Security Services Provider SecureWorks Expands Its Offerings to Include Managed Log Retention Powered by New Partner LogLogic

SAN JOSE, CA – December 9, 2008 – SecureWorks®, a leading information security services provider protecting over 2,000 clients, has added a managed log retention service to a variety of its current managed, monitored and on-demand service offerings. The new service, driven by a partnership with an industry-leading log management solution provider LogLogic®, will provide enterprises with comprehensive log aggregation, retention, searching and reporting.

As part of the new partnership, SecureWorks will manage LogLogic appliances and integrate LogLogic functionality into the SecureWorks Client Portal for blended reporting and workflow capabilities. SecureWorks will also monitor and correlate the logs, collected by LogLogic appliances, to identify and respond to security threats. In addition, SecureWorks will resell LogLogic appliances and support contracts.

"In this current regulatory environment, the ability to digest all the data logs from various devices is essential for compliance purposes," said Corey Merchant, Vice President of Product Management at SecureWorks. "LogLogic enhances our existing log monitoring by allowing us to collect, analyze and store all logs, not just security events of interest. It's just one more tool in our arsenal of managed security services we provide to keep clients safe and compliant. We are thrilled to be able to collaborate with LogLogic who has been paving the way for log management and intelligence for so long."

"We are pleased to be partnering with SecureWorks to provide customers a services-based log management solution for risk and compliance," said Robert Yusin, Executive Vice President, Worldwide Field Operations for LogLogic. "Utilizing the LogLogic Services-Oriented Architecture, SecureWorks offers clients an accelerated path to meet risk and compliance requirements."

The expanded service offerings will be available from SecureWorks on February 1, 2008.
