Trustwave has expanded its cloud-native Trustwave Fusion platform into the Pacific region by retaining all Pacific client data onshore in Australia to meet national regulatory requirements.

"We are committed to continuing to grow our investment in the Pacific region to drive success for our clients and allow them to conduct business securely," said Jason Whyte, General Manager for Pacific at Trustwave. "Our unique combination of world-class SpiderLabs security talent and our market-leading Trustwave Fusion platform enables us to meet the strenuous security needs of global enterprises. With our Trustwave Fusion expansion, we can continue to partner closely with our Pacific clients to address the changing nature of cyberattacks while keeping their data close to home."

Additionally, today’s expansion announcement will help Trustwave Pacific clients achieve legislative or regulatory compliance requirements that specify data storage within Australia or have a preference for data retention in Australia.

While all Pacific client data ingested into the Fusion platform will remain within Australia, clients will still benefit from the actionable insights of Trustwave's global SpiderLabs Threat Intelligence and the scale of its leading-edge Security Operations Center teams. The Trustwave Fusion platform offers a single view of threats, technology management, vulnerabilities, and perceived risks across an organization's entire environment.

"In response to market demand, we're proud to be able to fill a glaring gap in the industry by delivering cybersecurity services that are infused with global threat intelligence and can operate on a global scale, all while providing local data storage," continued Whyte.

Trustwave has a long history of working closely with our Pacific partners and clients and positioning our infrastructure to serve our clients in every region worldwide. For example, Trustwave Fusion utilizes AWS Cloud in Sydney and is built using IRAP-assessed AWS services. Additionally, Trustwave maintains ISO27001 and SOC Type II compliance certification across its organization.
