Why Industry Experts, Insurance Carriers and Customers Trust Acreto

Joe Silva
CISO, JLL

Securing today’s hybrid infrastructure requires the ability to identify, connect, isolate, and protect an incredibly wide array of technologies.
Acreto isolates and secures all technologies, including purpose-built technologies like HVAC and elevator control systems, simply, without products or re-architecture.

Paul Blackstone
COO, 121 Financial

Securing our offices, branches, clouds and vendors was overwhelming. Especially for our operationalized technologies, like ATMs and HVAC units. They needed individual, special consideration.
Acreto completely consolidated security into a single platform for us. When COVID hit, we were able to immediately scale to support all our work from home users. Acreto just works.

Kelly Robertson
Virtual CISO, M-Theory Group

I first came across Acreto in my role as a vCISO. One of our customers was rejected Cyber Insurance and the carrier recommended Acreto to mitigate the identified risks. The sales and deployment process was easy and non-disruptive, taking only a few hours in a span of two days. The customer got insured with the coverage they needed at a significantly reduced rate. Acreto is truly an efficient and innovative security technology that I am now recommending to my other customers.

Robert Thomas
Former CEO, Netscreen & Infoblox

Security today is out of sync with how organizations use technology. There are too many one-off security products that are expensive and need hard to find experts. Ultimately this approach creates a complex mess. Acreto takes a fundamentally new approach to security that's inline with technology today. It is mindful that organizations are distributed, use diverse and non-standard technologies, and need to interoperate with third-parties. What truly sets Acreto apart is that it's effective yet simple at a level never seen before. I believe what Acreto has built is how all security will be delivered in the near future.

Robert Flores
Former CTO, Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Cost, complexity and access to talent have put effective cyber-security beyond the reach of many organizations. Acreto has developed a technology that delivers isolation, controls and threat prevention for the entire infrastructure in a single platform.
This combination makes Acreto powerfully effective. Just as importantly though, they address the lack of resources and complexity challenges that have marred attempts at security.

Jean-Francois Gueguen
CEO, The French American Academy

Our consortium of French schools is distributed throughout the US and doesn’t have the expertise or budgets for a complex security infrastructure. All-the-while protecting students is our number one priority.

Acreto replaced all existing products and gave us new capabilities we didn’t have, but needed. It was easy to get up and running and after two years of using Acreto, we know it just plain works.

Eric Ashdown
Cyber Security Expert and Former CISO, Microsoft

I love what Acreto is doing. It is an innovative and smarter way to do cyber security. As a former CISO for Microsoft, I could have used Acreto to solve so many problems, much faster and in more meaningful ways, at a fraction of the cost.

Bob Gourley
Former CTO, Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA)

In my decades of security work for commercial and government organizations, there was a very real understanding that security was not just a bunch of products. It needs to be functionally and operationally cohesive. The industry today, with its piecemeal product approach has just not gotten this right.
Acreto addresses this problem with truly innovative technology that is complete, consolidated as well as both functionally and operationally cohesive. Acreto is the future of cyber security.
