Our take
The BYOD (bring your own device) trend enables employees of organizations to use their own technology to access privileged and sensitive company information and applications. While essential for many organizations -especially with the increasingly remote working culture- this approach can pose security issues.
Hypori is a company that aims to help organizations address these issues, with a security and management solution that protects corporate apps and data on personal mobile devices. It ensures that data is only stored in a cloud-based virtual environment, and isn't transferred or stored on a physical endpoint device.
Hypori works with clients that include the US Department of Defense and corporate enterprises in finance, healthcare, education, and software. It is seen an industry leader in BYOD security, has raised significant investment, and is enjoying a period of growth. Funds will go towards solidifying this leadership whilst capitalizing on the rise of remote working and demand for Zero Trust Architecture technologies.
