Fortra

Fortra is a cybersecurity company helping organisations simplify and strengthen their security posture through an integrated portfolio of solutions spanning threat detection, data protection, infrastructure security, and managed services.

Cyber Security

One Company. A Complete Cybersecurity Portfolio.

Fortra brings together a powerful collection of cybersecurity products and services under one roof, helping organisations cut through complexity and build a stronger, more resilient security posture. Formerly known as HelpSystems, Fortra has evolved into a purpose-built cybersecurity company — uniting best-of-breed solutions across data security, infrastructure protection, managed security services, and threat intelligence into a cohesive, integrated platform. As an authorised distributor of Fortra across Australia and New Zealand, Aquion gives IT resellers and enterprise customers access to the full Fortra portfolio, backed by local expertise and dedicated vendor support.

Core Product Portfolio

Data Security

Protect sensitive data wherever it lives with Fortra's data security suite. Products include Digital Guardian for data loss prevention (DLP), Titus for data classification, and Vera for persistent file protection — enabling organisations to control data access, enforce policy, and meet compliance obligations.

Threat Intelligence & Detection

Fortra's threat intelligence capabilities include Agari for email fraud and phishing defence, Clearswift for advanced content inspection, and PhishLabs for digital risk protection — giving security teams the visibility they need to detect and respond to sophisticated threats before they cause damage.

Infrastructure Protection

Secure your critical infrastructure with Tripwire for file integrity monitoring and configuration management, Core Security for vulnerability management and penetration testing, and Powertech for IBM i security. These tools give teams continuous visibility into configuration drift, vulnerabilities, and access risks.

Security Automation & Operations

Reduce manual effort and accelerate response with Fortra's automation and operations tools, including Automate for IT workflow automation, Robot for IBM i operations, and GoAnywhere MFT for secure managed file transfer — helping teams do more with less while maintaining security and audit trails.

Email Security

Defend against phishing, business email compromise, and email-borne malware with Fortra's email security portfolio. Agari Brand Protection and Clearswift Secure Email Gateway provide multi-layered defences — combining AI-driven detection, deep content inspection, and policy-based controls to stop threats at the inbox.

Privileged Access Management

Control and audit privileged user access with Fortra's identity and access management solutions. Bravura Security provides enterprise PAM capabilities, enabling organisations to manage privileged credentials, enforce least-privilege access, and generate detailed audit logs for compliance and forensic purposes.

Managed Security Services

For organisations that need expert support without the overhead of building an in-house team, Fortra's Managed Security Services deliver 24x7 threat monitoring, detection, and response capabilities backed by experienced security analysts. Services span vulnerability management, penetration testing as a service (PTaaS), phishing simulation, and digital risk monitoring — giving organisations enterprise-grade protection regardless of internal resource constraints. Fortra's managed services complement its software portfolio, providing a flexible model where customers can consume security as a service, augment existing teams, or transition towards a fully managed security operations model over time.
