CA has agreed to purchase Eurekify for an undisclosed sum. The deal is meant to deepen CA's ability to offer role-based identity and compliance management and is the fruit of several months of collaboration between the two vendors.CA has made a deal to snag Eurekify in a bid to deepen CAs abilities in role-based identity and compliance management.
The terms of the deal were not disclosed, but the purchase is the
culmination of several months of collaboration on the integration and
sale of Eurekify technology as part of the larger CA Security
Management Business Unit solution. At the center of Eurekifys role
modeling capabilities is an engine that uses pattern-based analytics to
reduce the time and effort involved in role management.
With this acquisition, CA officials hope to deliver deeper product
integration, as well continue to develop and extend the technology
around role-based, business-driven identity management and access
control.
By bringing together two leaders in identity management, CAs
acquisition of Eurekify is transforming the market dynamics in that
highly fragmented sector, said Dave Hansen, corporate senior vice
president and general manager of CA Security Management, in a
statement. Eurekify is CAs second acquisition in the security space
in two months, coming on the heels of our purchase of IDFocus in
October. These acquisitions, along with our organically developed
products, ensure CAs continued strength in the growing security
market.
The deal is expected to close by the end of the month.
