Virtual-Q

Virtual-Q, a Houston-based startup, has developed breakthrough technology for enterprise cloudtop computing. The job it does: assessing, monitoring and responding to security threats on your behalf.

Who is it for? Mostly companies without a full security team. Related areas on their profile: Cloud Computing, Security and Virtualization. They are a small team, 11 to 50 people, which usually shapes who they work with. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

Virtual-Q is based in Houston, Texas and founded in 2009. More on virtual-q.com.
