March 4, 2008 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Security solutions provider Alert Logic (alertlogic.net) announced on Tuesday that wholesale technology provider Ingram Micro (ingrammicro.com) Services Division will offer Alert Logic's on-demand IT compliance and security solutions under the company's own brand names.
Ingram Micro will offer Alert Logic's new managed services under the brand name of Seismic Log Manager and Seismic Threat Manager to its more than 40,000 solution providers and managed service providers throughout North America. "Our partnership with Ingram Micro's Services Division further validates Alert Logic's role as a leader in delivering SaaS-based IT compliance and security solutions," says Dan Sell, VP of sales at Alert Logic. "By incorporating Log Manager and Threat Manager into the Ingram Micro Seismic services portfolio we will gain greater exposure, more reach into the MSP community and expand our ability to address the growing demand for our solutions."
Alert Logic Log Manager is designed to enable compliance with regulations such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Alert Logic says the solution provides effective network defense against security threats, such as viruses and worms.
Last month, Alert Logic announced it entered into a partnership agreement with Web hosting provider Hostway.

We had thousands of ballots submitted, with hundreds of write-in suggestions and a demonstration of user engagement that has us feeling super positive about the project.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through. We set out to assemble a blueprint for a small hosting business, but butted up pretty quickly against the general impossibility of covering all the territory that was out there to be covered. The basic constraints of a printed magazine, and the less-than-infinite amount of time we had available forced us to face the fact that we could never produce an exhaustive guide to starting a hosting company.
