“We are extremely honored to be featured in Aite-Novarica’s prestigious Quarterly Fintech Spotlight report,” says Mark L.

Key Value Proposition and Market Challenges Addressed:

Zerify’s use of cutting-edge technology uniquely positions it to protect data in the era of remote work and increasing cyber threats. The following capabilities make Zerify a standout in the market:

• Zero-trust architecture: Zerify eliminates an architectural gap in zero-trust deployments by requiring every user to authenticate video conferencing sessions.
• Unique authentication options: Zerify Meet provides out-of-band and dial-in authentication.
• Desktop lockdown: The Zerify agent locks down the camera, microphones, speakers, keyboards, and clipboards, preventing hacker and malware takeovers.
• Meeting management: Zerify Meet provides comprehensive meeting management and reporting comparable to leading video conferencing platforms.

“One of most important points that is also listed in the Spotlight report is that traditional antivirus and endpoint solutions are designed to block known and documented threats. However, they leave the door open to new and emerging threats. Our Zerify Defender seals this gap and adds a layer of zero-trust protection, guarding businesses against both, known and unknown threats,” says Kay.
