Cenzic Launches Its Strategic Advisory Board to Guide Momentous Growth

Web Application Security Provider Welcomes Pioneers From British Telecom, SAP, Stanford University, Tripwire and White Pine Consulting Group to Advisory Board

SANTA CLARA, CA–(EMWNews – August 18, 2008) – Cenzic

Inc., the leading provider of application security vulnerability

assessment and risk management solutions, today announced the formation of

the Cenzic Web Application Security Strategic Advisory Board. Industry

notables Lloyd Hession, former chief security officer at British Telecom

Radianz, John Mitchell, professor of computer science and electrical

engineering at Stanford University, Dr. Sachar Paulus, senior vice

president of product security at SAP, Dan Schoenbaum, senior vice president

of marketing and corporate development at Tripwire, and Craig Weinstock,

partner at White Pine Consulting Group, have signed on to provide strategic

and business guidance as company growth accelerates.

“We’ve seen a significant increase in business need for Web application

security solutions across a wide range of industry sectors, as more

organizations are using the Web to facilitate their business methods,” said

John Weinschenk, CEO of Cenzic. “As our company is starting to see

tremendous growth with an established leadership, we have selected an elite

group of individuals for our strategic advisory board. This group can add a

lot of value in our strategic direction and help in our continued success.”

The Strategic Advisory Board will help guide and influence Cenzic’s growth

strategy, critical partnerships, continued innovation and overall corporate

direction.

Cenzic has continued to grow its business across various markets — from

banking to education to telecommunications — where organizations are

reaping the benefits of Cenzic’s Web application security solutions. The

application security industry is showing astounding growth of more than 100

percent year over year, and companies are starting to roll out solutions

throughout their enterprises instead of on an ad-hoc strategy. Companies

are now starting to focus on not only Web applications going through

development or maintenance but also all the deployed Web applications using

virtualization. Cenzic is already known as the innovative leader in the

space with many new and dynamic solutions, such as its recent

first-to-market integration with VMWare.

“Application security testing should be applied across the entire software

lifecycle (SLC), from design to programming, to Q.A., to production, as

vulnerabilities can transpire at each SLC phase,” said Joseph Feiman, vice

president and Gartner Fellow. “Adoption of application security testing

technologies and practices should be a strategic objective in the

enterprises’ efforts to secure their mission-critical application assets.”

“As members of Cenzic’s Strategic Advisory Board, it is a great opportunity

to interact with a diverse group of experienced individuals to discuss

issues and influence the Web application security landscape which is

experiencing unprecedented growth,” said Dan Schoenbaum, vice president of

business development and marketing at Tripwire and a founding Advisory

Board member. “Cenzic is known as the innovative and dynamic leader in the

industry and we are looking forward to collectively working to help guide

the company’s direction as it moves to new levels.”
