European Internet Security Solutions Giant Bullguard Selects Commtouch's Solutions to Protect Millions Globally

In the arena of consumer and small-business Internet security solutions BullGuard is a name to reckon with. They provide solutions that protect against the whole gamut of online threats including those such as identity theft and credit card fraud. It keeps hackers, spam mail, viruses and spyware at bay. Now, BullGuard will leverage two Commtouch (News - Alert) solutions with its Internet Security 12 product that is scheduled to be launched later this month.

In a release, Soren Ravn, BullGuard CEO, said, “After testing multiple solutions, we selected Commtouch's Anti-Spam and GlobalView URL filtering to replace commercial technologies we had been using because Commtouch's cloud approach aligns with our rapidly growing user base."

Looking into the ways Commtouch's cloud Internet security solutions has been designed, it is clear to see that the product allows easy integration into most security products sold globally. Because these solutions are linguistically based, they are able to provide an international coverage for both e-mail as well as Web filtering requirements. Because of the small footprint they need and the minimal demand on resources, they can easily be used for smaller work environments of an individual desktop or in smaller appliances. In fact BullGuard has put together a manual on malware and how it attacks devices.

Ofer Tal, vice president of International Sales and Business Development at Commtouch, said, “We are pleased to support BullGuard's large, global customer base with Internet security solutions that protect against the sophisticated Internet threats of today and tomorrow. BullGuard's scrupulous approach to the quality of its solutions is a good fit for Commtouch, as is the company's emphasis on efficiency in utilizing multiple services from a single vendor, which enables a single point of contact for email security and Web security."
