    Alert Logic Completes Acquisition of Armorlogic to Expand Web Application Security Offerings

    Alert Logic's addition of Armorlogic's Profense™ Web application firewall (WAF) satisfies compliance mandates (including PCI DSS), protects against application layer threats

    Victoria, BC, Canada/Houston, TX (PRWEB) February 22, 2012

    Alert Logic, the leader in delivering Security-as-a-Service for the cloud, today announced the completion of the acquisition of Armorlogic, a leading developer of Web application security solutions. Alert Logic will combine the leading blocking capabilities of Armorlogic Profense WAF with its own proven Security-as-a-Service model to simultaneously increase the effectiveness and decrease the cost of deploying WAF solutions.

    The addition of Armorlogic’s Web application security offerings to Alert Logic’s Security-as-a-Service solutions will provide partners and customers a fully managed security solution for their Web-facing applications. An analysis of security events observed by Alert Logic found that Web application attacks are among the most common threats facing IT infrastructure, particularly infrastructure in hosted and cloud environments. Profense WAF complies with PCI DSS section 6.6, and provides web application security protection against the OWASP Top Ten critical risks facing organizations, including SQL Injection, Cross Site Scripting (XSS) and other threats.

    “Armorlogic has a reputation among its customers and partners for delivering world-class protection for Web applications while being easy to use,” said Alert Logic CEO Gray Hall. “As is often the case for emerging technology companies, great products meeting real customer needs are unable to achieve broad market penetration. Alert Logic’s ability to transform Armorlogic’s product into a fully managed SaaS offering, coupled with our outstanding partner network including the leading hosting and cloud service providers in the world, gives us the ability to bring a market-leading WAF solution to the market segment that needs it most.”

    Alert Logic will release a Software-as-a-Service version of Profense WAF within 60 days and announce its long-term product plans at that time. For more information, visit http://www.alertlogic.com/profense-waf.

    Alert Logic’s Security-as-a-Service solutions provide customers four distinct advantages: market-leading security tools, fully outsourced and managed SaaS delivery model, integrated 24×7 Security Operations Center (SOC) services to monitor and provide expert guidance, and deployment wherever a customer has IT infrastructure – including the cloud.
