Ameritas Investment Company, LLC Chooses Entreda, A Wholly Owned Subsidiary Of Smarsh, To Provide Endpoint Cyber Risk And Compliance Software; Completes Roll Out To Independent Financial Professionals

SANTA CLARA, Calif. and LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Entreda, an award-winning developer of integrated cybersecurity software and solutions for the wealth management and insurance industries, today announced that it has finalized an agreement with Ameritas Investment Company, LLC (AIC), an independent Broker/Dealer and Registered Investment Adviser. Entreda will provide its comprehensive suite of cybersecurity solutions to the company's network of national financial professionals.

AIC's selection of Entreda highlights Entreda's differentiated position as the cybersecurity provider of choice for sophisticated enterprises, with its customer-first approach, leading auto-remediation capabilities and forward-looking strategic roadmap. The agreement with AIC comes as the Covid-19 pandemic has forced financial professionals from around the country to work remotely, making digital security of computers and devices a matter of utmost importance for wealth management and financial services firms. AIC has rolled out the Entreda endpoint cyber risk and compliance software to its independent financial professional channel.

Sid Yenamandra, CEO and founder of Entreda, a wholly owned subsidiary of Smarsh, said, "In these uncertain times, when most financial and insurance professionals are working remotely, enterprises need the tools and solutions to ensure cyber vulnerabilities that surface due to the Covid-19 pandemic are addressed. Companies need to feel empowered to prevent and rebuff cyber-attacks, and Entreda's end-to-end cybersecurity platform does just that. We are thrilled to be working with AIC to help protect their data and networks."

Entreda's offerings for enterprise clients in the wealth management and insurance spaces include end-point monitoring for all network computers and other devices, industry-leading auto-remediation, real-time network vulnerability scanning, cyber awareness and anti-phishing training and cyber due-diligence of third-party vendors.

Carrie Weber, senior vice president – chief risk and compliance officer at Ameritas, said, "Working with the Entreda team has made the adoption of the new toolkit to our financial professionals a smooth and seamless transition. AIC is a longtime partner of Smarsh and we have been pleased with their services to manage cybersecurity risk profiles and information archiving. Smarsh and Entreda are helping us to fulfill the lives of our customers."
