AUSTIN, Texas, May 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Portnox, a leading provider of cloud-native, zero trust access control solutions, is proud to announce its selection as a finalist in the prestigious SC Awards Europe. The company has been recognized on the Best Authentication Technology category shortlist for its commitment to innovation and excellence in cybersecurity.

The Portnox Cloud allows organizations to control who can authenticate to their enterprise network and provides granular detail on every user's access layer, location, device type, and more. Portnox's cloud RADIUS service – part of the Portnox Cloud platform and its primary authentication solution - is provided through a cloud-based cluster of fully redundant RADIUS servers and is used for authentication of users accessing the enterprise network.

The Portnox Cloud is fully cloud-native and requires no on-site hardware or maintenance whatsoever. No other network access control (NAC) product on the market delivers network authentication, access control, endpoint risk posture assessment and remediation in this manner.

As a cloud service, the Portnox Cloud eliminates the need for the capacity planning of on-premises software or appliances. It also eliminates the need to complete on-going security updates, expand capacity, or upgrade appliances to meet future growth needs. With the Portnox Cloud, you never have to worry about software or hardware end-of-life, or costly, complex upgrades requiring hours and days of work and a never-ending checklist of to-dos. The Portnox Cloud is always running the most up-to-date version with the latest features and capabilities.

"We are honored to be recognized as a finalist in the SC Awards Europe," said Denny LeCompte, CEO at Portnox. "This acknowledgment reaffirms our relentless pursuit of excellence in delivering robust authentication and access control technology that strengthens data protection, improves endpoint and network security, streamlines user experiences, and achieves compliance with ease."

Being named a finalist underscores Portnox's unwavering dedication to providing cutting-edge solutions that empower businesses to strengthen their security posture against evolving cyber threats.
