About

At Gruve, my mission is to ensure as many firms as possible are realizing all of the benefits of the Salesforce ecosystem. With the advancements of artificial intelligence and what can be leveraged via Lightning, I want to help everyone bring the magic to life while helping to train the support staff of the tools so they can “cook their own food” long-term.

    BETTER THAN “GOOD ENOUGH” SECURITY

    The days of “good enough” security that relies on analytics and passwords alone are over. The cloud allows authorized users to access sensitive data remotely, equally enabling hackers to do the same, since the cloud has inadequate protections on differentiating between an authorized user and a hacker.

    The combination of the Connected Smart Card™ (CSC™) security hardware and the U4ia™ platform is an effective way to mitigate these risks by enabling high-grade endpoint security in the hands of authorized users. The U4ia identity and secure transaction platform is flexible and can be configured to use any of the 4 NIST Levels, based on the information / transaction being secured. Our hardware and software services are protected by over 100 issued and pending patents and over 550 issued invention claims.
