Cyberoam has signed a strategic distribution agreement with GateWorx of Egypt to distribute its unique Identity-based Unified Threat Management (UTM) Appliances. Gateworx is a leading distributor of information and network security products and services in the region. This new partnership strengthens Cyberoam’s Middle East and African distribution network and enables GateWorx to distribute Cyberoam security appliances for complete Internet security to enterprises of all sizes.

Cyberoam security appliances offer comprehensive threat protection against all Internet threats including spyware, phishing, pharming, viruses, worms, Trojans and more with a complete set of security features that include an Identity-based Firewall, VPN, Anti-virus, Anti-spam, Content Filtering, intrusion prevention system, Bandwidth Management and Multiple Link Management on a single platform.

“Given the increasing volume and range of Internet threats, enterprises in the region recognize that they require more than just a Firewall and Anti-virus for enterprise security,” says Mohamed Haroon, General Manager, GateWorx. “Secondly, enterprises need instant visibility into user activity. The addition of Cyberoam to our product portfolio helps us meet these enterprise security requirements for the complete security feature portfolio as well as for implementing identity-based security policies that move with the user anywhere in the network.”

Cyberoam’s core product strength is its ability to bind security to user identity which eliminates the need for complex IP-pooling for policy creation, implementation and reporting. This reduces time lag that attackers exploit for security breaches. Also, this delivers complete security in dynamic IP environments like DHCP and Wi-Fi where the user cannot be identified through IP addresses.

“GateWorx’s extensive reseller network in Egypt and its strong focus on offering complete solutions rather than only product sales will help us in gaining a stronger foothold in the network security market,” says Harish Chib, VP-Marketing, Cyberoam who heads EMEA. “With this partnership we target around 1 Million USD revenue from the region’s security market.”

Cyberoam currently has an expanding base of resellers in the region, including players like Latitude Systems, VisionTech and ME Info Systems.
