United Planners Financial Services has adopted a cybersecurity solution that takes its platform off the open internet and puts it on a private network.
The solution, cleverDome, covers the transmission of data between the firm's vendors, advisers and staff.
“It enables essential cybersecurity controls and principles to be enforced, such as minimum endpoint device standards, protected cloud services, and no-trust access and communications,” Brian Kobel, a product manager at United Planners, said in a statement. “Additionally, we can say goodbye to the security and performance issues associated with traditional [virtual private network] services.”
