London, 23 february 2010 - Wallix, a specialist in IT security solutions for identity and access management (IAM), has opened an office in Reading (England) in order to launch its activities in the UK. Wallix’s innovative Wallix AdminBastion (WAB) traceability tool allows a company to control connections and record all operations performed on its equipment or IT infrastructure.
Jean-Noël de Galzain, Chief Executive of Wallix, says, “The British market is the major European market and we have decided to develop our business here as a matter of priority. In view of the success already achieved by WALLIX AdminBastion and the growing interest of our clients in the Benelux countries, Switzerland and France, we believe it is time to launch our operations in Great Britain where IT security is – rightly – a critical issue. With an on-site team and a network of professional integrators and dealers with high added value, we will be in a position to maintain a high level of responsiveness and quality in the support of our products – a trademark of WALLIX.”
WALLIX AdminBastion (WAB) is an innovative and secure appliance that combines identity management, access control and traceability of IT operations. In order to launch this product on the British market, WALLIX is opening an office in Reading (in the Thames Valley, west of London).
Juliette Lacoste, WALLIX EMEA Partners Manager, will run the team based in Reading and will lead the company’s network of partners. She confirms, “The specificity and the potential of the British market necessitate the establishment of a local site with dedicated resources, which is now in place. Today, the team is ready to take up the challenge of access control and traceability, along with our technical and commercial partners. We have already identified 50 WAB projects, which constitutes a first and highly motivating challenge for the company.”
In the UK, WALLIX uses an indirect sales strategy, as it does in France, where the company has partnership agreements with international groups such as Alcatel-Lucent and Integralis. WALLIX is actively recruiting commercial partners in the UK, and is focusing on renowned integrators specialising in information systems.
WALLIX AdminBastion (WAB) offers a genuine all-in-one secure solution, providing the necessary level of surveillance for high-risk accounts, privilege accounts and administrator accounts with access to company data. WAB enables access control, traceability and session recording of both internal and external operators intervening in an IT system.

Wallix aims to raise the level of IT security
and it is sharing some of its insights in a White Paper entitled:
"IT systems: control over external service providers"
Paris, 19 January 2010 – The growing trend of outsourcing IT services is forcing companies to open up access to increasing numbers of outsiders. As they are not directly employed by the company, they present a global IT security risk that is difficult to control: information capture, destruction of sensitive data, taking control remotely, loss of control, irreversibility etc . Implementing a traceability solution, at any level of the network, makes it possible to track the operations being carried out in the company and establish responsibility for any malfunctions.
In 2008, a third of companies, and over 72% of companies employing more than 150 people, called on external IT providers. Faced with this growing need, monitoring and tracking the actions performed on the computer network have become indispensable to avoid a risk with potentially disastrous and very costly consequences," according to Jean-Noel Galzain, the Wallix CEO. "This white paper lays the groundwork for a policy on managing IT providers, and assesses the risks inherent in outsourcing, with its high turnover of personnel. It also offers simple, practical answers to help IT and security managers establish a coherent information system security policy."
