Verizon Enterprise has selected Vidder's PrecisionAccess as a core part of the Solutions Software Defined Perimeter (SDP) offering.
Vidder technology provisions connectivity at the application layer, as opposed to using traditional network-based access controls. Servers are hidden from users until trust is established. Attack surfaces are significantly reduced with a single layer of enforcement deployed seamlessly across physical, virtual and cloud infrastructures.
Managed security services for global enterprises need to merge with network services to address the demands of customized, highly complex and costly communications and application systems. While the adoption of mobile devices and public clouds has become the norm for today’s enterprises, they bring new demands not addressed by traditional security solutions.
Verizon’s new SDP service, powered by Vidder technology, helps enterprises prevent credential theft, malware propagation and server exploitation attacks across data center and cloud environments. Additionally, enterprises benefit from the agility and economics of complementary network services from Verizon, such as SD-WAN and Secure Cloud Interconnect (SCI).
The Cloud Security Alliance tested Vidder’s SDP software over the course of five public and private hackathons. It survived 15 billion hacks from 104 different countries and there were no breaches at any level.

SDP helps reduce these risks by making critical applications and resources invisible to everyone until the end users and devices are authenticated and authorized.
Mark Hoover, CEO, Vidder
The integration of Vidder technology with Verizon’s managed security and networking services creates a unified networking and security solution for global enterprises. The Verizon offering will help enterprises to increase agility, manage costs and contain risks.
