Doctor Web, Ltd. has announced a technical and commercial partnership with Mumbaibased Indian software company - Office Efficiencies (INDIA) Pvt. Ltd - OEIPL.
ICAP based anti-virus software can be optionally installed on an independentcomputer system (anti-virus Server) on the network while network-basedenterprise-wide services are delivered from another computer system or clusters.This architecture is very easy to maintain, because the security administrators haveto install and update Anti-virus software on only one computer system in the entirenetwork.
Very few enterprise-class Internet Security Software have the capability of reliablyconnecting to ICAP based network-services, because it requires the applications tobe very fast. Manish Kochar, the CEO of OEIPL revealed, "SafeSquid's multi-threadedarchitecture makes it arguably the fastest content filtering software. SafeSquid hasbeen specially designed to handle very high traffic, and is therefore commonly usedon clusters. The capability of universally connecting to ICAP based network-serviceshas therefore been a legacy feature in SafeSquid."
Dr.Web is one of the market-leading enterprise-class brands. With Dr.Web thecustomers can extend their services, enhance their value, and create significantrecurring revenue opportunities. The end result is increased security, policycompliance and significant ongoing cost savings. You can now use ICAP protected withthe award-winning Dr.Web anti-virus technology, irrespective of the size and natureof your business.
OEIPL is world known for its Content Filtering Internet Proxy - SafeSquid. "We builtthe ICAP capability into the first proto-type of SafeSquid three years ago, the restof the world should very soon catch up!", said Manish Kochar. "But the problem's,very few anti-virus software companies offer ICAP-based virus defense, even today.And that too, only as a part of their most high-value products, thus making it avery expensive technology. Dr Web, the global leader in virus defense technologies,is a technology pioneer, and offers excellent ICAP-based anti-virus softwaresolutions. We tested the overall performance of using SafeSquid with Dr. Web'sICAP-based anti-virus and are quite sure that the users are going to love it!"
Boris Sharov, CEO of Doctor Web, Ltd., was hopeful, that this should increase thegeneral public awareness about the technology and its advantages, compared to legacysoftware. "With increasing number of networks opting for ICAP-based anti-virus itshould encourage other developers of key enterprise applications to provide ICAPconnectivity", said Mr Sharov, "Imagine networks - that have just an ICAP-basedanti-virus server that serves entire clusters of Internet Servers like Proxy Servers& e-mail servers. It would reduce the TCO for network security, so drastically! Wehave waited for years, to see robust and powerful solutions like SafeSquid that canreally use such cutting-edge technologies".
"Security, load bearing capacity, speed and reliability have always been SafeSquid'skey USPs. SafeSquid has a wide range of filters, prevents abuse of Internetresources that can waste bandwidth resources or productivity losses. SafeSquid istherefore popularly used to distribute Internet access across large enterprises inadherence to Corporate Internet Access Policies. SafeSquid supports the use of avariety of anti-virus technologies, to virus-scan the content before it reaches theusers desktops. Using ICAP-based software or services makes it extremely efficient.But unfortunately very few of our customers could afford the technology. All that'snow set to change!", added Sudipta Ghosh, OEIPL's International Sales Manager.
"OEIPL had recently released a new Edition of SafeSquid, SafeSquid CompositeEdition", said Sachin Purohit, OEIPL's Chief Business Manager for SafeSquid, "whichis free of charge for small networks that have less than 20 users. This had madeSafeSquid an almost natural choice and caused a lot of excitement amongst even smallnetworks and businesses. We have hundreds of people downloading the software everymonth from our web-site. This edition also supports the ICAP virus scanningtechnologies. Now, Dr. Web has added music to the party by offering it's latesttechnology at reduced prices for SafeSquid users. We will now offer Dr. Web'sproducts from our web-site, and also provide the necessary technical assistance tosmoothly implement and use it."
