Blue Mantis and HYCU Partner

Blue Mantis, Inc. announced a partnership and integration agreement with HYCU, Inc.

This collaboration will help Blue Mantis clients using AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, as well as an array of SaaS platforms, to instantly identify and backup their cloud and SaaS applications, determine vulnerabilities and remediate compliance gaps.

In 4Q24 Blue Mantis will offer a free version of HYCU R-Graph, a SaaS visualization solution for data protection. HYCU R-Graph helps visualize a company’s entire data estate, including on-premises, cloud, and SaaS applications and data. Additionally, Blue Mantis plans to bring a HYCU managed backup services offering to market in 2025.

“In today’s multi-cloud world, many organizations rely on SaaS applications to run their businesses, yet many still struggle with SaaS sprawl, which compromises their ability to protect and backup data and ensure compliance,” said Josh Dinneen, CEO, Blue Mantis. “Our partnership with HYCU allows Blue Mantis to address this complex challenge head-on by providing our clients with a proven solution that delivers unmatched visibility, protection, and compliance capabilities.“

As technology continues to expand and evolve, organizations at the forefront of SaaS application deployments in conjunction with Cloud-Native or Cloud-Hybridized environments are realizing potential gaps in business resiliency, as well as their overall security posture and compliance initiatives.

From a recent HYCU global survey, The State of SaaS Resilience in 2024, 43% of respondents said they lack staff with the required skills to protect SaaS application data leaving the growing number of SaaS applications in use across organizations at risk of being unprotected and unable to recover.

“HYCU’s partnership with Blue Mantis represents a strategic alignment of our capabilities and vision,” said Simon Taylor, founder and CEO, HYCU. “Blue Mantis’s expertise in managed services, cybersecurity, and cloud solutions truly complements HYCU’s advanced SaaS and cloud data protection solutions perfectly. By teaming, we can offer companies a powerful combination of Blue Mantis’s security-first approach and HYCU’s cutting-edge resiliency and data protection solutions. We will offer a powerful way to navigate the complexities of multi-cloud environments along with the emergence of SaaS application use for greater efficiency and security.“
