Carbon Black, the endpoint security and big data and analytics cloud platform provider, has announced an integration with the VMware Workspace One digital workspace platform.
Together, Carbon Black and VMware now provide predictive and automated security in digital workspaces, according to a prepared statement.
Carbon Black has incorporated its Predictive Security Cloud (PSC) threat analytics and Cb Defense next-generation antivirus offerings into Workspace One, the company stated. By doing so, Workspace One users can retrieve and analyze critical endpoint data, alerts and events from PSC and Cb Defense to improve their security orchestration capabilities, analytics, response and remediation.
In addition, Workspace One integrates insights across devices, users and apps to provide predictive security across a digital workspace, Carbon Black noted. The Workspace One Trust Network also is available to help organizations use security insights from Workspace One and various VMware partner solutions to protect, detect and remediate cyberattacks.
The Workspace One integration comes after Carbon Black and VMware in December partnered to deliver a joint cloud security solution that automates threat detection and response. With the Carbon Black-VMware joint cloud security solution, end users can leverage VMware AppDefense endpoint security capabilities in combination with PSC.
