Evigi Technologies and ComSec, Inc. announce a merger of equals

Evigi Technologies, a leading provider of network consulting services for Global 2000 and middle market companies; and ComSec, the leading security performance consulting firm, today announced they have merged to deliver unparalleled security services that have a quantifiable impact on network performance and availability. The new company will operate under the name of Evigi Technologies.

DALLAS, TX (PRWEB) July 14, 2004 -- ComSec customers will benefit from the merger by gaining immediate access to Evigi Technologies’ data assurance philosophy, which takes a blended, business-based approach to both data security and network management. Evigi Technologies’ customers will benefit from ComSec’s world-class patent-pending security performance management methodology and consulting services. All active ComSec direct and channel customer contracts and ComSec customers will receive uninterrupted service with the option of renewing service at the completion of their contracts.

“We are excited about combining our services and intellectual capital with Evigi Technologies,” said Jeromie Jackson, president and CEO of ComSec. “Together, we are a much larger and diverse company that can meet the extensive security and network performance needs of our customers. In addition, they will benefit greatly from our increased innovation and breadth of services. Our unique collection of consulting expertise, methodologies and technologies enable us to greater quantify the bottom-line impact a technology or process-based solution will have on our client’s business.”

Founded in 2001, Evigi Technologies assists companies by developing and delivering custom networking and security services, practical educational curriculum, and best-of-breed product recommendations from a purely objective, customer-centric perspective that has a substantive impact on network performance and security.

ComSec has extensive expertise defining and managing information security programs including those that must comply with government regulations such as FFIEC, HIPAA, GLB, and others. Only ComSec’s patent-pending methodology can quantify the bottom-line results and drive quality management for information security.

“As a result of this merger, Evigi Technologies is well-positioned to become the de-facto standard for quantifiable security consulting services and solutions,” said Ty Mellon, executive vice president at Evigi Technologies. “Unlike other firms, we provide organizations with evidence to quantify the effectiveness of their security program, by providing them with technology, policy and process analysis along with performance metrics to justify their technology spending decisions.” Together, Evigi Technologies and ComSec completely remove the ambiguity surrounding network security investments. In a recent report written by Forrester Research, 40% of all IT executives surveyed, stated their security dollars were spent on the wrong threats and risks. In addition, more than half of the respondents say that their security budgeting process is flawed. The fact is; networks are dynamic, changing environments. We enable our clients to put performance metrics in place so they can track the success of security investments and make educated, predictive decisions about their security program.
