Cisco buys IronPort
CISCO is to buy email and web security firm IronPort Systems for $US830 million ($1.06 billion) to tap growing demand for anti-virus and anti-spam software.
The acquisition of the privately held software and equipment vendor is Cisco's latest move to grow by integrating niche technologies that complement its main product line of routers and switches, which direct internet traffic. Cisco said the acquisition, its fifth-largest, would enable the company to offer corporate clients a more comprehensive range of products. IronPort is known for "reputation filters" that block spam by examining a sender's record. Blocking spam can help a company save bandwidth, as well as save employees the trouble of combing through unwanted email messages. "IronPort has a reputation on filtering where they know the reputations of people who are sending emails or generating internet traffic," said Richard Palmer, senior vice president of Cisco's security technology group.
