HP FURTHERS ADAPTIVE ENTERPRISE WITH TruLogica ACQUISITION

HP has purchased TruLogica in a move to further extend its Adaptive Enterprise program. The plan is for HP to use TruLogica's identity management technology to improve user management in a wide variety of business-related applications. The terms of the deal, which is not technically closed, have not been disclosed.

The acquisition is not uncommon for HP, who has acquired several smaller companies within the last few months. HP's major competitors, Sun Microsystems and EMC, also have purchased their fair shares of companies recently.

The purchase of TruLogica adds further proof that HP is not the fully evolved being it appeared to be a couple of years ago. The company has acquired a plethora of technologies since then.

The TruLogica purchase should help customers with a number of tasks. HP highlighted TruLogica's ability to automate password resets and synchronization, its Java support and strong registration, approval and security tools.
