August supports SecureData bolt-on

The deal marks SecureData's second bolt-on since it was acquired by August Equity in July 2012. The first was the company's purchase of Surrey-based online security business Quadrant Networks in November 2012.

SecureData was attracted to SensePost because of its research labs, where its team of researchers can create bespoke solutions. This operation will be integrated into SecureData Labs.
