PRESS RELEASES WhiteHat Security Announces Name Change to NTT Application Security NTT Application Security | July 01, 2021 New name, refreshed branding signals company’s next chapter following 2019 acquisition SAN JOSE, Calif. – July 1, 2021 – WhiteHat Security, a world leader in application security, announced today it has formally changed its name to NTT Application Security. The new name will not affect any change in ownership of the organization and provides a closer identity with the parent company of which it remains a wholly-owned, independent subsidiary. NTT Application Security will continue to be powered by WhiteHat’s award-winning cloud-based application security platform. The name change is the next step in progression following the acquisition of WhiteHat Security by NTT Security Corporation in July 2019. The move reinforces the two security-focused companies’ intention to communicate a unified strategy for serving its global customers, partners and prospects with the most innovative cybersecurity solutions in the market. “While our name has changed, our mission has not; we are still laser-focused on solving the fundamental problem of the cyber threat landscape—finding and remediating vulnerabilities in web applications,” said Craig Hinkley, chief executive officer at NTT Application Security. “This is an exciting time for the company, and we look forward to continuing to serve our impressive roster of world-class clients that have trusted WhiteHat to secure their businesses for nearly 20 years.” Alongside the name change, NTT Application Security will play a critical role in NTT’s integrated platform strategy and continue to bolster the organization’s enterprise application security capabilities. “Over the course of nearly two decades, WhiteHat Security has earned its reputation as an industry pioneer and a trusted advisor for Fortune 500 clients who are at the forefront of today’s digital revolution,” said Kazu Yozawa, chief executive officer at NTT Security. “Now, as NTT Application Security, the company is better positioned to leverage NTT’s global brand recognition to help accelerate its mission of driving the future of application security.” NTT Application Security will debut its new brand to industry professionals, prospects and media at Black Hat USA 2021, scheduled to take place in Las Vegas Aug. 4-5.
