The cloud-based Secure Web Gateway as a Service market
represents an opportunity to serve businesses currently exposed to
potentially crippling Internet security risks. Delivering the low
cost and high utility of cloud-based applications, CYREN
WebSecurity is ideally suited to address explosive growth in the
Security as a Service (SecSaaS) markets that are fueled by BYOD
trends, an increasingly mobile workforce, and the management and
accessibility of information assets beyond the boundaries of
traditionally secured network perimeters.
CYREN WebSecurity is built for this new way of working, enabling
CYREN partners to quickly capture the fast-growing market
opportunity by offering a total solution for roaming users,
smartphones and tablets, including BYOD. It leverages the company's
GlobalView™ Cloud infrastructure, its patented Recurrent Pattern
Detection™ technology, and the most robust transaction base in the
industry to deliver a unique cloud-based Secure Web Gateway
service. Easy to set up and manage, it provides an intuitive
customer experience that delivers on the SaaS promise of doing more
for less.
"We are excited to see the emergence of state-of-the-art cloud
based protection for mobile and roaming users," said Tom O'Brien, CEO of MXSweep, a leading European
provider of cloud-based security services and CYREN design partner.
"CYREN WebSecurity will help MXSweep deliver the easy to consume
and best of breed cloud based security that our customers
expect."
"Arming partners with the ability to rapidly deploy new security
services throughout any ecosystem, CYREN WebSecurity opens up
significant new revenue streams," said Brett Wilson, vice president of products at
CYREN. "CYREN WebSecurity provides our partners with the speed,
accuracy and real-time insight that their end customers demand
without the unnecessary burdens of additional capital expense and
expert human resources. We see CYREN's robust cloud infrastructure
as a true catalyst for growth – and today's launch of CYREN Web
Security is the latest step in harnessing its full
capabilities."
