LEADING ANALYST FIRM POSITIONS CYBEROAM UTM AS A "VISIONARY" IN MAGIC QUADRANT FOR SMB MULTIFUNCTION FIREWALLS |
| |
| (
Woburn, MA, USA – 4 August, 2009 ) |
| |
| Cyberoam,
a leading vendor of Identity-based Unified Threat Management (UTM)
solutions, was positioned as a ‘Visionary’ by Gartner in its July 2009
Magic Quadrant for SMB Multifunction Firewalls*. The Magic Quadrant
evaluated twelve vendors based on their ability to execute and
completeness of vision. |
| |
| The
worldwide SMB multifunction firewall market is forecasted by Gartner to
grow at CAGR of 20% to 25% through 2012. In this highly competitive
market, according to Gartner Analysts, Adam Hils and Greg Young,
"Differentiation comes in the form of integration among security
features, licensing flexibility, management console/reporting, and
pricing." |
| |
| “In
my opinion, being positioned as a Visionary by Gartner is recognition
of our unique identity-based security,” says Hemal Patel, CEO -
Elitecore Technologies, the vendor of Cyberoam. “It comes at a time
when awareness of insider threats and their subsequent loss to
organizations has reached crucial momentum. Cyberoam continues to be
the first to address customer’s critical pain points and is committed
to offer advanced and high performance security,” he adds. |
| |
| Cyberoam’s
Identity-based network access and control gives visibility into ‘Who is
Doing What?’ in the network and controls the individual user activity.
Further, its multi-core technology offers high performance and
scalability for rapidly growing SMBs. It also offers ease in deployment
and operation, meeting the requirements of SMBs who lack dedicated IT
resources to manage security. |
| |
| “Cyberoam
has expanded its presence both in terms of product segment and
geography. While its expansion into the US and European markets has
strengthened its global presence, introduction of the easy-to-manage
and cost-effective CR15i solution has enabled it to grow in the SOHO
segment,” says Hemal Patel. |
| |
| ICSA-certified
Cyberoam is the first Active-Active High Availability certified
firewall too. With CheckMark and VPNC certifications under its belt,
Cyberoam has its presence in over 55 countries and is the recipient of
5 star rating from SC Magazine continuously for its award-winning range
of Identity-based UTM appliances. |
