Leading innovator in enterprise secure content management and worldwide leader in software digital rights management and USB-based authentication solutions, Aladdin Knowledge Systems is entering the South African market together with its local distributor, Johannesburg-based IT security company Camsoft Solutions.
This week Aladdin will launch its eSafe SecureSurfing solution at the Fairlawns Hotel in Johannesburg.
One of a range of security products from Aladdin Knowledge Systems, eSafe is an innovative platform for both corporate customers and Internet service providers, enabling them to offer - for the first time - content security services to their users at the same high-level security previously enjoyed by the largest of organisations.
Until now, the security services offered by service providers and IT departments of organisations were typically limited to anti-virus and anti-spam for e-mail and a desktop security product or URL filtering - mostly as a 'parental control' service with very limited security. But the fact remains that modern attackers do not rely on e-mail for infection. Rather, they exploit zero-day vulnerabilities to infect Web site visitors with spyware, Trojans and rootkits.
Many of the latest attacks originate from phishing e-mail luring unsuspecting users to malicious or spoofed Web sites. This is particularly prevalent where users are making use of Internet banking and for which a security compromise can have serious financial consequences.
"Consumers will demand a safe Internet service, and if an ISP doesn't measure up on security, members will flee to a rival provider. Customers will absolutely demand a clean pipe." Forrester, July 2005.
Whether installed within an ISP infrastructure or at the gateway of an organisation, eSafe SecureSurfing cleans the line from threats before reaching the PC user. Practically, this means that users can finally have a true "clean pipe"- transparently protecting them from Web threats, spyware, Trojans, viruses, worms, phishing and more. All this is done without the user's need to install any software and without impacting Web access speed, surfing experience or performance.
