As a global leader in endpoint management and security, Lumension Security, Inc. develops, integrates, and markets security software solutions that help businesses: 1) prevent data loss and theft by enforcing encryption policies for removable device usage; 2) identify and patch vulnerabilities across heterogeneous operating systems, configurations, and third-party applications; 3) ensure a trusted endpoint environment through the prevention of malware and unauthorized applications; 4) reduce total cost of compliance and manage the IT risk that matters most; and 5) discover all applications running on the network.
From 2010 through 2014, Lumension was positioned as a Visionary in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms.
In 2015, Lumension and FrontRange merged to create HEAT Software, driven by private equity firm Clearlake Capital. In January 2017, as part of the transaction by Clearlake to acquire LANDESK, Clearlake contributed HEAT Software to the new platform investment in LANDESK. As a result, a new company was established under the name Ivanti.
