SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HashiCorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: HCP), <\/strong>a leader in cloud infrastructure automation software, today announced it has joined the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA)<\/u><\/a>, a global community of technology companies collaborating with Microsoft to provide customers with solutions that enhance the security of their digital ecosystems. The move highlights HashiCorp’s commitment to enabling secure, agile, and collaborative cloud native workflows and strengthening the security of modern IT environments.<\/p>\n

The nomination was a result of the integration between HashiCorp\u2019s identity-based secure remote access solution, HashiCorp Boundary, and Microsoft\u2019s enterprise identity platform, Microsoft Azure Active Directory<\/u><\/a>, to enable easy access to applications and critical systems. By HashiCorp joining MISA, HashiCorp customers will have access to Microsoft’s expertise, resources, and network of partners, accelerating the development and delivery of secure, compliant, and scalable cloud native solutions.<\/p>\n

HashiCorp\u2019s zero trust solution, which includes HashiCorp Vault, Boundary, and Consul, provides the use of fine-grained authentication and authorization policies based on an organization\u2019s trusted identities. Together HashiCorp and Microsoft offer seamless, automated onboarding for Azure identities, targets, roles, and permissions into a Boundary environment.<\/p>\n

“Joining MISA is a natural step in our mission to enable organizations to adopt best-in-class security technologies with confidence,” said Asvin Ramesh, senior director of partner alliances at HashiCorp. \u201cThrough our collaboration with Microsoft and other members of the association, we look forward to advancing the state of cloud security and empowering our joint customers to securely innovate and operate in the cloud.”<\/p>\n

As part of its membership in MISA, HashiCorp intends to work closely with Microsoft and other association members to develop best practices, share insights and expertise, and drive innovation in cloud-native security. HashiCorp will also participate in joint go-to-market activities with Microsoft, providing customers with integrated solutions that leverage both companies’ technologies.<\/p>\n

\n Secure remote access with Boundary<\/strong>
\n
HashiCorp Boundary provides a secure way for users to access hosts and critical systems with fine-grained authorizations without manually managing credentials or exposing your network. In June, HashiCorp announced the general availability of HashiCorp Boundary Enterprise as well as session recording, which allows organizations to track what actions a user or application takes when accessing data via a remote access protocol such as SSH.<\/p>\n

Boundary coordinates access management and user authorization within distributed systems. Tight integration between Boundary and Azure Active Directory offers seamless, automated onboarding for Azure identities, targets, roles, and permissions into a Boundary environment. Across clouds, local datacenters, and low-trust networks, Boundary provides an easy solution to protect and safeguard access by leveraging trusted identities. It integrates with trusted identity and access management platforms, such as Microsoft Entra and many others that support OpenID Connect.<\/p>\n

\u201cCustomers need to be confident that their sensitive data, employees\u2019 identities, applications, infrastructure, and endpoints are always secure. We\u2019ve invested in the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association to provide customers with more options that meet their unique security requirements,\u201d said Maria Thomson, Microsoft Intelligent Security Association lead.<\/p>\n
