messaging management, and data loss prevention solutions that allow our customers to secure, provision,
and remotely access their laptops, PCs, mobile devices, and servers.
•Storage and Server Management. Our Storage and Server Management segment focuses on providing
enterprise and large enterprise customers with storage and server management, backup, and data protection
solutions across heterogeneous storage and server platforms.
•Services. Our Services segment provides customers with leading IT risk management services and
solutions to manage security, availability, performance and compliance risks across multi-vendor environ-
ments. Our services include consulting, business critical, education, SaaS and managed security services.
•Other. Our Other segment is comprised of sunset products and products nearing the end of their life cycle.
It also includes general and administrative expenses; amortization of acquired product rights, intangible
assets, and other assets; goodwill impairment charges; charges such as stock-based compensation and
restructuring; and certain indirect costs that are not charged to the other operating segments.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies. There are no intersegment sales. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates performance
primarily based on net revenue. Except for goodwill, as disclosed in Note 6, the majority of our assets are not
discretely identified by segment. The depreciation and amortization of our property, equipment, and leasehold
improvements are allocated based on headcount, unless specifically identified by segment.
