New Name Better Reflects National Scope of Service Offerings

Camarillo, CA, Rockledge, FL and Phoenix, AZ (August 3, 2020) – Saalex Information Technology (SaalexIT), a division of Saalex Corporation, today announced it is changing its name to Valeo Networks, which it acquired in April 2020.

The rebranding to Valeo Networks establishes a more distinct and recognizable national brand in the Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) space. It reflects a nationwide team to better support its customers, and provide expanded services, resources, and national capabilities.

When SaalexIT acquired Valeo Networks, it substantially increased its depth and breadth of resources, services, and support. The adoption of the company’s name leverages Valeo Networks’ national reputation and customer base.

“The rebranding of the IT division marks an exciting strategy shift towards becoming a national Managed Security Service Provider,” said Travis Mack, President and CEO of Saalex Corp. “Our new branding reflects our increased commitment to our customers and our continuous pursuit to grow our services and expertise.”

The brand change also includes the launch of a new website, offering a clean look and intuitive navigation, along with a host of information and resources.

The new name is also part of an initiative to distinguish the division from Saalex Solutions, the federal services division of Saalex Corp., which focuses on our federal customer base. Valeo Networks remains a division under the parent company, Saalex Corp.

Valeo Networks is now in the top 10% of revenue-generating MSSPs nationwide, providing solutions in the areas of cybersecurity, compliance, cloud, network infrastructure, and managed IT services. It serves State, County, Municipal (SCM) markets, along with commercial/small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) and non-profit organizations.
