ROSWELL, GA--(Marketwire - February 2, 2011) - AlgoSec, the market leader for Network Security Policy Management, today announced the expansion of its AlgoSec Channel Partner Program. The enhanced program invites qualified security solution resellers to develop a long-lasting and profitable joint business relationship in AlgoSec's fast-growth market.

More than 90 percent of AlgoSec's business is conducted through the channel partner program. In 2011, AlgoSec plans to recruit resellers positioned in the firewall market as it seeks to become a 100 percent channel-driven business.

"In addition to a great product offering, AlgoSec is very responsive to customer needs, quickly implementing customer feature requests to support the sales cycle."
