HUNT VALLEY, MD.--(Korea Newswire)--Dunbar Digital Armor, the cyber security affiliate of Dunbar Armored, Inc. has announced that it has begun providing services to the NASDAQ OMX Group to protect access to FinQloud, the company‘s secure, cloud computing platform designed exclusively for the financial services industry. Dunbar Digital Armor will support FinQloud’s Regulatory Record Retention (R3) storage solution which provides broker dealers with the ability to safely meet record archival and retrieval requirements at substantially reduced cost and complexity.

“Dunbar Digital Armor is proud to be a trusted technology partner for NASDAQ OMX‘s FinQloud,” said Kevin R. Dunbar, President and Chief Executive Officer of Dunbar Armored, Inc. “Providing cyber security solutions to protect our customers’ digital records in accordance with government regulations has become an integral part of our business model as physical and digital security have converged and our organization has evolved to defend against new security threats,” he noted.

NASDAQ OMX's FinQloud provides the financial services community with a secure, “industry-only” solution designed to immediately reduce technology burdens, aid in compliance and refocus resources on revenue driving operations. These economic benefits are made possible because of the scalability of a fully managed solution that includes all the layers of cloud computing, such as infrastructure data management, virtualization, and hosting. To meet stringent operational, regulatory, and security requirements; and to protect the integrity of data, all connections to FinQloud must pass through a rigorous encryption key management system, which is housed in private NASDAQ OMX data centers.
