Web and e-mail security provider M86 Security was set to announce on Tuesday the acquisition of Finjan. Finjan brings to the table a secure Web gateway product and software-as-a-service solutions, M86 said in a statement. Under the merger, which is effective immediately, Finjan will maintain a development center and operations in Netanya, Israel.
U.S.-based Finjan SW will remain an independent company to retain its malware detection intellectual property, according to a statement. M86 was created a year ago with the merger of Marshal and 8e6. In March 2009, the combined company acquired behavioral malware detection company Avinti.
