With iPrism, St. Bernard's Web-filtering appliance, SMBs can efficiently
and effectively secure Internet access, meet regulatory compliance
requirements and enforce policy with a low Total Cost of Ownership. As a
dedicated appliance, iPrism requires no additional hardware or software and
is easy to install, configure and administer. Its proprietary, kernel-level
filtering protects against threats in HTTP, IM and P2P traffic, such as
spyware, malware and phishing, with unmatched speed and accuracy.
Additionally, all URL database updates are automatically sent to the
appliance, eliminating the amount of time a smaller IT staff has to spend
maintaining it.
LivePrism is a hosted security solution specifically developed to address
an SMB's needs. It offers email, Web and Instant Message-filtering services
that stop viruses, malware, spam and unwanted file transfers at the network
perimeter. It also provides message archiving and monitoring for regulatory
compliance and management, as well as office solutions such as email
hosting and shared calendars for collaboration. All of LivePrism's features
are provisioned by-the-slice, giving SMBs the flexibility to select the
services they require at one of the most affordable price points in the
industry.
"Security products have continued to evolve rapidly in the past few years,
and advanced technologies are now making it possible to take a proactive
approach to most scenarios," said Rake Narang, managing editor of Info
Security Products Guide.
"End-users of these products have to deal with zero-day threats which
differ vastly from lab-simulated environments. They build a strong
'Customer Trust' for products that best meet their requirements and
therefore also play a key role in the security
evolution cycle."
"Info Security Products Guide's recognition of iPrism and LivePrism further
validates St. Bernard's ability to provide solutions with the best
