Networks Unlimited, a value added distributor (VAD) of IT security and networking solutions, based in South Africa, announced today the signing of a partnership agreement with Websense.
This new partnership brings the world's leading Internet management solution to businesses, providing them with a means to effectively manage employees' use of the net.
"Our partnership with Websense marks a huge step forward in realising our mission to become the leading VAD of IT security solutions in sub-Saharan Africa.
"The Internet is today's ultimate business tool, yet it could easily lead to huge losses of productivity in all companies, large or small. Businesses today need to ensure that the time spent by employees online is used effectively, and to the company's benefit. This is exactly what Websense's solutions allow them to do; it is a very powerful tool for administration and reporting in the hand of managers and human resources departments.
"The result is improved productivity, and better use of network resources, such as bandwidth and storage," commented Scott Martin, National Sales Manager - Networks Unlimited.
The partnership with Websense marks a further addition to Networks Unlimited impressive 'blue chip' partnerships in the area of IT security, including Riverbed, PGP and Ironport products to name a few. As a server-based software solution, Websense allows government organisations, educational institutions and corporate entities that are concerned about their employees' Internet usage to transparently manage and report traffic flowing from the internal networks to the Internet.
Networks Unlimited aims to provide added value for our customers, through the adoption of leading-edge technology and contemporary management practices. Our collaboration with Websense allows us to cater to the ever-increasing sophisticated needs of businesses in the region as they seek to stay ahead of developments taking place in the area of Internet usage and related issues worldwide.
