Duxbury to distribute Clearswift

Johannesburg, 10 Jul 2003

Duxbury Networking has signed a sole distribution agreement with UK-based Clearswift, one of the world`s leading providers of software for managing and securing electronic communications.

Clearswift products, which currently hold a 23% share of the global content filtering market, will be marketed in SA through Duxbury`s existing resellers, dealers and channel infrastructure.

Graham Vorster, chief technology officer at Duxbury Networking, says the Clearswift suite will give companies the ability to protect themselves against e-mail and Web-based security and fraud threats, implement productivity-saving policies and manage intellectual property passing through their networks.

"The company`s expertise lies in establishing and enforcing e-policies," he notes. "Content security threats include the circulation of inappropriate images and text, spam and oversize files, loss and corruption of data, breaches of confidentiality, as well as viruses and malicious code."

Clearswift`s business development manager for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) Richard Kolodynski, says that the SA and southern African market is one of growing significance.

"SA is a key region and we are delighted to be working with Duxbury Networking to target this important emerging market," he says.

Clearswift`s products include Clearswift MIMEsweeper, an offering that assists users to implement email and Web communications e-policies, and Clearswift ENTERPRISEsuite, which delivers the e-policy infrastructure and enforcement technology for complex organisations to deploy comprehensive management and security solutions.
