Rev2 Announces Partnership with Application Security, Inc.

VALHALLA, N.Y., SEPTEMBER 21, 2010 — Rev2 announced today the signing of a formal agreement with Application Security, Inc. (AppSec), as part of its newly announced Data Security Alliance program.

“AppSec, with their industry leading database security, risk and compliance solutions across virtually all industry verticals, is a strategic fit with our focus on Enterprise Risk Management,” said Steve Olyha, Chief Operating Officer of Rev2. “This partnership continues to enhance our ability to provide business decision support across all aspects of the Information Security and ERM environments, including the application, process, infrastructure, and data domains. Many of the solutions that AppSec delivers are in fact key data sources for RiskView®, the Rev2 risk data warehouse and visualization engine that helps companies identify areas of under and over-controlled business risk”.

The RiskView integration with AppSec’s industry leading DbProtect solution adds functionality that is complementary to DbProtect’s reporting and analytics engine. The result is more robust and impactful decision making, immediate value-add, improved ROI, and reduced costs while at the same time improving an organizations risk profile. The integrated solution identifies specifically what risks or vulnerabilities that DbProtect has identified should be mitigated first based on their business materiality, and what the resulting change in an organization’s risk profile will be. Critically, it also provides a “what-if” analytic capability to test the various mitigation actions that can be taken, proving immediate business value and business case support for risk mitigation activities. As part of the partnership, AppSec will provide integration and deployment support for the integrated solution, as well as first line support.

“Rev2’s technology is a perfect complement to DbProtect’s analytics and reporting engine,” said Josh Shaul, VP Product management, AppSec. “By categorizing the vulnerabilities discovered by DbProtect and prioritizing them based on business risk, CSOs and CISOs are able to more rapidly and efficiently secure their database assets.”
