Consist Software Solutions, a provider of IT security and compliance solutions in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Spain and Israel, has signed a cooperation agreement with Lieberman Software Corporation, a US-based company providing first-class IT security tools.
The agreement paves the way for Lieberman Software to expand its broad US customer base into the European market, while Consist gains access to a world-leading suite of security and compliance tools. The first step of the cooperation will concentrate on Enterprise Random Password Manager™ (ERPM), Lieberman Software’s Privileged Identity Management solution, which secures and manages super-user passwords on systems across the network including all kinds of servers, routers, switches etc. Recent compliance requirements e.g. in financial institutions call for such tools but solutions are rarely found today. Consist will both provide the Lieberman Software solution, and all related services supporting a successful implementation and operation.
“Companies regard the adherence of compliance specifications more and more as a strategic sphere of activity. We notice a raising need of companies for powerful compliance solutions and accompanying consulting and services. So, we are happy about enlarging our offer across compliance and security by starting this cooperation”, says Martin Lochte-Holtgreven, Managing Director of Consist Software Solutions in Germany.
“The need to meet regulatory compliance requirements is what drives most organizations toward implementing security solutions,“ said Calum MacLeod, VP of EMEA for Lieberman Software. “ERPM helps booth public and private enterprises resolve the all too common security and regulatory compliance problem caused by shared and default privileged account passwords. With their extensive experience in the IT services industry, Consist Software Solutions is the ideal partner to extend our privileged identity management technology to new European markets.“
