BreakingPoint Actionable Security Intelligence Solutions Drive Record Revenue Growth and Profitability
AUSTIN, TX, Mar 22, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
BreakingPoint today announced a fourth-straight year of record
annual revenue growth and profitability. During 2011, BreakingPoint
witnessed 42 percent year-over-year revenue growth and closed out the
year with the best quarter in the company's history. BreakingPoint's
spectacular ascension is a direct result of growing customer demand
for its Actionable Security Intelligence (ASI) solutions. Government
agencies, enterprises, carriers, and equipment vendors worldwide rely
on BreakingPoint ASI to provide global visibility into emerging
threats and actionable insight to harden and maintain resilient
defenses and IT infrastructures.
Actionable security intelligence that is proven and pragmatic
"Cyber attackers are winning, and our businesses and governments are
losing -- losing sensitive data, financial assets, operational
effectiveness and more," said Des Wilson, BreakingPoint CEO.
"Traditional cyber security approaches, simply reacting to attacks as
they appear, is archaic. And many vendors, while promising actionable
intelligence, have merely delivered dissociated and disparate tool
sets. BreakingPoint is witnessing profound growth because we have a
pragmatic and proven approach to providing actionable security
intelligence. Our patented technology is already helping hundreds of
organizations capture and control global threat intelligence at
Internet-scale, and use it to battle-test IT infrastructures, train
cyber warriors, tune systems and policies, and ultimately transform
security processes to be proactive and effective."
