“Ericom solutions experienced strong demand throughout the entire year, with record sales results posted in each and every quarter,” said David Canellos, President and CEO. “For the year, our sales and annual recurring revenue (ARR) both grew approximately 50%, and we experienced tremendous growth in the number of customers using Ericom’s isolation-based Zero Trust security products. In fact, the number of new organizations we onboarded to these solutions in 2021 grew more than 5 times the number from the prior year, and the number of users on our global cloud platform grew at a similar pace. Increasing market demand, coupled with the strong value proposition of our Zero Trust security solutions for organizations and partners of all sizes, positions us for even faster growth in 2022.”
Ericom’s ZTEdge Zero Trust Security Platform Launch

- Built-in identity and access management (IAM) tools for authenticating and authorizing users
- Cloud-delivered firewall and identity-based network segmentation and monitoring with patent-pending, ML-powered learning mode to automatically create and enforce granular user-level access policies to stop ransomware spread and remediate breaches
- Cloud Area Network™ capabilities to simplify connecting distributed workforces and resources

Remote Browser Isolation Innovations and Growth
In 2021, Ericom also continued to innovate in remote browser isolation (RBI), which Gartner includes as a key Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) capability. In April, the company announced an industry first, its patent-pending Virtual Meeting Isolation solution that brings the security benefits of RBI to web-based virtual meetings including Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and similar applications.
Ericom also introduced its Intelligent Isolation solution, which automatically sends websites to an isolated environment for remote rendering when Ericom Threat Intelligence Network data identifies a URL as potentially risky. More recently, Ericom announced Instant Messenger Isolation, a solution that protects organizations from ransomware and malware delivered via encrypted instant messaging web browser clients, such as the WhatsApp Web browser application.
