Global IT security vendor Panda Security will be showcasing its recently launched cloud-based security solutions at the ITWeb Security Summit on 11-13 May.
Panda is a sponsor of the three-day annual conference and exhibition, which brings together members of the local and international IT community to share their experiences as well as the latest tools and techniques available for safeguarding information.
“This is a great opportunity to show the future of IT security,” says Jeremy Matthews, head of Panda's sub-Saharan operations. “Panda's cloud-based technologies are fundamentally transforming the way SMEs protect their businesses from Internet threats.”
Panda launched its Cloud Protection security solution for SMEs in November 2009. The product offers fully hosted, incredibly lightweight, managed security that automates all maintenance tasks. This allows SMEs to remain focused on their core business, having peace of mind that their digital assets and information are being protected. Because it is a hosted service, Panda Cloud Protection eliminates the need for investment in any IT infrastructure, while also enabling easy monitoring and maintenance of protection from anywhere, anytime.
Panda Cloud Protection has two components: Panda Cloud Office Protection and Panda Cloud Email Protection.
Panda Cloud Office Protection offers cloud-based anti-malware and firewall protection for workstations, laptops and servers. Easy to use, it is managed from a simple Web console. The product can also be managed through third party Managed Security Service Providers thanks to its service provider console. Panda Cloud Office Protection's many benefits include: minimal resource consumption, flexible and easy installation, minimised maintenance costs and optimum protection.
Panda Cloud Email Protection is a security solution guaranteeing 100% virus-free e-mail. It reduces mail server workloads by deleting spam and malware from inbound and outbound mail. Panda Cloud Email Protection's main advantages include: increased user productivity due to the elimination of malware, complete accessibility to e-mail in the event of mail server failures, automatic set-up, detailed reports of all activity and minimised maintenance costs.
Panda Cloud Protection is based on Panda's Collective Intelligence system, which utilises Panda's millions of users as “malware sensors” that contribute to a vast database of malware - stored “in the cloud”. Collective intelligence is thus able to detect and block new strains from the cloud in almost real-time. This means SMEs are protected from the newest and most dangerous malware.
Visitors to the ITWeb Security Summit will be able to find out more about Panda's revolutionary products. The summit takes place from the 11-13 May 2010 at the Sandton Convention Centre. For more information, visit: http://ww2.itweb.co.za/events/securitysummit/2010/sponsorship.asp.
