Industry: Cloud native
From supporting startups to leading the way with large, global enterprises, DNX works with its clients to design and implement customized cloud modernisation solutions. Its mission is to democratize cloud technology, making it accessible to any business in a simple, secure and easy to maintain way.
DNX enables companies to transform the past by preparing, evolving and designing their applications for the future. Their Cloud Security is handled in partnership with Plerion.
Challenge
Cybersecurity has to be top of mind these days given the heightened awareness of cybercrime among businesses of all shapes and sizes, particularly for DNX, which strives for excellence in everything they do. Being ahead of the curve when it comes to cloud security is paramount for enhancing their offering and they wanted to achieve full Cloud Security visibility for their clients.
Solution
While DNX has several security capabilities, there was an opportunity to enhance its features, leading to a partnership with Plerion, which created a dedicated offering for its managed services.
Quite simply, Plerion stepped in to provide a simple, off-the-shelf solution to accelerate cybersecurity for its users. DNX’s CEO Helder Klemp says the partnership with Plerion will greatly enhance cybersecurity capabilities for all DNX customers.
“One such customer example is a digital native health tech who we support with full AWS managed services. Before utilizing Plerion’s Cloud Security Platform, they faced security challenges and relied solely on basic AWS security tooling and only had partial visibility into their risks" He continued: “However, with Plerion's cloud security platform, we found a comprehensive solution to address the businesses compliance needs, particularly targeting ISO and HIPAA. Additionally, using workload scanning provided peace of mind to our technical team, knowing that their cloud environment is secure.”
Klemp says that Plerion’s unique capabilities sets them apart in the market. The seamless integration of Plerion’s tools meant DNX could create a dedicated offering for its managed services, leading to increased velocity in customer assessments, increasing his business model to include the managed security offering, which has in turn boosted their revenue.
“The partnership with Plerion has exceeded our expectations, helping us solve tough security challenges for our customers. Plerion de-risks our customer's security needs, which allows us to be more assertive and with a deeper report to facilitate the sales process.”
How it works
One of DNX’s customers is a startup in the healthcare sector. DNX offers full AWS managed services, and Plerion helps DNX fill the compliance gaps, while also using workload scanning to bring peace of mind to the technical team.
The switch made a huge difference. Before Plerion, the startup was relying on basic AWS security tooling. Now, the world is its oyster as it grows beyond a startup amid surging demand for DNX’s services.
Plerion advantage
Many cloud security solutions operate in isolation and without collective context, providing attackers with an advantage when seeking exploitable points of weakness in customer cloud environments. These technology silos result in alert fatigue, inefficiencies within teams and low ROI against expectations.
But Plerion provides an all-in-one cloud security platform that supports workloads across AWS, Microsoft Azure and GCP.
A brighter future
DNX says the future is bright, with plenty of scope for growth with Plerion by its side. “We are remarkably close to the Plerion team. They’re inspirational, leading us to scale the partnership to create a dedicated GTM to co-sell with AWS. Together, we are confident in providing our customers' security
needs, and we are excited about the growth opportunities this collaboration will bring” Klemp says.
Plerion helps you identify the true risks in your cloud environment and remediate what actually matters.
