Verizon to merge Cybertrust Into Managed Security Services Group

Ellen Messmer writes on NetworkWorld:

With its acquisition of security vendor Cybertrust officially completed today, Verizon began discussing how it intends to merge Cybertrust with Verizon’s Business Managed Security Services group.

Cybertrust has four security operations centers (SOC) located in the cities of Atlanta; Canberra, Australia; and Leugen, Belgium, as well as one in Luxembourg dedicated solely to financial services customers.

Verizon operates SOCs in Cary, N.C., as well as two in the Virginia cities of Ashburn and Herndon. Now that Cybertrust is part of Verizon, said Kerry Bailey, vice president of security solutions for Verizon Busines, Verizon will provide a unified portal view into the combined services on behalf of customers, which total 2,600 enterprises and government organizations.
