Comodo Announces ARFA Technology as Partner for Pan African Cybersecurity Marketplace

Clifton, NJ – October 20, 2020 – Comodo, the world’s leader of next-generation cybersecurity announced a partnership with ARFA Technology Ltd. a Pan African company that specializes in cybersecurity solutions.  ARFA is bringing Comodo’s entire range of cybersecurity solutions to every country in the African market.

“We are a new Comodo distributor that is based in Africa and understands the needs of our local customers. We know that most enterprises in Africa do not have the luxury to invest in multiple cybersecurity solutions to secure their networks. Comodo’s platform offers advanced endpoint protection and auto containment, plus antivirus and other functionalities. With just a single SKU our customers have comprehensive cybersecurity solutions,” said Faustine Ebangha, Co-Founder and Channel Sales Director at ARFA Technology.

Faustine continued, “We evaluated Panda, McAfee, Crowdstrike and Kapersky but Comodo’s breadth of capabilities and pricing makes it the best cybersecurity product in the global market. The competition either does not have the competences that Comodo offers or they charge for it separately, making their solutions too cost prohibitive to the enterprises we serve.”

ARFA Technology will offer Comodo’s Dragon platform with Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP), which is a complete cloud-native framework that delivers a zero-trust architecture to protect and defend endpoints. Its patent-pending auto containment technology has active breach protection that neutralizes ransomware, malware and cyber-attacks. The auto containment runs an unknown executable in a kernel API virtualized mode, thereby offering attack surface reduction (ASR) which neutralizes ransomware attacks. The Dragon Platform also utilizes a Default Deny security posture with Default Allow usability to provide a most comprehensive protection against zero-day threats, while having no impact on end-user experience or workflows. Comodo’s Valkyrie analyzes and gives a trusted verdict for every file – no other company will analyze and give trusted verdict for 100% of the files on a network.

Comodo’s platform shares intelligence and is therefore more secure than disparate products that claim best of breed but don’t share information. Comodo has architected its cybersecurity product to maximize intelligent sharing between every component of the platform, therefore providing superior security.

Alan Knepfer, President and Chief Revenue Office at Comodo said, “This partnership has empowered ARFA to make Comodo solutions and attractive pricing available to customers in every single country in Africa and they’ve had great success. They only recently introduced Comodo’s solutions to the African market and have already closed several deals with customers, with more expected very soon.”
