(Dispersive), its strategic solutions partner for Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), have announced they won two cybersecurity awards in the 2022 Annual ‘ASTORS’ Awards program from American Security Today, for their leading-edge cybersecurity solutions, Phantom and DispersiveCloud™.

IW’s Phantom Next-Generation was designed as a cybersecurity solution for Homeland Security and the Department of Defense to communicate in obfuscated, non-attributable, remote, secure, but unclassified manner. Additionally, phantom provides the ability for organizations to access foreign points of presence to conduct remote open-source information gathering and research while at the same time protecting organizations and individuals from exposure to foreign intelligence.

Dispersive, IW’s solutions partner, also won Best Cyber Critical Infrastructure solution award for its innovative DispersiveCloud, a converged SaaS Zero Trust Networking solution. DispersiveCloud empowers organizations to actively secure and obscure endpoints and assets without the need for expensive network engineers. Moreover, DispersiveCloud provides advanced VPN and ZTNA services in a single solution without any upfront infrastructure investment.

John Hammes, Intelligent Waves’ Chief Strategy Officer, stated, “We are honored and excited to receive this recognition for Phantom and Dispersive Cloud, two strategic solutions developed in collaboration to protect our nation’s defense and homeland security critical infrastructure.”
