The company's roots date back to 1991 and the foundation of March Information Systems Ltd. This company developed the Security Manager product, and both company and product were acquired by Internet Security Systems in 1998, with Security Manager being rebranded as System Scanner. In 2004, the original team that was responsible for both Security Manager and System Scanner founded Assuria Ltd. The company took over the support and further development of that product, now branded Assuria Auditor.[2][3]
The company has been based since its foundation on the Whiteknights campus of the University of Reading, in the English city of Reading. Initially occupying offices in the, now demolished, Reading Enterprise Hub, the company relocated to offices in the Science & Technology Centre in 2007, before moving to the new Enterprise Centre in 2011.[4]
In late 2010, the company received inward investment from BAE Systems' Investment in Innovation fund.[1]
