DATE: January 19, 2012Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) January 19, 2012Aurora, a leading IT company specializing in state-of-the-art security and compliance solutions for business critical applications, has qualified for the Software Licensing Program (SLP) established by the California Department of General Services.The program, established in 1994, negotiates extensive software discounts with major software publishers, which are then passed on to the State, through the SLP contracts established with authorized participating resellers.

“We are very pleased to have been awarded this contract,” said Aurora CEO Philip de Souza. “With a wider offering, including expert consulting services and software, Aurora can better address our California State clients’ needs and help them stay current with encryption and security best practices.”

Only a select number of California businesses have qualified for SLP authorization, and of those even fewer provide Symantec software products at the volume-discounted rate made possible by the Department of General Services. “Now our clients have an easy and affordable means to purchase the Internet security software they need,” de Souza said.
