Rebranding Overview/FAQs
Saalex Information Technology (SaalexIT), a division of Saalex Corporation, is undertaking a rebranding that better reflects the services we provide. As of August 1, 2020, we are changing the SaalexIT name to Valeo Networks to establish a more distinct and recognizable national brand.
The Valeo Networks brand and processes will be adopted across Saalex’s IT division. It will reflect a nationwide team to better support our customers, and will be able to provide expanded services, resources, and national capabilities.
The brand change, inclusive of a new website, is part of an initiative to differentiate Saalex Corp.’s IT division from the Federal division, Saalex Solutions, which focuses on our federal customer base. The redesigned website features a clean look and intuitive navigation, along with a host of information and resources.
Our vision for the IT division is to continue to grow into a nationally recognized brand with regional expansions that can meet the changing information technology needs of organizations across the United States. We want to become known for providing cutting edge technology integrations, unmatched technology expertise, and exceptional customer service to our clients.
“The rebranding of the IT division marks an exciting strategy shift towards becoming a national Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP). Our new branding reflects our increased commitment to our customers and our continuous pursuit to grow our services and expertise.” —Travis Mack, President and CEO of Saalex Corp.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Why did SaalexIT change its name?
To establish a more distinct and recognizable national brand, SaalexIT has decided to adopt the name and branding of the recent acquisition, Valeo Networks. The word “valeo” in Latin means to have strength, have power, and be effective. With full-service, nationwide MSSP and IT solutions, the Valeo Networks name and branding will better reflect the robust, efficient services that are offered. The name change will also signify differentiation from Saalex Corp.’s Federal division, Saalex Solutions.
-
Has SaalexIT been acquired?
No, SaalexIT remains a division under the parent company, Saalex Corp., which acquired the Scottsdale, Arizona-based company Valeo Networks in April 2020. SaalexIT will only be changing its name and branding to Valeo Networks.

Did this change affect the corporate structure?
No, Saalex Corp. remains the parent company of two operating divisions, each of which serve a distinct customer base.
Saalex Solutions, the Federal services division, provides core competencies in the areas of test range operations and management, engineering and logistics services, data analytics, cybersecurity, and IT services. Saalex Solutions provides services for the Department of Defense, Navy, NASA, and other government entities.
