Cigital acquires SaaS-based security testing firm iViZ

NEW DELHI: Software security services provider Cigital will acquire iViZ Security, a cloud-based web and mobile application security testing services firm for an undisclosed amount.

Founded in 2006 by former IITians, iViZ Security is a 60-people product company. The IDG Ventures funded-firm recorded a revenue growth of 57 per cent last year.

The firm built the world's first automated and on-demand testing product allowing companies to use a self-serve ethical hacking platform on the cloud.

"Our vision is to help organisations stay one step ahead of hackers by making penetration testing scalable and affordable through product innovations," iViZ CEO Bikash Barai said.
