Outpost24

Outpost24 is a Swedish IT Security company that offers vulnerability assessment and management solutions, delivered as a Software-as-a-Service(SaaS) for on-demand perimeter vulnerability assessment and management and also as a plug-and-play appliance for internal vulnerability assessment.

Founded in 2001, Outpost24 is headquartered in Karlskrona,Sweden, with local offices in over 25 countries. In 2006, Outpost24 acquired Dyad Security, a Manual Security Testing and Training company, based in Newport Beach, California.

In 2008, a Senior Security Researcher at Outpost24 AB, Jack C. Louis, discovered a generic issue that affects the availability of TCP services.The internal program for carrying out the attack, Sockstress was disclosed to vendors and standards communities with full cooperation.

Deletion of Outpost24

It isn't really up to me to explain. As you will see, thanks to you I spotted the Qualys article and have tagged it. However, the claims of notability made by this article are greater than yours, and most of the promotional content was not present when the article was first created but seem to have been added later. That's the main reason I haven't deleted that one as well.

Do you have a conflict of interest? If so, you should take care. If a company/product is truly notable, then someone else will create an article about it eventually. Deb (talk) 12:52, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
