The RSA Conference is over, expo contacts are converting to real relationships and March's first agency security client has just signed on. We're excited to continue helping NCP Engineering build recognition in the U.S. as they have in Germany. A tall order for sure, being the leading network access control (i.e. VPN) provider in that country.

What have we done for them so far? Built key relationships with media / analysts, raised the issue of WLAN security to (IN)Security Magazine's and Security Matters' readers, and informed Best Security Tips', Dark Reading's audience about key solutions from NCP (far more than this of course, like the review eWeek is conducting and the full tech briefing John Girard of Gartner has requested).

Security isn't new to the team - with a combined experience representing McAfee, Verdasys, @Stake (now a Symantec company), Texas Instruments RFid Systems, Caveo Technology, PDA Defense, and many others.

So our practice is officially off the ground and the team is excited about the challenges ahead.
