Extreme Networks Inc (NASDAQ:EXTR)

EXTR's data centers are spread across 5 different continents and located in 13 different countries. And as a relatively small $1.25 billion growth company, EXTR is hard at work putting new data centers together in key locations around the world.

At the same time EXTR is expanding its logistical and geographic footprint, the company has also been working hard to secure its data so it can offer customers the safest experience possible for their cloud computing needs.

In fact, EXTR's network security is so strong that the company is the only cloud platform certified under the ISO 27017, ISO 27701 and ISO 27001 designations. Those security designations may not mean all that much to you and I, but they're a big deal for companies who handle sensitive customer data.

It's also helpful that EXTR offers its security solutions directly through Amazon Web Services, Google's Cloud Platform and Microsoft's Azure. So by working with some of the most well-known cloud services, EXTR is able to continue to grow its customer base and offer its security solutions on some of the most widely accepted platforms in business.

So as a standalone growth company, EXTR is doing a great job of serving its customers and growing its global reach.

EXTR just got beat up due to lowering guidance. I believe the punishment was too severe and that the long term growth potential makes this a buying opportunity.
