on organisational risk, so the relationship between these technologies is a perfect fit.”

“We are excited to be working with Glasswall and their unique, paradigm-shifting approach to one of the biggest problems facing organisations,” said Kirk Arthur, director of Worldwide Industry Solutions, Public Safety and Justice at Microsoft. “It further underscores Microsoft's commitment to deliver world class innovation to our customers and deliver unparalleled data security for both our public and private sector clients.”
