Johannesburg-based i- has been appointed as the exclusive southern African distributor for Tumbleweed Communications, a US software and communications applications provider.

The two companies have been working together for just over a year.

i-Security will distribute Tumbleweed`s full line of secure Internet communications applications to governments and enterprises and will provide technical support to its customers, it said.

"Tumbleweed previously concentrated on America and Europe as it hadn`t identified an appropriate partner in SA," says i-Security CEO Jeremy Miller.

Organisations face an ever-increasing number and diversity of security threats via the Internet, Miller says, and Tumbleweed plays a vital role in providing organisations with solutions for e-mail hygiene, secure e-mail, secure file transfer and identity validation.
