According to Crnkovich, interest in on-demand security solutions “continues to gather momentum as more and more organisations are beginning to understand the benefits of on-demand IT.” He said “Alphawest has long been recognised as one of the leaders in the IT services market, with long standing IT security expertise that makes them an ideal partner for Websense.” Crnkovich said that Alphawest’s on-demand security services block unwanted email and web traffic before it even reaches the customer network, while helping to reduce demands on network capacity, maintenance and storage expenses for its on-demand security customers. “These solutions also help enable Alphawest’s customers to reduce the cost and complexity of managing and maintaining in-house email and web security systems as there are no hardware, software, maintenance or upgrade costs. “These security services are hosted on Websense infrastructure which means that leading email and Web protection is provided away from the customer network, without any loss of control for the administrator. In addition, businesses can tap into the combined security expertise of Alphawest and Websense to reduce the need to employ security experts directly.” According to Alphawest CEO, Rob Parcell, in the current economic climate organisations are “looking to services, such as on-demand as a key way to resolve the challenge of managing their networks and security with limited budgets and resources.” |
