ELU Accelerated Return Notes Linked TO The Phlx Semiconductor Index

eLinear, Inc. (AMEX:ELU), and Alert Logic today announced a strategic partnership to provide network security services on a subscription basis to organizations in the Middle East. As part of the alliance, eLinear Solutions will serve as exclusive provider of the Alert Logic Invision Security(TM) network threat management solution in the region. This partnership enables organizations in the Middle East to purchase Alert Logic products from a trusted in-region services firm. "Alert Logic has developed one of the most effective and unintrusive solutions for protecting internal networks against known and unknown vulnerabilities, intrusions and worms. The company's around-the-clock managed services model allows eLinear to offer network protection capabilities that are largely unavailable to organizations in the Middle East today," said Ramzi Nassar, President of eLinear Solutions Middle East. "Given the complexity of managing intrusion detection and prevention systems, most organizations in the Middle East lack the resources required to deploy and maintain this technology. Together, eLinear and Alert Logic will make network threat management available to companies of all sizes." "While most organizations today have deployed perimeter security products, network worms and malicious attackers can still easily bypass firewalls and traditional IDS/IPS solutions to disrupt networks. The challenge for many enterprises, especially in the Middle East market, is securing their network without adding layers of complexity and additional IT staff," said Michael Stoeger, Director of Business Development and Channel Sales for Alert Logic. "Through this partnership, we are combining eLinear's proven networking services capabilities with Alert Logic's subscription-based threat management products to make complex network security methods more accessible to organizations in the Middle East."
