SecureSynergy, a
leader in Information Assurance services in
India and Aladdin Knowledge Systems Ltd, a
leader in Software DRM, strong authentication
and content security solutions have tied up to
offer ‘Secure Surfing’ and ‘Secure Mailing’
services to the enterprise and SME sector across
India. The offering will give customers a
centralized, value-added security service that
inspects and filters Web traffic as well as
Email traffic before it reaches the organization
or the web surfer..
According to Ajit
Pathak, Country Manager, Sales Operation,
SecureSynergy, clients would be spared the
expense of investing in hardware, personnel,
management and maintenance in house to secure
their messaging and Internet access environments
from threats such as spam mails, spy-ware and
phishing attacks.
Enterprise
customers would benefit from reduced bandwidth
and device management costs, improved security
and higher employee productivity.
Explaining the value
proposition for SMEs, Shailendra Sahasrabudhe,
Country Manager, Aladdin Knowledge Systems said
that SMEs often lack skills and money to choose
and manage the right equipment that aren’t
exactly cheap. They are also unable to get and
retain trained manpower to manage and maintain
this equipment. “With Secure Surfing and Secure
Mailing offering, subscribers can start the
service in a day's time and avail maximum
benefits with high levels of security, without
facing any challenges,” he claimed. Pathak added
that all that the customer needs to do is point
his Internet or messaging proxy servers to
Secure Synergy’s Network Operations Centre
(NOC).
Secure Synergy
brings to the alliance its competency in managed
security services while Aladdin brings its eSafe
technology platform. SecureSynergy will be
offering two services - Assure and Stream -
built around Aladdin’s platform through an
annual fee based subscription model. The
services will be sold through Secure Synergy
Partners registered under its Reach Partner
Program.
