DeepNines Opens Silicon Valley Office

DALLAS, TEXAS - DeepNines Technologies, the market leader in perimeter security and the first and only technology company to provide comprehensive router security, has opened a west coast headquarters located in San Jose, CA. The office will house research and development, engineering, regional sales teams and business development.

DeepNines was founded in 1999 and has its corporate headquarters in Dallas, TX. The company has seen tremendous growth of its converged security platform and was listed as one of Red Herring's "Top 10 Private Companies to Watch." Current research and development offices are in San Diego, CA, but with the move to Silicon Valley, DeepNines will be closer to important resources. This will give DeepNines the ability to speed up development of the company's converged security platforms, while continuing to be the only vendor to provide router protection.

"We have really advanced the development of our product in recent months and with the move to Silicon Valley, we now have the ability to deliver this important technology to the market even more quickly than before," said Jim Binder, vice president of engineering for DeepNines.
