Splashtop Expands with Sovereign Cloud Infrastructure in Australia to Strengthen Data Residency and Security Compliance
Announcement posted by Splashtop 21 Jun 2025
SYDNEY, June 21, 2025 - Splashtop, a global provider of remote access, support, and endpoint management solutions, today announced its establishment of Australia-based infrastructure via a dedicated user database to support growing demand for data sovereignty, regional compliance, and high-performance remote access. This strategic investment enables organizations in Australia to use Splashtop services with confidence, knowing their data remains stored and processed locally under Australian jurisdiction.
Splashtop's Australian sovereign cloud helps government, education, and enterprise customers meet national data protection standards, including new data sovereignty requirements under the 2023 Privacy Act. It also streamlines compliance with key frameworks such as the Essential Eight Maturity Model, the Information Security Manual (ISM), and enables readiness for Information Security Registered Assessors Program (IRAP) assessments. The dedicated infrastructure improves connection performance, supports compliance efforts, and underscores Splashtop's continued commitment to offering flexible, secure solutions globally.
In addition to its regional cloud infrastructure, Splashtop offers an on-premise deployment option for organizations with stricter data governance policies or air-gapped environments.
"As more countries take steps to enforce digital sovereignty, we're investing in infrastructure that gives our customers choice and control," said Mark Lee, CEO and Co-founder of Splashtop. "This localized infrastructure supports data residency and helps streamline compliance, giving Australian customers greater peace of mind."
"From sovereign cloud to on-prem, Splashtop is committed to meeting customers where they are technically and geographically," added Leonard Wong, Regional Vice President at Splashtop. "With our Australia infrastructure now live, we're better positioned to meet regional procurement and compliance requirements, opening the door to support new customers that demand strict data residency assurances."
In today's distributed work environment and fast-evolving cybersecurity climate, organizations are strained to keep systems secure and efficient with limited IT resources. To close security gaps, Splashtop recently announced a new autonomous endpoint management (AEM) solution for remote support users seeking to improve efficiencies, visibility, and control over devices on their networks.
The solution brings critical automation features to resource-constrained IT teams, including vulnerability scanning and real-time patch updates for combatting zero-day threats, and gives IT teams greater control over the security of Windows and Mac devices in their environments. IT administrators can now establish and enforce network and security configurations, and deploy and patch software at scale. A powerful complement to Microsoft Intune, Splashtop AEM strengthens security by accelerating patch times and enabling IT to gain more value from long-term technology investments. Likewise, it provides a cost-friendly alternative to more costly and comprehensive patch management and remote monitoring and management (RMM) solutions. IT teams can further simplify their tech stacks by consolidating remote access, support, and endpoint management with Splashtop.
Splashtop AEM provides an affordable alternative that simplifies security by providing real-time solutions to detect, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities quickly. Small and midsized IT teams gain unprecedented visibility and proactive control over their environments via an easy-to-use dashboard and intelligent automation. Ring-based policy management allows them to phase deployments and tune security policies based on risk tolerance. While purpose-built for SMBs, Splashtop AEM scales to 200,000 plus endpoints without performance degradation, making it a powerful and affordable option for many enterprise environments.
"It only takes one misconfigured device or unpatched app to expose your entire organization. Every unsecured endpoint exponentially increases the risk of a breach. Splashtop AEM gives IT the power to act quickly, stay compliant, and operate at scale," said Mark Lee, CEO and Co-founder of Splashtop. "These updates are part of our broader vision to deliver seamless, proactive, and autonomous endpoint management no matter the organization's size."
This new regional infrastructure bolsters Splashtop's security offering and growing global footprint, including existing deployments in the United States, Canada, Japan, the European Union, and now Australia. The rollout reflects Splashtop's broader mission to deliver secure, performant, and compliant solutions that align with regional regulations and customer expectations.
