This solution hasn't earned enough merit to be scored
Tehama is the leading Enclave-as-a-Service platform, designed to enable enterprises to securely connect their global workforce to sensitive systems and data. The platform allows organizations to isolate information, enforce Zero-Trust access, and maintain full auditability across their extended workforce and supply chain, all without the need for extensive infrastructure re-architecture. Tehama originated in 2016 from an internal solution built at Pythian, a global remote systems and data operations firm, to address complex and often contradictory customer compliance requirements. The platform officially launched in New York City in 2018, distinguishing itself as the first fully cloud-native Enclave-as-a-Service solution. It was built from the ground up to secure third parties, contractors, and distributed teams at scale, integrating governed virtual desktops, automated policy controls, multi-cloud capabilities, and forensic auditability into a single architecture. After several years of venture-backed growth, Tehama's management team acquired the company in 2023, establishing it as a profitable, independent business. Today, Tehama remains focused on its mission to provide the most secure, efficient, and compliant way for enterprises to create and manage enclaves worldwide. Its technology is offered as a Virtual Office as a Service, simplifying the management, onboarding, and auditing of third-party vendors, remote teams, and freelancers through compliant, secure, and on-demand cloud-based virtual desktops.
