Today's enterprise business environment has been built on a foundation of increasingly complex networks. And, with the fear of a breach and potential losses measured in billions, securing those networks has reached a new level of urgency. Hackers are attacking with increasing frequency and sophistication, targeting mission-critical custom applications and corporate assets. As these attacks spread globally, no network is immune. Applications that run enterprises, connect partners, and communicate with customers are in imminent danger. And with seventy-five percent of attacks tunneling in through applications, and others through breaches of firewalls and network intrusion detection systems, there is a real need for an innovative, cost effective new approach to application security. Sana Security delivers solutions that meet this need conquering the complexity and cost escalation faced by enterprise security managers with products that provide simple and effective protection for all applications, on all platforms, against all attacks. The company was founded in October, 2000 by Steven Hofmeyr and is headquartered in San Mateo, CA.
