Sage Data Security
is now Tyler Cybersecurity
PORTLAND, Maine (Oct. 21, 2019) – Sage Data Security,
which was acquired by Tyler Technologies
(NYSE: TYL) in May 2018, announced its official name change to Tyler
Cybersecurity in front of nearly 200 clients and industry professionals at last
week’s CyberCrime Symposium in Portland, Maine.
Sage was founded in 2002 and offers a suite of services that
supports an entire cybersecurity lifecycle, including program development,
education and training, threat detection, technology testing, advisory services,
and digital forensics. The investment by Tyler has enabled Sage to further its
mission of protecting the national infrastructure while expanding its mission
to serve the public sector. As Tyler Cybersecurity, it will continue to support
private sector needs and maximize public sector opportunities through education
and service engagements.
“Since the beginning, our mission has been to help protect
our national infrastructure. We believe that cybersecurity is a civic
responsibility,” said Rick Simonds, general manager and vice president of Tyler
Cybersecurity. “Our decision to rebrand to Tyler Cybersecurity has not changed
this.”
Cyberattacks targeted at local governments have steadily
increased over the years. The decision to join forces allows Tyler to provide
clients with advanced cybersecurity services that improve their cyber
resiliency, while enabling Tyler Cybersecurity to continue innovating and
developing its impressive suite of cybersecurity solutions.
“The importance of regular cybersecurity hygiene cannot be
overstated with the pace of change in today’s threat environment, and we are
positioned to meet the challenge head on and strengthen the defenses of our
clients and the communities they serve,” Simonds continued.
Tyler Cybersecurity has invested in numerous improvements
since the acquisition. It recently launched a new portal for Tyler Detect, its
Managed Threat Detection Service, and has made multiple enhancements to
professional service offerings, including an updated Configuration and
Vulnerability Assessment (CAVA) methodology and new remote collection
capabilities for vulnerability assessments and penetration testing.
With this change, the business unit sees opportunity. Tyler
Cybersecurity will continue to work towards creating solutions that both
satisfy regulatory drivers and mitigate risk as it builds regularity and
consistency in testing, assessing, and analyzing clients’ cybersecurity posture
while still relying on the element of human expertise.
Increased efficiencies and improved accuracy will ensure
that Tyler Cybersecurity can meet the changing and different needs of the
private and public sectors in the immediate and long-term future.
