As the demand for cybersecurity solutions continues to rise in response to complex threats, iStorage has made a strategic move to boost the encrypted data storage landscape with the acquisition of Kanguru Solutions.

iStorage is probably best known for its PIN-authenticated, hardware-encrypted portable data storage and cloud encryption devices, and Kanguru for offering secure hardware-encrypted devices and advanced duplication and remote management capabilities.

The company says its acquisition will enable iStorage to provide a more comprehensive product lineup, offering customers greater flexibility and security when managing sensitive data across multiple devices.

"This acquisition is transformative for iStorage, reinforcing our commitment to delivering ultra-secure, flexible, and affordable data management solutions," noted John Michael, Founder & CEO of iStorage.
