NEW YORK, NEW YORK - UHY Advisors NY, Inc. (“UHY”), has announced that the firm has formed a strategic alliance with the UK-based Glasswall Solutions Limited (“Glasswall”), a technology company that has developed an industry-leading solution providing unique protection against file-based cyber threats. This alliance further augments UHY’s industry-leading Risk Advisory Services practice.
Glasswall’s technology breaks the detection paradigm of signature-based defenses. Rather than looking for ‘known bad’, Glasswall allows only ‘known good’ in business documents, using its patent-protected d-FIRST™ methodology of deep-file inspection, remediation and sanitization. Unlike signature-based technologies, Glasswall is able to eliminate all types of document attacks and zero-day malware, providing unparalleled Advance Threat Protection allied with detailed Threat Intelligence data.
As part of the alliance, UHY will provide professional services, including interfacing with clients, managing the implementation of the technology, and act as the point of contact for clients after installation of the product.
Glasswall’s team of professionals will conduct an initial risk assessment of an enterprise’s current security posture then develop the production design based on the client’s infrastructure and operational needs. They will work closely with UHY to outline and ultimately initiate the rollout of the updated security system.
“The Glasswall solution is unique and will greatly benefit any organization looking to improve their cybersecurity framework,” said Warren Zafrin, a leader in the Risk Advisory Services practice at UHY. “This software delivers value to all areas of the business: Security, compliance, audit, governance and risk, and will help our clients on a global scale, including both private enterprises across industries as well as government and governmental institutions.”
“We are excited to form an alliance with an innovative cybersecurity firm and offer clients state of the art comprehensive cybersecurity services,” said Michael Mahoney, CEO of UHY Advisors NY, Inc. “This offering will benefit clients as we advise them on how to mitigate emerging cyber threats from both a strategic and logistical perspective.”
