St. Bernard Acquires Red Condor

Today, my client Red Condor, was officially acquired by St. Bernard Software, a leader in Web security appliances. Below is an excerpt from the official press release:

The acquisition builds upon the success of St. Bernard’s existing hybrid platform, which has served the SME market through a combination of high-performance appliances, software, and hosted security solutions. With the Web security market expected to grow to $2.3 billion by 2012, and the protection of leading applications such as email and messaging remaining a primary concern across global enterprises of all sizes, the acquisition of Red Condor’s managed security solutions is a natural extension of St. Bernard’s product portfolio and business strategy.

“This acquisition milestone is a truly exciting time for both St. Bernard and Red Condor, as it creates great opportunities for growth with our shared hybrid security vision,” said Lou Ryan, President and CEO at St. Bernard. “The strategic match we have found in Red Condor establishes greater breadth and depth in our hosted, hybrid and on-premises options, and increases the overall value to our customers and partners. With the integration of Red Condor’s carrier-grade technology and platform, we are perfectly positioned to accelerate our growth engine and work with an increasing and diversified base of customers across multiple security solutions.”
