Cyxtera, a global leader in data center colocation and interconnection services, today announced new online self-service capabilities that allow organizations to evaluate, order, and deploy services from its global data center platform in minutes.
Organizations can now shop for and provision on-demand infrastructure, space, power, connectivity, and other services in Cyxtera’s data centers at the click of a button, with or without an existing contract in place or the need to engage in a lengthy sales process.
“Our new self-service capabilities give customers everything they like about cloud – the ability to select and provision on-demand services quickly – with the cost predictability, performance, and control they get from running dedicated infrastructure in a data center,” said Mitch Fonseca, Cyxtera’s Chief Development Officer.
“Many organizations are reevaluating their workload placement to optimize efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and scalability,” Fonseca continued. “While public cloud is a great match for early experimentation, DevOps, and many seasonal workloads that burst up or down, it is not typically ideal for steady-state, resource-intensive enterprise workloads and can be very expensive for these use cases.”
With its new online self-service capabilities, Cyxtera gives its customers a cloud-like buying experience with access to dedicated, single tenant infrastructure at a predictable monthly cost, allowing them to grow quickly while avoiding capital expenditure and budget overruns.
With Cyxtera’s Digital Exchange data center network fabric and Enterprise Bare Metal offering, organizations can choose on-demand services from a variety of leading enterprise vendors, including Dell, HPE, and NVIDIA. They can also provision Cyxtera SmartCabs if they wish to use their own hardware. With either configuration, organizations can leverage Cyxtera IP Connect to instantly provision internet access.
With Cyxtera’s single-pane-of-glass customer portal, Command Center, customers can easily and remotely monitor, manage, and control their infrastructure from anywhere.

RSA Conference-- Eclypsium®, the digital supply chain security company protecting enterprises’ critical hardware, firmware, and software, today announced the release of its Supply Chain Security Platform. The new platform enables an organization’s IT security and operations teams to continuously identify and monitor the bill of materials, integrity and vulnerability of components and system code in each device, providing insight into the overall supply chain risk to the organization. One unique capability in the platform is the SBOM (Software Bill of Materials) generated for each component and system code in enterprise devices which provides an industry-standard format for visibility into components and dependencies comprising a device’s technology, verifying integrity and monitoring for critical risks.
“There are unique challenges that come with understanding the underlying risks of the digital supply chain,” said Yuriy Bulygin, CEO and Co-Founder of Eclypsium. “There is an innate lack of visibility into an organization’s IT infrastructure when the very nature of third, fourth, and nth party relationships cause a dramatic increase in security risk. It’s extremely difficult for security teams to take an independent and consistent approach to verifying the integrity and security posture of software, firmware and components in their devices. It is critical that enterprises be able to standardize this approach across their technology supply chain eliminating blind trust in their vendors and manufacturers. This is why we built the Eclypsium Supply Chain Security Platform.”
Today’s supply chains have grown significantly in size and complexity. The attack surface has expanded exponentially with the increased reliance on third-party vendors and components, and organizations face more blind spots than ever. In 2022, the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report cited supply chain as responsible for over 60% of system intrusion incidents. Data breaches resulting from supply chain attacks have grown so rapidly that they have now surpassed the number of malware-based compromises by 40%, according to the 2022 Data Breach Report by the Identity Theft Resource Center. The number of entities targeted by supply chain attacks increased 235% from 2021 to 2022.
Eclypsium has long offered a security solution purpose-built to identify, verify, and fortify the critical system code within enterprise infrastructure and devices. The Eclypsium Supply Chain Security Platform includes capabilities to verify the bill of materials (SBOM), integrity and mitigate supply chain security risk in infrastructure devices and equipment enterprises rely upon, below the surface of applications. Providing end-to-end protection for the underlying components of enterprise infrastructure and devices, Eclypsium’s platform equips businesses with the tools and insights needed to secure the digital supply chains against disruptions, data loss, and other costly risks of cyberattack.
