An expansive partner network across the SAARC market ensures every business across the region will have access to a universal identity security platform that discovers and protects human and non-human identities across cloud and on prem environments

BANGALORE, India, July 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Silverfort, the leading identity security company, announced that it is expanding its global operations to bring its Unified Identity Security Platform to India and neighboring South Asian countries. After seeing customer growth and success in the Australian and Singapore markets, Silverfort expanded its Global Partner Program to meet the growing need for a unified identity protection framework in the various Indian states and territories.

“Innovation and productivity are byproducts of the shift to the cloud, but so are complexity and increased identity risks. Identity teams need a solution that unifies identity security into a single solution that simultaneously encourages productivity and enhances security,” said Stuart Wilson, VP of Sales, APAC at Silverfort. “We’ve seen huge demand for Silverfort’s solutions across South Asia and India. With boots on the ground, and by growing our partner network in this region, we’ll be able to meet customers where they are and help organizations build more resilient cybersecurity programs.”

Identity security is one of the most significant challenges security and IT leaders face today. Most enterprises use a combination of an on-prem identity management tool (i.e., Active Directory) and a mix of several cloud identity providers (IdPs) to manage and secure identities. But each tool operates in a silo, leaving gaps and blind spots that resulted in a striking 83% of organizations reporting identity-related data breaches. A universal and unified approach to identity security is no longer a nice-to-have but a must-have for organizations looking for more resilient and scalable identity security programs. That’s why Silverfort moved to a 100% channel business and continuously partners with organizations that are hyper-focused on offering customers visibility and protection for all their identities, whether on-prem, in the cloud, human or non-human.

Identity is often a shared responsibility across multiple departments with different goals. Already overworked and understaffed, identity and security teams are stuck using a patchwork network of tools to manage and secure identity across complex hybrid environments, many applications, and thousands of people. Silverfort’s Unified Identity Security Platform protects every identity in an environment, including those that previously went unprotected. Designed not to interrupt a business’s daily operations or disrupt day-to-day users, Silverfort extends protection to critical resources such as non-human identities, command line tools, and OT infrastructure. Unlike other vendors, it’s easy to deploy, proxyless, and can secure identities in the cloud or on-prem. Silverfort breaks down identity barriers and silos, providing a unified identity security layer that helps organizations keep pace with today’s complex threat environment.

Silverfort’s Unified Identity Security Platform:

Discovers, protects, and monitors service accounts (non-human identities) without modifying themExtends existing MFA solution to ‘unprotectable’ systems (legacy applications, command-line interfaces, OT systems, File Share, etc.)Connects legacy applications into modern cloud IAM (including Azure AD Conditional Access)Detects and responds to identity-based attacks in real-time, including account takeover, ransomware propagation, and lateral movement

To lead the go-to-market for India and the SAARC region, Silverfort has appointed Abhinav Gupta as the regional lead to drive local business, given his extensive experience in IT and cybersecurity. As an IIM alumnus and in his previous roles with global cybersecurity brands, Gupta shall work closely with Indian enterprises to expand awareness about identity security and drive Silverfort’s mission.

January 11, 2025

Docking Drawer, the leader in in-drawer outlet solutions, is set to showcase its newly configured Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Las Vegas this February 2025.

SAN RAMON, Calif., Jan. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Docking Drawer’s Unwavering Dedication to Safety

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality.”

When it comes to safety, no one in the industry matches the focus and innovation of Docking Drawer. Their Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages bring a unique, forward-thinking solution to an often-overlooked area in kitchen design. These safety outlets automatically de-energize an appliance garage power source when the cabinet door is closed, ensuring that appliances are safely powered off when contained inside the cabinet.

Docking Drawer is also the only company dedicated to creating in-cabinet electrical solutions that meet the strict code requirements of the Canadian marketplace. Their Safety Interlock Outlets are designed to make in-cabinet electricity compliant in Canada while offering consumers in all regions an additional layer of safety for in-cabinet power.

Advanced Limit Switch Technology

Docking Drawer’s Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages utilize an advanced Limit Switch system, designed to work seamlessly with power outlets concealed by a cabinet door. This intuitive feature detects when the cabinet door is closed, instantly cutting power to the connected outlet and all powered appliances.

Now Compatible with Any Appliance Garage Door

An updated Limit Switch feature now offers different switch options to accommodate all appliance garage door types, including traditional cabinet doors, pocket door setups, and more. The newly designed Limit Switch now offers two functions to choose from:

Power Off When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is ideal for traditional cabinet doors, where closing the door depresses the switch to cut power safely.Power On When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is perfect for pocket doors, where the door being pushed back upon opening activates the switch, turning the power on.

Customizable Connectivity

The flexibility of Docking Drawer’s solutions also allows for connecting multiple limit switches to a single safety outlet or vice versa, offering customization options to adapt to the unique demands of any project.

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality,” states Scott Dickey, founder of Docking Drawer. “Our Safety Interlock Outlets represent the culmination of our dedication to innovation and empowering homeowners and professionals with safer, more organized spaces—even beyond the kitchen and bathroom.”

His Excellency Khalid Al-Mudaifer, the Vice-Minister for Mining Affairs of Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, emphasizes that, “The meeting is an important step towards achieving sustainable development in the minerals sector globally. It is an ideal platform for delivering solutions, developing legislation on best practices in the field of sustainable mining, and exploring ways to invest in mining projects to achieve economic and social development in producing countries.”

Importantly, the outcomes of the Ministerial Roundtable are not confined to the event itself but form an ongoing, year-round program. Regional Coordination Groups will continue to drive the implementation of key initiatives.

“FMF is emerging as the largest global hub for minerals collaboration and action – no other platform brings together government ministers and senior industry leaders at this scale.” Al-Mudaifer concluded.
