Organizations today face a significant challenge in securing their distributed edge computing locations, including retail stores, manufacturing lines, and remote or mobile sites. Typical infrastructure deployments often resemble a patchwork of disparate components, creating a varied landscape of hardware, operating systems, and applications. This diversity not only complicates management and support but also presents a massive attack surface for bad actors.
Scale Computing Platform helps customers address this challenge with its secure-by-design approach. We understand that the security of your data and infrastructure is paramount. Our platform is designed with a security-first mentality, ensuring your edge deployment is protected against emerging threats.
Don’t Overlook Simplicity: The Devil is in the Details
Reduce Attack Surface
Security is a critical consideration in selecting a platform, as it directly influences an organization's capability to protect its data and infrastructure. Although VMware is a well-established name in the industry, the inherent complexity of its deployment model can inadvertently expand the attack surface. This complexity not only increases the risk of potential security breaches but also elevates the likelihood of misconfigurations that could compromise the deployment's security.
By tightly controlling our software supply chain and locking down on-premises systems by eliminating additional client applications, network storage, and other common access protocols like SSH, and eliminating the need to open firewalls for remote access into your distributed locations, we also eliminate attack vectors. Simple and secure by default, this inherently increases the security of your applications, data, and infrastructure.
Security by Design
SC//Platform stands out with its 'secure by design' and 'secure by default' approach. SC//Platform has reduced software vulnerabilities with our secure appliance model that is easy to patch and maintain. This streamlined simplicity ensures that a secure deployment is achieved with considerably less effort and lower risk of misconfiguration, offering a more robust and efficient solution for organizational security needs.
Simplicity is at the core of all we do at Scale Computing, including security. This means there aren’t hundreds of pages of instructions for securing your SC//Platform deployment because security is an inherent part of the design, so you don’t have to do it.
