Symantec announced Thursday that it would split into two business units. One focuses entirely on security, while the other sticks to information management. The data division will consist of backup and recovery, archiving, eDiscovery, storage management, and information availability product lines. The security division will cover more ground, consisting of SSL, DLP, and MSP offerings, in addition to endpoint protection and management, data encryption, mobile, authentication, and hosted security. The split is expected to complete by December of 2015.”]
