Now UncommonX, Still Security for All
Since 2012, we’ve delivered exceptional, enterprise-class security in the face of growing threats, overwhelming tool choices and underwhelming services. That hasn’t changed. But as we approach our tenth anniversary, we realized we’ve evolved to the point where our former name no longer fit.
So we created a new one. A name that not only reflects our vastly expanded and improved technology-driven services, but also defines our truly distinctive approach to solving complex challenges.
Because today more than ever, you need uncommon thinking, services, people and dedication to provide truly effective secure IT efficiency and protection. We’re now UncommonX, and we’re ready to get to work for you.
"We believe every organization, regardless of size, is entitled to full-service enterprise-class digital security at an affordable price. We’re dedicated to delivering real impact by empowering you to make informed decisions about your risks so you can stop attacks before they happen."
-John Morris, CEO
Vision
That every small - and mid-sized organization will have access to affordable enterprise-class digital security and protection.
Mission
To provide better protection to all organizations by simplifying security and helping them integrate it with their business objectives.
