Network-Security Analyst Says Technology Companies Offering More Assurances to Enterprises in Downturn Market

RESTON, VA--(Marketwire - October 6, 2008) - Leading industry analyst Richard Stiennon today said that network-security companies' sales are staying strong despite the downturn market, adding that some technology companies are offering more assurances to enterprises to bolster sales. Stiennon pointed to AlgoSec Inc., a leading provider of firewall operations and security risk management solutions, for its satisfaction guarantee policy.

"Despite the current economic condition many technology companies are continuing to increase their revenue by providing solutions that offer enterprises real and often quantifiable returns on their investments," said Stiennon, chief research analyst at IT-Harvest. "AlgoSec, which intelligently automates network security management, is one of those companies but they have gone even beyond that by offering a unique satisfaction guarantee policy which goes beyond try-before-you-buy."

The AlgoSec Firewall Analyzer (AFA) is being used by more than 200 enterprises to automate what are traditionally difficult, and time-consuming issues surrounding firewall, router and VPN administration, audit and compliance.

"Customer satisfaction has always been our number one priority and the foundation upon which AlgoSec is built," said Yuval Baron, AlgoSec CEO and Co-Founder. "We are committed to excellence and instituted our money-back satisfaction guarantee policy from the outset and for us satisfaction is defined by our clients. We are happy that it provides the extra assurance some enterprises may need especially in this economy and we are pleased that it has never been utilized."
