Obsidian Security Expands Presence with the Launch of their Sydney Data Centre
Obsidian Security Expands Presence in Australia with New Data Center
Obsidian Security, a leading cybersecurity company, has announced the opening of a new data center in Sydney, Australia. This expansion is a significant step in the company's commitment to meeting the evolving needs of local businesses and upholding data sovereignty for Australian customers.
The new data center, built on Amazon Web Services (AWS), is designed to protect SaaS needs and meet data governance requirements. It allows customers to safeguard their entire SaaS ecosystem without data leaving Australia, addressing the growing concern among businesses for ensuring their SaaS data remains within their region.
The safety and locality of SaaS data has become an urgent necessity due to the sensitive nature of the data. Traditional on-premise security solutions are falling short of securing SaaS applications, making it crucial for companies like Obsidian Security to step up and provide robust, local solutions.
Obsidian Security's platform combines application posture with identity security to offer complete SaaS security. This expansion ensures that Australian businesses can benefit from this comprehensive security solution.
The co-founder of Obsidian Security, Wade Baker, was previously the CISO of Telstra in Australia. He is joined by Glenn Chisholm, another Australian co-founder and former Telstra CISO, who brings strong ties to the local market. Obsidian Security has also expanded local headcount across technical account management, DevOps, quality assurance, and cybersecurity research fields.
Obsidian Security's investment in the Asia-Pacific region is driven by the importance local businesses place on security. The company has established an Australian Technical Centre of Excellence and has long-standing ASX-listed customers in Australia.
This expansion further upholds data sovereignty for Australian customers, as businesses increasingly focus on ensuring their data remains within their region. Obsidian Security's new data center does not compromise on security standards, ensuring that Australian businesses can trust their data with the company.
The new data center in Sydney is a testament to Obsidian Security's commitment to meeting the evolving needs of local businesses and providing them with the highest level of SaaS security.
