BLOXX Delivers Free Anti-Spyware and Web Virus Protection
BLOXX®, the leading provider of enterprise-class web filtering appliance solutions, announced today the immediate availability of an upgrade for its entire BLOXX® web filtering product line.
The BLOXX® Family is an integrated hardware and software product line that provides businesses with an enterprise-class web, spyware & virus protection that is easy to use and affordable. BLOXX® is delivering automatic firmware updates to all existing customers within existing maintenance arrangements. V3.1.1 enhances security and performance as well as provides additional web filtering features.
“We recognise that spyware & virus techniques are constantly evolving and we are committed to making sure our product line is continuously up-to-date on the latest defence methods” said Eamonn Doyle, MD of BLOXX®. With this new release, we are able to seamlessly integrate anti-Spyware & virus blocking techniques into our appliances without disrupting our customers Internet service.
These changes are in addition to recently made available enhancements to its proprietary BLOXX® web scanning system, which makes it possible for all BLOXX® appliances to actually block inappropriate web sites reaching user desktops – even though the site has never actually been previously identified. This improvement was deployed automatically to current BLOXX® customers at no additional charge and presents “the single greatest advancement in web filtering” according to Doyle. “For the first time we can protect users – but especially kids at school for example – from the deluge of new and re-named offensive sites that are launched every week. The reliance of a web address database used by most of our competitors is out of date, ineffective, over rated and over priced” Doyle said.
