BASINGSTOKE-based IT security specialist Accumuli has announced it has bought big data analytics firm EQALIS for £1.9m.
This latest deal is in line with Accumuli’s strategy of acquiring organisations that complement the group’s existing expertise and capabilities.
Bracknell-based EQALIS helps organisations to monitor, manage and gain end-to-end visibility of their security and operational risks.
The deal complements Accumuli’s security incident and event management (SIEM) solutions and will strengthen the company’s big data monitoring and analytics capabilities.
Accumuli chief executive Gavin Lyons, based at Tuscany House, in White Hart Lane, Basingstoke, said: “The key to successfully mitigating IT security threats, detecting incidents and responding to breaches is the ability to access and analyse large quantities of data in real time across an organisation’s entire IT assets.
“This level of intelligence and visibility enables companies to prioritise actions, respond to incidents, improve processes and enhance controls.
“Big data monitoring and analytics is now intrinsically linked with security and operational excellence and EQALIS has been addressing these challenges and delivering great results to its customers for the last six years.”
