Burlington, Mass. – December 16, 2009– Veracode Inc., provider of the world’s leading cloud-based application risk management services platform, has been named a finalist in the Best Security Software Development Solution category in the 2010 SC Magazine Awards for outstanding achievement in information technology (IT) security. Veracode’s SecurityReview was also named as a premiere solution in the Reader Trust Award competition, which honors best-in-class security products and services.

Veracode’s SecurityReview was selected from more than 600 entries submitted in more than 31 technology categories. All finalists will be reviewed and winners will be chosen by the Reader Trust Voting Panel – comprised of security and technology experts from large, medium and small enterprises from all major vertical markets – representing the wide distribution of SC Magazine readers.

As the industry’s preeminent awards program, the annual SC Awards has recognized security’s key contributors and outstanding products for more than a decade. The SC Awards are designed to honor the professionals, companies and products that help fend off the myriad security threats confronted in today's corporate world. Individuals, brands and solutions recognized in the program address not only the security challenges prominent today, but also the emerging threat landscape of tomorrow.

“We are honored to have been named a finalist in the SC Awards,” said Matt Moynahan, CEO of Veracode. “Our continued success testifies to the power of our cloud-based business model and patented binary technology for providing application risk management. The recognition in the Best Security Software Development Solution category is especially important because it signifies that the development community is taking an active role in securing the software they create. The use of cloud-based technologies to assess code security is fundamentally easier and more cost-effective than legacy on-premises hardware and software tools.”
