AlgoSec is a network security software company based in New Jersey in the United States.[1] The organization provides software for network security policy management, also known as firewall policy management.[2]

The company's products are designed to automate the management and enforcement of security policies across firewalls, routers, virtual private networks (VPNs), and related security devices. They are intended to manage the configuration of their security systems, identify vulnerabilities, test the systems against their security policies,[3] and ensure compliance to regulations such as PCI-DSS and Sarbanes-Oxley.[4]

History

AlgoSec's core technology was developed in 2001 by Prof. Avishai Wool and his team of researchers at Bell Laboratories. Wool and Yuval Baron founded AlgoSec in November 2004.[5] At that time, the company was headquartered in Reston, Virginia.[citation needed]

In 2010, AlgoSec moved its headquarters and North American sales office to Roswell, Georgia (Atlanta area). In 2012, AlgoSec moved its headquarters to Ridgefield Park, New Jersey. Today, in addition to its Boston office, AlgoSec has sales offices in London and Singapore, and a Research and Development Center in Petah Tikva, Israel and London.[citation needed]
