Macnica Networks Corp. (Corporate Office: 1-5-5 Shin-Yokohama Kohoku-ku Yokohama; President: Masahiro Miyabukuro; hereafter, “Macnica Networks”), the leading value added distributor of innovative network devices and software products, announces the recent establishment of a solely-owned subsidiary, Macnica Solutions Corp. (Corporate Office: 1-5-5 Shin-Yokohama Kohoku-ku Yokohama; President: Shigenori Mori; hereafter, “Macnica Solutions”). Macnica Solutions commenced operations on May 1st 2011, and represents a new solution delivery model for IT services and corporate-oriented products.
 
Macnica Networks has to date provided technical and consulting services, and primarily hardware and software products, for information communication systems and corporate networks. The slogan of the newly-founded Macnica Solutions is “Nowhere but Here: proposing what’s ‘Nowhere’ else, creating what’s only ‘Here’.” In addition to the added-value technical product support that Macnica Networks excels in, Macnica Solutions builds and supplies new business models for the sales and support supply chain, such as comprehensive support services for corporate IT systems, from installation to operation level.
 
Macnica Solutions primarily offers security monitoring services and scalable security solutions targeting large networks.
 
Security monitoring services will cover a wide variety of security products, particularly those that are not currently supported by domestic security monitoring service companies.
 
Security solutions targeting large networks will be powered by partner’s highly scalable next generation security platform. As a new member of Macnica Networks Group, Macnica Solutions will be responsible for delivering a wide range of “Best of Breed” security solutions with optimum sales and technical support systems.
 
Macnica Solutions is committed to strive for an ever more distinctive presence in the Macnica Networks Group with low-cost, high-quality technical services via its new business models.

Security Monitoring Service

“There are two major issues in today’s security monitoring services provided in Japan. One is high cost and the other is limited number of supported devices”, says Shigenori Mori, President of Macnica Solutions.
 
Solutionary, Inc. (hereafter, “Solutionary”), with its intelligent security analysis and event normalization platform “ActiveGuard®”, can provide highly scalable and device agnostic security services at very low cost.
 
Solutionary's security monitoring service covers almost all products handled by Macnica Networks and Macnica Solutions. As a result, customers who purchase Macnica Networks Group products can enjoy a one-stop total service from design to operation level that includes technical support, on-site maintenance and security monitoring services.
