SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - Feb 28, 2012) - RSA 2012, Booth # 2736 -- STEALTHbits Technologies, the provider of the industry's most comprehensive IT management and compliance platform for Microsoft-based systems, applications and data repositories, today announced it has acquired NetVision, Inc., an access rights, reporting and monitoring solutions specialist. The acquisition allows STEALTHbits to extend its product portfolio to the mid-market and offer channel-ready solutions that combine enterprise-class scalability and performance with turnkey functionality.

"We've enjoyed tremendous success over the past decade in delivering robust and scalable solutions that truly bridge the gap between IT management and compliance for Fortune 500 companies," said Steve Cochran, CEO of STEALTHbits Technologies. "With the acquisition of NetVision, we're now strategically positioned to extend our product line even further by providing our solutions to all market segments both directly and through the channel, meaning mid-market customers will now have access to the advanced technology that our larger enterprise customers have enjoyed, but with out-of-the-box functionality priced according to each organization's needs."

STEALTHbits has consolidated the companies' development, sales, marketing, and customer service to best serve both companies' new and existing customers. STEALTHbits will leverage some of NetVision's technology assets to complement its series of comprehensive solutions that address the toughest business problems in IT infrastructure, application management and compliance. All products will be developed, marketed, supported, and sold under the STEALTHbits brand.

"We're very excited to be joining forces with STEALTHbits," said David Rowe, former CEO of NetVision and current general manager at STEALTHbits Technologies. "Our technologies and customer bases are extremely complementary and we expect immediate synergies in the development of more advanced, out-of-the-box solutions for our mid-market customers."
