Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP)

Evaluation Based on Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute

ATLANTA, April 20 /PRNewswire/ -- SecureWorks(R), one of the market's leading
Security as a Service providers, today announced it has been positioned by
Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders quadrant of the Magic Quadrant for MSSPs, North
America. The Gartner Magic Quadrant is a graphical portrayal of vendor
performance in a market segment, including categories for leaders,
challengers, visionaries and niche players. Criteria by which the vendors are
measured include a company's completeness of vision and ability to execute.

According to Gartner, "Each of the service providers in the Leaders quadrant
has significant 'mind share' among enterprises looking to buy a MSS (Managed
Security Service) as a discrete offering, and they generally receive positive
reports on service and performance from Gartner clients. Managed Security
Service Providers in the Leaders quadrant are typically appropriate options
for enterprises requiring frequent interaction with the MSSP for analyst
expertise and advice, portal-based correlation and workflow support and
flexible reporting options."

"We are excited about our positioning in the Leaders quadrant and we will
continue to work hard to provide our clients with outstanding security,
coupled with the highest level of client service," said Mike Cote, chairman
and CEO of SecureWorks. "As the threat continues to accelerate, there is no
better time to offer innovative and high quality security to our clients."
