A Continued Commitment to Open Source
A Continued Commitment to Open SourceEarlier today Cisco announced a definitive agreement to acquire Sourcefire. Marty Roesch has detailed the announcement on our corporate blog, but we want to make sure that you, our friends and community, are especially assured of Cisco’s commitment to maintaining our innovation and support of our open source projects. As Marty writes:
“I created Snort in 1998 to provide value-added security solutions for open source and address big problems that no one else could solve. We later expanded that open source commitment to ClamAV… The best news in all of this, especially for our partners, customers and open source users, is that Cisco is committed to accelerate the realization of our vision into the market. We’ll be able to more quickly innovate, develop and provide products and technologies that continue to solve your biggest security challenges. And not just for commercial and government solutions – they are committed to continued innovation and support of our open source projects, too.”
