Case Study: Armored Info achieves enterprise-grade protection for artists' creative IP with Armor

Inside Armored Info’s Mission to Defend the Artist

Armored Info, a Hartford-based startup founded by Michael and Jonathan Fahey, set out to defend artists targeted by sophisticated online threats—everything from pre-release album and script leaks to studio hacks. After talking to musicians, filmmakers and photographers, the team found no single, proven solution for protecting creative IP while supporting the freelance, cross-industry collaboration common to modern production workflows.

Armored Info built a secure cloud collaboration platform and AI Marketplace to let creators safely produce, share and monetize work. After vetting 32 providers they deployed Armor Complete for managed cloud security—implementing DDoS mitigation, IDS/IPS, log and vulnerability monitoring, MFA and more—and even exceeding PCI DSS standards. The result is a seamless, trusted virtual community that prevents theft, boosts credibility with clients and lets the company focus on enhancing the creative workflow.
