ContraForce transforms how managed security services are delivered by allowing service providers worldwide to jumpstart a new line of business, improve their margins and deliver better client outcomes.
2024 has been a year of rapid growth for ContraForce, both here in the United States and around the world, including new distribution partnerships in Asia-Pacific and the UK and Ireland. Our goal is to host instances of our platform near service providers and their clients.
We’re excited to announce that the ContraForce Security Service Delivery Platform will soon be available in more Azure regions. ContraForce will be generally available in the Australia, Canada and UK regions in January 2025; in addition to our existing instance in the United States.
To pick their hosting region, service providers will simply select from the list of supported regions in a dropdown menu to choose their hosting location for each client.
Our new hosting locations come with some advantages for services providers:
Improved Latency and Performance: Hosting services closer to where your clients are physically located reduces latency because data travels a shorter distance. Service providers in Australia, Canada, and the UK will experience faster response times and improved performance, which is critical for security operations that rely on real-time data processing.
Data Residency and Compliance: With data residency requirements becoming increasingly important in many industries, having the platform available in these regions helps ensure that data in Azure is stored locally. This compliance with local regulations is crucial for businesses that handle sensitive information and are subject to specific governmental data protection regulations. As always, ContraForce itself does not store client data.
Multi-region Support: The availability of multiple regions could also be helpful for service providers looking to meet the needs of organizations operating in multiple jurisdictions.
