Seclore, provider of the industry’s first open Data-Centric Security Platform, today announced a record year of growth and momentum. Key metrics for new customer acquisition, retention, and usage hit an all-time high for the company, driven by large organizations and government agencies acknowledging the need for security to become data-centric.

Enterprise adoption of cloud services is experiencing a record acceleration, which drives security and privacy concerns. These security concerns are highlighted by organizations expanding their cloud applications to employees working from home and external agencies. Combined with these new concerns are the increasing and more punitive privacy regulations creating a perfect storm for security professionals.

We look forward to continuing our momentum in 2021, by launching innovative new offerings to speed deployment, automate security, and reduce IT administration, ensuring customers’ sensitive data is protected 24/7 in the cloud.”

Coming on the heels of Seclore’s record growth, the company announced:

• More than 50 active 10,000 user deployments, of which 15+ deployments have more than 50,000 users
• Maintained over 100% net retention rate of customers for five years in a row
• Usage of Seclore Data-Centric Security Platform has risen by more than 100% in the last 12 months, fueled by enhanced support for Microsoft 365, including the recent release for Microsoft Teams.
