SecureData, St Bernard Software link-up for an African initiative

Johannesburg, 23 Mar 2005

SecureData, a member of the JSE-listed ERP.com Group, today announced that St Bernard Software has appointed the company as its distributor for Sub-Saharan Africa.

"We endeavour to complement our product offerings and services as needs are identified within the local market," commented Dean Brazier, MD of SecureData. "St Bernard Software fills some of these gaps appropriately and we are therefore delighted that we are able to partner with them."

"With SecureData being the continent's leading provider of security solutions and services, it was natural that we sought a relationship with them for our African initiatives," added Peder Mervild of St Bernard Software. "We look forward to an on-going and mutually beneficial partnership."

St Bernard Software offers a range of 'perimeter security' products that protect e-mail systems from abuse and spam and for the monitoring of Internet usage; and various 'system security' products that for example, protect mission-critical data.
