Webroothas unveiled the
WebrootE-Mail
Securitysoftware-as-a-service(SaaS) product
for SMEs.
The service follows the takeover of Email Systems by Webroot
last November.
Targeted at SMEs that want easier to manage perimeter security,
Webroot said its new SaaS system delivered better protection, lower
total cost of ownership and better value than perimeter security
appliances or software.
Mike Irwin, COO at Webroot, said, "At enterprise-class levels,
security and security management is difficult and complex and
therefore often unfulfilled. This is especially true at SMEs with
limited security resources.
"SaaS solutions re-define perimeter security by eliminating the
pain and cost of hardware and software management. With better
manageability, better protection and overall better value, our SME
customers can now focus on their mission-critical projects, while
we provide them with enterprise-class security," he said.
Webroot's e-mail security service uses up to five different
anti-virus and two different spam filtering engines to keep up to
date.
The new system can be integrated with Webroot AntiSpyware
Corporate Edition and AntiVirus end-point protection.
