Unisys (UIS) Unveils New Advanced Endpoint Security Solution

Unisys Corporation (NYSE:UIS) announced a new Advanced Endpoint Protection solution, which aims to help organizations by protecting them from advanced cyber threats with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) threat prevention measures.

The inclusion of Unisys Stealth micro segmentation software provides organizations with the ability to hide critical assets and create virtual secure perimeters. The company’s security solutions combine experienced consulting, advanced products and managed services for the entire security lifecycle from prediction and prevention to detection of rapidly evolving cyber threats.

To drive future growth, Unisys is focusing its resources and investments in four targeted, high-potential market areas, including security (IT security and physical security); data center transformation and outsourcing services; end-user outsourcing and support services; and applications modernization and outsourcing services.

The information technology industry is presently undergoing a transition phase, forging new disruptive trends in cloud mobility, Big Data, social computing and increasing awareness of cyber security. In order to capitalize on the trends, Unisys is rationalizing its services and solution portfolio by shifting its offerings to cloud-based and software-as-a-service delivery models.

Unisys continued its transition to a more asset-lite business model, which resulted in reduced CapEx needs and improved cash flow. The company successfully executed its vertical go-to-market strategy, including hiring leaders of key sectors.

The stock has outperformed the industry in the last three months, with an average return of 28.8% compared with growth of 2.5% for the latter.
