Fortinet Joins Microsoft's SecureIT Alliance

By ChannelTimes Staff
International Desk, Feb 13, 2007

Fortinet, the provider of unified threat management (UTM) solutions, recently announced that it has become the newest member of the SecureIT Alliance - a group of industry partners working together to develop security solutions for the Microsoft platform.


As a member, Fortinet will be able to collaborate earlier and more interactively with Microsoft and other Alliance members, which, in turn, will allow it to respond more quickly to customer enquiries and concerns over vulnerabilities.

The SecureIT Alliance is a web-enabled collaboration forum between partners to help members build new security solutions and to communicate with customers about security solutions and partnerships. The Alliance provides a forum through which members can receive new platform information from Microsoft, and collaborate on issues such as secure-code best practices, interoperability, and integration of products and services, as well as public communication of security solutions content.

"As a multi-threat security leader, Fortinet is a welcome addition to the SecureIT Alliance," said Gerry Albert, at Microsoft, director of SecureIT Alliance. "With its global FortiGuard Network of security researchers, Fortinet provides an additional level of security expertise and solutions that will benefit both industry collaborators and IT professionals who rely on the Alliance to drive their development and decision-making."

Richard Stiennon, chief marketing officer for Fortinet, said, "As hackers become craftier, security companies must become more innovative in terms of thwarting attacker advances. SecureIT Alliance calls security thought leaders and innovators to action by giving us a forum in which to collaborate and communicate on the most dangerous and pressing industry matters. This alliance extends the benefits of Fortinet s FortiGuard Network to customers, by enabling a broader research network and more attention and faster response to critical vulnerabilities and potential threats."

Fortinet's FortiGuardNetwork provides continuous updates against the latest threats around the clock and around the world.
