MCI expands its base of Cyberoam users

Johannesburg, 03 Mar 2011

MCI Consultants, a leading provider of software solutions to the financial services and staffing industries, today announced that it had successfully installed its unified threat management solution, Cyberoam, at Hendler & Hart, Radio Data Communications, Muhanga Mines and Rosnovanu and Associates.

“The security landscape is changing rapidly, and for instance, the number of security threats has exploded exponentially and is already over 2 000 threats per hour level. In addition, the threats have become very focused, more complex, often hidden in an innocuous 'delivery' vehicle, and their originators are now motivated from a financial-reward perspective,” commented Gawie van Rensburg, Partner at MCI Consultants. “Furthermore, these threats may come from internal or external sources.”

“As a direct result of this, MCI has deployed Cyberoam, an award winning unified threat management multifunction firewall, to their customer network,” continued Van Rensburg.

“This ICSA-certified Cyberoam firewall provides comprehensive security to all sizes of enterprises, including any remote or branch offices. It offers the most comprehensive enterprise-wide and individual user identity-based reporting with its CR range of appliances, thus eliminating the need to make a separate investment on a reporting solution and its integration.

“The provision, implementation and support of Cyberoam is just another of the many services that are in the portfolio that we offer to our clients,” concluded Van Rensburg.

The ICSA-certified Cyberoam firewall offers the following features:

* Hardware Firewall Appliance
* Virtual Private Network (SSL VPN & IPSec)
* Identity-Based Bandwidth Management
* Multiple Link Load Balancing and Gateway Failover
* Gateway Anti-spam
* Intrusion Prevention
* Content and Application Filtering

Cyberoam is a division of Elitecore Technologies, a company whose major investor is The Carlyle Group, one of the world's top private equity companies.
