PineApp Corporation Signs Agreement With Tallard Technologies to Distribute Email Security Product Line Throughout Latin America

Posted on: Wednesday, 18 July 2007, 09:18 CDT

PineApp™ Corporation, a global provider of appliance-based solutions for email security, today announced it has signed a distribution agreement for its flagship line of email security products with Miami-based Tallard Technologies, Inc., the largest value-added distributor for Latin America.

"After analyzing and comparing various solutions, we determined that PineApp's Mail-SeCure™ delivers the industry's best cost-to-benefit value," explained Sergio Farache, vice president and chief operating officer of Tallard Technologies. "It offers the best return on investment (ROI), total cost of ownership (TCO) and technical features while providing excellent protection against viruses and spam, especially the new wave of image-embedded spam. And, we can seamlessly bundle the software with the IBM-based appliances we already stock to deliver a great solution for the market."

"Signing a distribution agreement with Tallard is a giant step forward in our global distribution plan," said Jacob Fox, PineApp Corp. president and chief executive officer. "As part of our commitment to appliance-based solutions, we are able to market Mail-SeCure software to selected large distributors and OEMs for use in their own appliances. We're now in a position to offer Latin American companies what we consider to be the most advanced email protection solution available."

PineApp Mail-SeCure is an easy-to-use, easy-to-administer solution for protecting organizations from targeted and non-targeted email and network threats. It provides a buffer between the Internet and the organization's email systems by using a full pack of perimeter security layers. A five-layer anti-virus system protects against viruses, Trojan horses and worms; its Zero-Hour protection detects and blocks new-age viruses in minutes--not hours or days. An 11-layer multi-technology system blocks at least 98 percent of all spam and phishing. Its proven technology fights emerging image-based spam (Spam 2.0) and a unique mechanism detects and blocks backscatter (non-legitimate bounce-back messages).
