Patrick,

Congratulations to you and your entire team on being named the top provider in InfoWorld’s inaugural application whitelisting product review, just edging out second place finisher, CoreTrace. Roger Grimes did an excellent job of assessing each of the solutions. While we honestly believe that our BOUNCER solution is the better product (as you would expect), we wanted to congratulate you on your win this round.

We are very excited that the application whitelisting market is coming of age, and that all of the benefits are becoming well known and documented. Reviews like this one, combined with increasing customer adoption and Microsoft’s big push of AppLocker, are all clear evidence of this sea change.

Roger’s review reflects what we both know and are experiencing in competitive deals everyday: it is quickly becoming a two horse race between our two companies. This review is further evidence that any company considering Bit9 should look at CoreTrace, and vice versa.

We are looking forward to jointly growing the application whitelisting market with Bit9, and to competing aggressively with you going forward.

Congratulations again and good luck in the future,

Toney
