Posted on: Wednesday, 13 July 2005, 09:00 CDT
PALO ALTO, Calif., July 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Fortify Software, Inc. today announced a number of top-tier customer wins including Bank of America, Fidelity, Goldman Sachs, Macromedia and Sygate. With the industry's most proven, accurate and effective solutions available to mitigate security risk and ensure application security, Fortify Software continues to enjoy significant customer adoption and accelerated deployment of its leading software security solutions in critical vertical markets such as Financial Services and Network Security.
"Fortify's rapid growth strongly reinforces evidence that leading companies know network perimeters alone cannot stop today's hackers," said John M. Jack, CEO of Fortify Software. "Because most attacks target applications, software security products are on the verge of widespread awareness and adoption. Fortify Software gives customers the industry's most proven products to secure their business from the inside out by fortifying the software itself."
Enterprise customers are choosing Fortify's automated software security solutions to build, test and deploy secure applications. Leading financial services firms such as Bank of America, Fidelity and Goldman Sachs as well as commercial technology product vendors Sygate and Macromedia headline a number of new customers added within the most recent quarter. Combined with existing customers such as Wells Fargo, eBay and Financial Engines, Fortify Software is quickly becoming the de facto vendor of choice for software security products.
"As the leading provider of Network Access Control (NAC) solutions, we understand how important security is to our customers and our business," said Mark Kadrich, CISSP & Senior Scientist, Sygate Technologies. "We continually evaluate new technologies and products in this space to make our software secure. Fortify is the clear winner for many reasons, including their superior analysis and reporting capabilities, and most importantly, their understanding and support of how security fits into the software development lifecycle."
Fortify Software products help organizations identify, track and manage software vulnerabilities across the development lifecycle to mitigate risk. Fortify's Source Code Analysis product includes sophisticated source code analyzers and reporting capabilities for discovering and prioritizing security vulnerabilities in software code. As the industry's only cross-tier source code security analysis product, it is capable of following data paths in pursuit of security vulnerabilities across tiers, regardless of programming language. Part of Fortify's suite of Source Code Analysis products, the Fortify Audit Workbench, combines Fortify's innovative source code analyzers with a powerful user interface to enable development organizations and security audit teams to rapidly organize, investigate and prioritize results so security flaws can be corrected before dangerous worms, hackers and malicious users can exploit them.
