As part of the alliance, Bit9 + Carbon Black will transfer existing managed application control service (known as Bit9 Managed Administration Service) customers to Trustwave. Trustwave will also offer a Managed Application Control service—based on the Bit9 Security Platform—as part of its comprehensive portfolio of enterprise-grade managed security services.
Tom Barsi, vice president of business development for Bit9 + Carbon Black, said: “Trustwave is one of the best in the business when it comes to managed security services. Now equipped with the Bit9 Security Platform, the Trustwave team can offer its clients application control as a managed service. Given Trustwave’s history of innovation and its excellence in global service and security management, we are pleased Trustwave now provides the critical managed security services layer for application control customers who prefer this increasingly popular deployment model.”
John Amaral, senior vice president of product management at Trustwave, said: “The Bit9 Security Platform is a logical extension of our managed security services portfolio, and we welcome Bit9 + Carbon Black managed application control service customers to the Trustwave family. Bit9 + Carbon Black provides an essential and powerful solution that provides real-time endpoint and server application visibility and control and prevents threats that evade traditional security solutions.”
