vArmour, a provider of application relationship management software, has just announced the establishment of their latest development center in Vilnius, Lithuania.
The development center in Lithuania will be at the forefront of vArmour’s core development efforts and become one of the company’s primary European hubs.
Having evaluated numerous sites around the EMEA region, vArmour said that it chose Lithuania for its track record in cybersecurity.
The center will specialise in expanding 3rd party integrations, which will enable the company to better leverage its core capabilities of discovering, observing, and controlling application, user, and data relationships across multiple IT environments.
Additionally, vArmour has also declared its intention to develop partnerships with Lithuanian universities to enable internship and upskilling programs and leverage the technical, business development, and sales skills of the country’s recent university graduates.
The Silicon Valley company has focused on minimising cybersecurity exposure and controlling enterprise risk since its inception in 2011.
They provide a resiliency monitoring and a security platform for operational risk control, increased application resiliency, and hybrid cloud security, leveraging partnerships like AWS and Microsoft.
vArmour has expanded to operate in North America, Europe, the Middle East, South America and Asia Pacific regions and continues to grow rapidly in all these regions.
“Our past and future success are based on two related trends — the significant increase in the frequency of sophisticated cyberattacks and the evolution and migration of computing environments to the cloud. We are building innovative solutions that most effectively respond to those trends.
We will endeavour to join and foster cybersecurity communities in Lithuania, support security researchers and create environments to collaborate and exchange knowledge,”
said Keith Stewart, SVP of Product and Strategy at vArmour.
“Increasing threats to the security of ever more prevalent cloud computing platforms will only enhance the need for solutions tailored to combat them.
Lithuania offers a steady stream of well educated and dedicated IT specialists, which has made it a favoured location for technology companies, and will undoubtedly serve vArmour in building on their innovative, effective solutions to such threats.”
said Elijus Čivilis, General Manager of Invest Lithuania.
