Press Release

Alert Logic Continues 2007 Boom by Nearly Doubling Customers and Furthering Company Expansion

More Companies Looking to Alert Logic to Deliver On-Demand Network Security

HOUSTON - JULY 17, 2007 - Alert Logic, the award-winning network security company that leverages a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform to deliver on-demand protection to mid-sized businesses, today announced it has continued its explosive momentum by almost doubling its customer base in the first half of 2007 to 260 customers. This comes as the company has reached several significant milestones and continues to meet all of its product, revenue and corporate goals, including being awarded the prestigious Best Buy Award from SC Magazine.

Boosted by continued product innovation and the release of Threat Manager version 3.4, Alert Logic's customer base over the last six months has spread across a variety of industries and geographies, including the energy/oil/gas, financial, and retail sectors. The company has also seen significant growth in the managed hosting market, securing eight new reseller partnership deals with managed service providers.

"Mid-size businesses are becoming more aware that traditional security technology alone is not enough to keep their networks properly protected," said Alert Logic CEO Michael Turner, who helped expand the management team by joining the company in February. "Alert Logic's success is based on our unique ability to provide the proper protection for these networks without the typical hassle of deploying and managing a traditional network security solution."

As with large enterprises, mid-sized business IT networks are often highly distributed and vulnerable to attack. Mid-sized businesses are often responsible for protecting highly confidential customer data and are required to meet strict IT regulatory and industry compliance mandates. However, they do not generally have the resources of larger enterprises and cannot easily deploy and manage a sophisticated network security solution.

Alert Logic's on-demand security solution is the easiest way for mid-sized companies to meet these needs. For a flat monthly fee, no upfront hardware or software costs, and no additional staffing, Alert Logic offers mid-sized companies a hosted intrusion protection, vulnerability assessment, and IT compliance automation solution – as well as an optional 24x7 threat monitoring service – at a fraction of the cost of comparable products and services.

Alert Logic has been able to grow quickly by offering a unique Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) delivery model that delivers on-demand network protection. Facing a growing increase in IT threats and compliance issues, coupled with a shortage of affordable IT security options, medium-sized businesses have quickly turned to Alert Logic to help them meet their IT security needs.
