senhasegura Opens North American Operations in San Francisco and New York


Brazilian-based senhasegura has officially launched its North American operations with new San Francisco and New York offices. Industry pundits widely acknowledge the Company’s Privileged Access Management (PAM) solution for its technological superiority, and users laud it for its intuitive, easy-to-use configuration and low cost of ownership. With its growth into the North American market, senhasegura protects thousands of privileged users in more than 55 countries globally.

As a business expands into new markets, it’s essential to have a presence in the United States. The U.S. is the world’s largest economy and offers opportunities for businesses of all sizes. With its large population and diverse landscape, the U.S. is a great place to do business.

The United States also has some of the most business-friendly laws in the world, and its economy is stable and growing. In addition, the U.S. offers access to a large pool of talented workers. And with English being the predominant language in business, doing business in America is easier than doing business in other countries where English is not the primary language.

This U.S. expansion is a significant milestone for senhasegura and underscores its commitment to providing the highest levels of security for our customer’s most sensitive data assets. “I’m proud of the success that our company has achieved in Latin America and beyond, and I’m excited to expand our global footprint into the North American market,” said senhasegura, Co-Founder and Co-CEO Marcus Scharra. “Enterprises around the world are struggling to secure an increasingly complex environment that includes human and machine users, IoT devices, DevOps operations that demand security layers, API connections, and the cloud. Leveraging our global experience and perspective, senhasegura is committed to developing forward-looking, modern PAM solutions that help create secure, resilient organizations and ensure their digital sovereignty.”

Privileged Access Management is a critical component of any enterprise security strategy. senhasegura’s industry-leading solution helps organizations protect their data assets from the growing threats cybercriminals pose. With its expansion into North America, senhasegura is well positioned to help enterprises around the world secure their most sensitive data.
