Courion Announces Incorporation of India Technology Center
New Pune Operation Expands Research and Development Capabilities and Global Reach
Tweet-- Courion® Corporation, leaders in access governance, provisioning and compliance, today announced the official opening of the Courion IT Private Ltd. technology center in Pune, India. Following on the heels of strong financial performance and growth in Fiscal Year 2009, the new center will help meet increased customer demand for Access Assurance solutions by complementing the company's existing research and development capabilities.
Courion's Access Assurance Suite helps enterprises ensure that only the right people have the right access to the right resources and are doing the right things. By gaining a holistic view of their user access, customers are able to mitigate risk from inappropriate access and streamline compliance processes, resulting in the lowest total cost of ownership in the identity and access management (IAM) industry.
The Pune technology center will support the company's Courion Connector Program by adding to an already industry-leading library of more than 250 connectors. These connectors integrate the Access Assurance Suite with key enterprise applications to further improve support for specific industries such as healthcare, financial services, manufacturing and others.
"Courion's position in the IAM and overall security markets has enabled it to grow even as competitors and other industries have lost market share during the global economic recession. By expanding into India and increasing its research and development investment, Courion is bolstering its core technology and extending its leadership role," said Shishir Khedkar, director of development for Courion IT Private Ltd. "Pune's rich talent pool of tech-savvy engineers makes it the perfect place to set up shop, and Courion plans to grow its personnel base here to about 40 employees in 2010."
