The Powerful Choice for a Secure Internet Presence
The Rise of Internet Security Threats
In 2006, it is estimated that PC viruses and other Internet threats cost worldwide businesses over 67 billion dollars in damages, with a fifth report-ing twenty or more incidents in the past year alone. As most organizations are rapidly becoming aware, Internet security is the most significant aspect to successfully conducting business on the Web today. With corporate network compromises growing at a rapid rate, and server downtime being costly in both lost user productivity and revenue, organizations of all sizes are looking for powerfully secure alternatives to outdated, insecure, and insufficient ap-plications. However, the search for an appropriate network security solution can be difficult. In general, network security systems can be expensive, fail to meet all requirements, be difficult to configure and maintain, and inflexible to an organization’s individual needs.
What is needed is a platform that always has the latest features, grows with the demands of the company, and maintains its level of security at the same time. Guardian Digital effectively achieves that goal with its award-winning portfolio of enterprise and small business network security and productivity solutions and Master Support options.
