Symantec announced on Monday that it plans to acquire IT management software company Altiris, in a deal valued at approximately AU$830 million.
Almost a year after completing its acquisition of BindView, Symantec has launched the Control Compliance Suite, which is a set of software tools designed to help companies adhere to regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley.
Looking for further expansion, Symantec is considering delving into identity management, encryption and a range of managed services, the security giant's chief said on Monday.

The company is making research a higher priority -- investing more resources in the group and aggressively developing technology in-house.
