Adoption of Microsoft Azure Infrastructure as a core platform supports long-term growth and aligns with evolving cloud and security requirements.
FRISCO, Texas, May 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Netwrix, a recognized leader in identity and data security, today announced it is expanding its collaboration with Microsoft by adopting Microsoft Azure as a core cloud platform to support the company's continued growth and scale.
Netwrix will use Azure to enhance the scalability, performance, and security of its 1Secure™ platform, helping organizations improve visibility into sensitive data and manage access across hybrid and cloud environments.
This collaboration reflects a deeper alignment between Netwrix and Microsoft, with Azure supporting key areas of the company's operations, including platform delivery, data processing, and security services as Netwrix continues to expand its global footprint.
"The identity and data security problem is getting harder faster than most organizations can keep up with," said Grady Summers, CEO of Netwrix. "We've built Netwrix to give security teams the visibility and control they actually need — not just for cloud workloads, but across the hybrid complexity most enterprises live in. Azure lets us scale that without compromise."
Netwrix will leverage Azure to support core capabilities including data discovery, identity governance, and risk visibility. This enables organizations to more effectively identify sensitive data, understand access risk, and take action to reduce exposure across increasingly distributed environments. This approach also supports organizations looking to align their security investments with existing Microsoft Azure commitments.
"Organizations require a secure and scalable cloud platform to support their data and identity security needs," said Alistair Speirs, General Manager of Azure Global Infrastructure at Microsoft. "By building its 1Secure platform on Microsoft Azure, Netwrix helps customers improve visibility and control over access to sensitive data in complex environments, and protect against an expanding array of identity risks."
As organizations continue to adopt cloud and AI technologies, Netwrix helps organizations of all sizes protect data, secure identities, and safeguard AI with flexible deployment options that span hybrid environments.
