According to a press release, ZyXEL selected Commtouch’s
email security suite and GlobalView URL Filtering solutions to provide
customers with secure email and browsing. The email security solution blocks
unwanted email such as spam, malware and phishing, and reduces the quantity of
messages.
GlobalView URL Filtering protects users from browsing
malicious Web sites that otherwise could infect visitors with malware in the
form of drive-by downloads or steal users’ private credentials.
ZyXEL engineers measured increased threat detection rates
and improved real-time response to new threats as a result of the
implementation of Commtouch’s solutions. The high performance of Commtouch’s
services, strict user data privacy protection and the alignment of corporate
business goals of both companies were also key factors in ZyXEL selecting
Commtouch.
“The selection of our security suite by another
major global networking powerhouse demonstrates Commtouch’s leadership in
providing threat protection technology to vendors serious about providing the
best possible protection for their users,” said Ofer Tal, vice president
of international sales and business development at Commtouch.
The company claims that ZyXEL’s adoption of a single
provider for multiple security services has provided tighter integration and
cross-enhanced protection between the different security services it offers,
while enhancing resource management and improving the performance of its
security devices.
