Corsec Security, Inc. Has Moved... Again

Herndon, VA, August 04, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Corsec, the premier partners for IT companies worldwide to manage the process of security certifications and validations has announced they have moved office locations. In response to client demand, Corsec has recently relocated their global headquarters to Herndon, Virginia. The significantly larger space houses critical infrastructure and a growing staff of tech professionals. The new facility is equipped with comprehensive security features as well as FIPS 140-2 validated and Common Criteria certified products, boosting security for client’s intellectual property.

The Changing Nature of Security Threats
Security breaches from Target to Sony, to the U.S. government, have become a daily occurrence. The consequences—loss of personal data and confidence, denial of service, and impact to critical infrastructure—are now forcing CIOs, CEOs and CISOs to mandate third-party validation best practices as prerequisites to enterprise systems. As security threats move into consumer interests, everyday people face what was once seen as exclusively a federal or corporate challenge. While security certifications and validations do not prevent attacks entirely, they do ensure best practices in product security development, which helps mitigate risks and the potential impact to consumers and governments alike. With certifications and security validations, consumers are better prepared to deal with potential security breaches.
