Blackbox BI Consultancy Selects MicroStrategy Usher™ for Enterprise Security

TYSONS CORNER, Va., April 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- MicroStrategy^® Incorporated MSTR, a leading worldwide provider of enterprise software platforms, today announced that MicroStrategy customer Blackbox BI Consultancy Sdn Bhd has selected MicroStrategy Usher to secure its enterprise cyber assets and facilities with its customers. With deep domain knowledge in the retail sector, Blackbox BI Consultancy was established in Malaysia to help retailers across the South East Asia region harness business analytics solutions to increase business performance and gain competitive advantage. 

Blackbox BI Consultancy relies on the MicroStrategy Analytics Platform™ to offer cloud-based retail analytics solutions to its wide spectrum of clients that span across the fashion, home furnishing, consumer durable, groceries, convenience stores, food and beverage, and healthcare industries. Blackbox BI Consultancy will introduce MicroStrategy Usher to a segment of its customer base to create a new customer experience.  It will replace traditional forms of enterprise identity with mobile identity badges securely delivered on smartphones, and will ultimately deploy Usher as its enterprise identity management solution integrated into its MicroStrategy Mobile application to a wider audience of SenHeng customers to create an exceptional customer experience.

"Our business at SenHeng is to create a unique customer experience with our products and services and that is our key differentiator in the market," said KH Lim, Founder of SenHeng Electric Sdn Bhd. "Based on our successful deployment of MicroStrategy's analytics and mobile technologies as cloud-based analytics solutions, it made sense for us to select MicroStrategy Usher as an enterprise security offering for today's security-critical environment. MicroStrategy Usher will be used to access business processes and applications across the enterprise, replacing keycards and passwords with mobile identity badges securely delivered on smartphones. An Usher badge will be used to identify both SenHeng Electric's customers as well as SenHeng mobile service's customers. Having a single MicroStrategy platform for analytics, mobile and identity management will help us create a new, valuable customer experience."

"We are pleased to count Blackbox BI Consultancy as a new customer of MicroStrategy Usher," said Jonathan Klein, President, MicroStrategy Incorporated.  "It's clear that identity management and the security of corporate data are front-and-center concerns for organizations today.  Leading companies, including Blackbox, are teaming up with MicroStrategy and deploying MicroStrategy Usher's breakthrough security technology to defend their core assets while empowering employees with mobile identity badges securely delivered on their smartphones."
