OVERLAND PARK, KS--(Marketwire - July 20, 2010) - Secure Passage, the leading provider of firewall policy, risk and compliance management solutions, today announced that it has been selected by Everything Channel as a Computer Reseller News Top 25 Emerging Security Vendor for 2010. The annual list recognizes companies that offer innovative and easy-to-use technology that delivers high margins for solution providers.
In response to the growing demand for innovative firewall management, Secure Passage launched FireMon eVolution (5.0) in July 2009. FireMon eVolution is the industry's first firewall management solution to provide a comprehensive and integrated set of features, including three industry firsts: rule lifecycle documentation, traffic flow analysis and a Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliance reporting framework.
"Solution providers are always looking for new and innovative technology to solve business problems for their customers. As this industry has shown, today's emerging vendor can be tomorrow's Cisco, Google or Facebook, and getting ahead of technology can help VARs grow their business and differentiate their offerings," said Kelley Damore, vice president, editorial director, Everything Channel.
The vendors that make up the CRN Emerging Technology Vendor list were founded in 2004 or later, have revenue under $1 billion and have an active U.S. channel strategy. Final selection to the Emerging Technology Vendor list was made by the CRN editorial team after a review of submitted information.
