Microsoft Azure customers worldwide now gain access to Madarson IT to take advantage of the scalability, reliability, and agility of Azure to drive application development and shape business strategies.
Silver Spring, Maryland, USA — September 17, 2024 — Madarson IT, a leading provider of cloud and security solutions, today announced the availability of hardened (base and advanced) virtual servers and desktops in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, an online store providing applications and services for use on Azure. Madarson IT customers can now take advantage of the productive and trusted Azure cloud platform, with streamlined deployment and management.
Madarson IT’s new offering features an Azure-based virtual machine pre-configured with Cloud OS images that are hardened and optimized for security to help address industry security compliance benchmarks.
Cybersecurity is a top priority for organizations worldwide, and implementing the base hardened images can help organizations establish a baseline level of security and reduce their risk exposure to common cyber threats. However, it’s important to note that these benchmarks should be considered as a starting point, and organizations may need to customize them based on their specific security requirements and risk profile.
Implementing the advanced hardened images can help organizations further improve their security posture and better protect against more advanced and persistent threats.
Key features:
- This hardened image map to many established standards and regulatory frameworks, including the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), the ISO 27000 series of standards, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and others.
- Hardening is a process that helps protect against unauthorized access, denial of service, and other cyberthreats by limiting potential weaknesses that make systems vulnerable to cyberattacks.
“Madarson IT certified images are always up to date, secure, follow industry standards, and are built to work right out of the box,” said Shola Madariola, CEO, Madarson IT.
“Microsoft Azure Marketplace welcomes Madarson IT’s hardened virtual servers and desktops, which join a cloud marketplace landscape predicted to grow revenue 500% from 2022 to 2025,” said Jake Zborowski, General Manager, Microsoft Azure Platform at Microsoft Corp. “Thanks to Azure Marketplace and partners like Madarson IT, customers can do more with less by increasing efficiency, buying confidently, and spending smarter.”
The Azure Marketplace is an online market for buying and selling cloud solutions certified to run on Azure. The Azure Marketplace helps connect companies seeking innovative, cloud-based solutions with partners who have developed solutions that are ready to use.
