Seqrite launches ‘Seqrite Hawkk’ to help enterprises secure their digital transformation journey

• Introduces ‘Seqrite HawkkEye’ a centralized security management platform in the first phase
• Plans to invest and launch more next-generation products and solutions under the ‘Hawkk’ Umbrella

Mumbai, 17^th of June 2021: Seqrite, a specialist provider of enterprise cybersecurity products and solutions has introduced ‘Seqrite Hawkk’, a premium suite of next-generation cybersecurity solutions aimed at empowering enterprises to secure their digital transformation journey. In the first phase, Seqrite Hawkk will offer – ‘Seqrite HawkkEye’ – a cloud based centralized security management platform that will empower enterprises to manage multiple security products from a single console. Seqrite will continue to invest and add more products under the Hawkk umbrella that will also mark the brand’s foray into endpoint detection and response (EDR), zero trust, data privacy and cloud-based network security products.

Seqrite is the enterprise arm of Quick Heal Technologies Limited, one of the leading providers of cybersecurity products and solutions for consumers, businesses and Government. In 2020 alone, Seqrite successfully thwarted over 13,000 cyber-attacks every hour, including ransomware (double extortion), APTs and targeted attacks, demonstrating the scale and sophistication of cyber-attacks.

According to the data from the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In), India witnessed a 300% rise in cyber-attacks in 2020. Rapid proliferation of endpoints, cloud apps, and smartphones with the growth of distributed workspaces and a diminishing enterprise perimeter has exposed organizations to newer threat vectors and risks. Security point products in play fail to consider the aggregated impact of a security alert and often employ a siloed approach to threat remediation. The growing threat landscape needs a centralized and integrated security and risk management approach.

‘Seqrite Hawkk’ has been designed to empower CISOs and IT leaders to get comprehensive visibility into their organization’s security posture, generate actionable insights, ensure compliance and boost their organization’s defense against the next wave of cyber-attacks across endpoints and mobile devices, enterprise data infrastructure, and enterprise applications. Powered by AI, Cloud and Patented technologies, the new range of solutions are easy to use, lightweight and can be deployed within minutes. The launch demonstrates Seqrite’s continuous commitment towards innovating and developing the most comprehensive and powerful suite of security solutions to simplify cybersecurity management.

Commenting on the launch, Sanjay Katkar, Joint Managing Director and Chief Technology Officer, Quick Heal Technologies said, “Threat actors have been constantly banking on new technologies to devise innovative attack strategies and target organizations across geographies. Data breaches and their impact on firms’ reputation have only increased in scale over the years. It is therefore crucial for leaders to up their cybersecurity posture and prevent compromise of sensitive enterprise data. Sensing the criticality of the current cybersecurity landscape, we have introduced Seqrite Hawkk to help enterprises boost their defense against malicious actors. We will continue to strengthen the Hawkk platform by adding more next-generation products that will mark our foray in the areas of EDR, zero trust, data privacy and cloud-based network security.”
