Paul Couturier, Tipping Point's vice president of international operations, is leading the company's expansion of a value-added distributor network across Europe to support security resellers.
"Our next step is to open a sales office in London for the U.K. and Nordic region in May with rapid expansion planned across the wider European market place," Couturier said in a prepared statement.
In its announcement, Tipping Point cited a 2004 infosec breach survey by PricewaterhouseCoopers, which showed that more than two thirds of U.K. companies have suffered a malicious attack in the past year.
