Systancia Announces the Acquisition of IPdiva and Reinforces Its Leadership in the Secured Virtualised Environments Market

Online, December 9, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Nowadays all public and private entities (companies, authorities, hospitals…) question how to better protect their information systems in the face of diversity by means of access and the more effective proliferation threats out there.

At the same time, widespread IT virtualisation applications and desktops allow the development of new simpler, yet more efficient uses for their users, such as BYOD (Bring You Own Device), while representing strong economic sources.

With the acquisition of IPdiva, Systancia positions itself on the market with the first European solution that offers a highly secured access to any application, any job and any data from any place on any device. In addition, this security shall be in accordance with the control and traceability requirements for even the most sensitive of contexts.

This merger accelerates Systancia's strategy to be a key player in the immediate and secures access to information resource systems:

- For clients by providing a full range enabling them to provide enhanced security, applications, desktops and data relating to and irrespective of usage contexts including external mobility situations.

- For partners hosting cloud options by providing a coherent and integrated offer for secure publishing of applications and virtualised desktops, according to the strong demand for traceability, availability and performance criteria.

- And finally for users of its solutions being compatible with their diverse devices for access (including BYOD known for their simplicity).

"While being very agile and very effective in a widely dominated by North American suppliers market, the security actors need to be receptive to consolidate opportunities that may arise. We already have experience of commercial and technical collaboration with Systancia. It is therefore natural that we have responded positively to the merger-acquisition. Not only does it make sense for our customers who want consistent and integrated offerings, but it also gives us new opportunities for innovation in a dynamic market." says Yvonnick DAVID, CEO IPdiva.

"With this external growth, Systancia has acquired a recognition and appreciation in the field of computer security products. IPdiva's offer, with its strong centre for Research and Innovation, already recognised for its expertise, compliments and extends the AppliDis product. With IPdiva's strategic contribution to Systancia we become a benchmark within Europe and we can accelerate our business development in the face of major international players." explains Christophe CORNE, CEO Systancia.
