Open Systems, a secure access service edge (SASE) pioneer supporting enterprises in their digital transformation journey, on Wednesday announced its acquisition of Born in the Cloud, a specialist in cybersecurity threat detection, prevention and response.
This addition bolsters Open Systems’ ability to serve the large and expanding market for Azure Sentinel services with enterprises worldwide.
The acquisition of Born in the Cloud builds on the recent introduction of Open Systems’ new cloud-native MDR service, which incorporates the Microsoft Azure Sentinel security information and event management (SIEM) solution. This MDR service complements the networking capabilities of Open Systems’ SASE solution and its SASE-delivered SD-WAN, providing exceptional security that supports enterprises’ digital transformations and their increasing use of mobile devices, edge computing and the cloud. Enterprises that use Azure and Sentinel will find implementing the service to be a straightforward process.
Born in the Cloud works with enterprises around the world and specializes in onboarding and management services that enable customers to maximize their Azure and Sentinel implementations. Its engineers are experts in cybersecurity, Microsoft Security Stack, cloud automation and AI, data science and DevOps.

The timing of this deal is perfect as COVID-19 has forced enterprises to accelerate their digital transformation and driven the need for cybersecurity solutions like our Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services, which complement our Managed SD-WAN services to deliver a complete SASE offering.
