Cyberoam extends benefits of UTM offering with Key security functionality |
| Offers Customers the Industry’s First Identity-Based Integrated Internet Security Solution, Coupled with Real-Time Protection to Combat Emerging Email Threats |
| |
| ( Newburyport, MA, March 20, 2007 ) |
| |
| Cyberoam, a division of Elitecore Technologies and the leading innovator of identity-based unified threat management (UTM) solutions, today announces notable feature enhancements to its UTM solution including HTTP proxy detection, Point-to-Point-Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) VPN support, and new spam-Defense technology that extend the functionality of the Company’s UTM offering and deliver time and cost savings to meet the unified threat management needs of corporate enterprises, government organizations and educational institutions. |
| |
| Delivering the complete range of security features such as identity-based firewall, VPN, gateway antivirus, gateway anti-spam, intrusion prevention system, and content filtering, in addition to bandwidth management and multiple link management over a single platform, Cyberoam UTM appliances are providing integrated Internet security to over 1,000 enterprises globally. With these latest enhancements, customers will garner additional ROI benefits on their technology investment while shoring up their security infrastructure and improving their ability to respond to Internet threats. |
| |
“Cyberoam is proud to be raising the bar for the UTM market,” said Abhilash Sonwane, VP of Product Management, Cyberoam. “Cyberoam’s unique user identity-based approach offers customers an unprecedented degree of control, flexibility and ease of management, and with the addition of these latest features, we are delivering on our commitment to make a unified solution highly effective in today’s complex network environments.” |
| |
| New feature enhancements include: |
| |
 |
HTTP Proxy Detection - Helps detect and block HTTP proxy traffic, offering effective protection by handling security issues that emerge when users try to bypass access protection through anonymous proxies, thereby hiding the Web sites they visit. This is particularly needed in educational institutions struggling to control student access to questionable Web sites. |
| |
|
|
PPTP VPN Support - Creates cost-effective PPTP tunnel with other clients allowing users to create sub-networks inside the corporate network, which eliminates the need for an additional client as Windows has a built-in client. |
| |
|
|
PPPoE Client Functionality - Enables connectivity to the Internet over a DSL connection using the PPP over Ethernet protocol. Significant for global enterprises, particularly in the Middle-East and India, PPPoE Client Functionality supports ISPs who use PPP for customers' dial-up access to the Internet. |
| |
| In addition, through the Company’s strategic partnership with Commtouch, a global developer and provider of proprietary anti-spam, Zero-Hour virus protection and IP Reputation solutions, this latest release integrates Commtouch’s RPD based spam-Defense technology, offering a robust anti-spam solution that provides real-time protection to combat emerging e-mail attacks including identification of new multi-language, multi-format spam and phishing outbreaks based on their characteristic mass distribution patterns. |
| |
| With image spam accounting for almost 35% of the total spam mail being circulated in the world and 70% of bandwidth taken by spam on a global level, Cyberoam provides the most advanced, real-time spam detection for instant protection of users from new outbreaks far ahead of signatures or software updates. |
