Cloudmark and Panda Security Team Up Against Internet Menaces
Posted on: Wednesday, 14 November 2007, 18:00 CST
Cloudmark, Inc., the global leader in carrier-grade messaging security, and Panda Security, a leading provider of integrated security solutions, today announced a partnership to integrate Cloudmark's best-of-breed message filtering technology into Panda Security's GateDefender network security appliances. Adaptable to the needs of large enterprises or SMBs, Panda GateDefender appliances are perimeter security devices that block Internet-based threats before they enter the company's networks.
Cloudmark message filtering technology will be integrated into both the Performa and Integra series of Panda Security's GateDefender perimeter security appliances. Panda GateDefender Performa protects companies from Internet-based threats, such as viruses, malware, inappropriate content and message-borne threats. Panda's Integra appliances add firewall and VPN to the features of the Performa, providing a comprehensive unified threat management (UTM) solution.
Cloudmark offers the industry's most accurate and highest-performing protection against spam, phishing and viruses. Cloudmark's technology is based on a unique combination of Advanced Message Fingerprinting(TM) algorithms and real-time data on emerging threats from the Cloudmark Global Threat Network, consisting of trusted reporters in 163 countries. Cloudmark consistently detects more than 98 percent of inbound and outbound messaging attacks with near-zero false positives. In addition to this level of accuracy, Cloudmark's unmatched message throughput significantly lowers CPU resource/server requirements.
"GateDefender with Cloudmark technology offers companies of all sizes highly scalable and comprehensive gateway-level protection against messaging threats," commented Jose Antonio Lopez, director of corporate solutions at Panda Security. "We selected Cloudmark as our technology partner because of their high accuracy in detecting all forms of messaging abuse, along with extremely low false positives. Cloudmark's carrier-grade performance was also a key consideration."
"Unsolicited emails create problems for enterprises, either as a security threat, consuming network bandwidth and storage or by reducing productivity," commented Neil Cook, head of technology services, EMEA at Cloudmark. "Cloudmark perfectly complements the GateDefender appliances by combining high filtering accuracy with the high carrier-grade performance required for an edge security solution."
