Qualys Inc, a pioneer and provider of disruptive cloud-based IT, security and compliance solutions, has announced it has entered into an agreement to acquire TotalCloud, a cloud workflow management and no-code automation platform.
Upon closing, the acquisition will further strengthen Qualys’ Cloud Security solution allowing customers to build user-defined workflows for custom policies and execute them on-demand for simplified security and compliance.
“With the accelerating adoption of cloud technologies, organisations are looking for ways to simplify cloud security visibility and remediation with easy to automate workflows,” said Sumedh Thakar, President and CEO, Qualys. “The acquisition of TotalCloud will allow Qualys to bring visual cloud remediation workflow technology to the Qualys Cloud Platform, underscoring our continued innovation in Cloud Security.”
Due to the vast number and varied behavior of the APIs involved in multi-cloud environments, it is hard for customers to build automation to control security, utilisation, inventory, and remediation. The TotalCloud technology will allow Qualys customers to build cloud workflows easily.
“We are excited to welcome TotalCloud employees, including its founder Pradeep Kumar, to the Qualys family,” said Thakar.
