<snip> SAN FRANCISCO--Symantec has acquired Web security firm Mi5 Networks and announced two new security suites at the RSA security conference on Tuesday.
Mi5 sells a Web security appliance that protects corporations against Web-based threats. Symantec will integrate the technology into its offerings later in 2009 and offer it as a stand-alone product, Joan Fazio, director of product marketing for Symantec Endpoint Security, said in an interview. The all-cash transaction was completed in March, she said, declining to disclose the terms. </snip> Interesting move... Seems like they could have taken endpoint and slapped an appliance around it. I wonder what the $$$ terms were. http://news.cnet.com/8301-1009_3-10223697-83.html -- Regards, Alex Lanstein Network/Systems Architect FireEye, Inc. http://blog.fireeye.com _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
