"Since using ScanSafe to manage our Web security, we haven't had a single attack from malware code or Web security threat to our IT network. We get full protection from malware and unwanted content with zero latency. It's very reassuring to know that our network is being monitored 24/7 by a dedicated team of security specialists, allowing us to focus our IT resources on other projects."

Lee Bingham, IT Manager

"We are particularly impressed with ScanSafe's technical support team. We tested the team's technical knowledge of its own product and also its general knowledge regarding the mechanical aspects of firewall configuration. The team's technical expertise is excellent and we rely heavily on this."

Steve Marsden, Supplier Manager

"Prior to working with ScanSafe we relied on a single vendor for anti-virus and we had to hope that we received security updates on new virus threats before they had time to hit us. ScanSafe Web Filtering also gives us the opportunity to enforce stricter guidelines if we find that recreational use is being abused or is at such a high level that it is affecting bandwidth and hitting the performance of our Web-based business applications."

Rick Sweeney, Infrastructure Manager

"ScanSafe's technology has so far proved to be 100 percent effective at blocking all known and emerging Web threats. It provides features that enable us to retain control over our own policies while removing the hassle and expense of maintaining an in-house system"

Paul Rogers, Business Risk Manager

"In the first six months of using the ScanSafe service, we've noted a dramatic reduction in the number of malware threats reported and have made significant financial and productivity savings."

Lauraine Turner, IT Director

"Because ScanSafe sits outside the network it doesnt' guzzle bandwidth like internal appliances and it can be centrally managed from here in London". Any viruses and threats are stopped before they even enter our network, minimizing risk and disruption to user sessions. This has enabled us to provide our employees with a greater quality of service than before, without forcing us to have IT support on each site."

Sejal Shah, ICT Strategist

"Virus writers have switched from attack by mail to attack from the web, which means that any employee surfing the web could unwittingly bring a virus into the enterprise and seriously compromise corporate security. With ScanSafe we don't need to worry about constantly updating and reconfiguring our Antivirus system - it's all managed for us."

Chris Mitchell, IT Director

"ScanSafe was selected to provide a further layer of security for us. We adopt a policy that it is better to prevent email, Web page borne viruses and spam from entering our systems at all rather than letting them in and then dealing with them through our existing internal security systems."

David Jones, Head of IT

"Our IT systems are critical to the everyday running of what is an extremely busy organization. Using our online booking system, we manage around 400 conferences per year and when guests are staying, they expect uninhibited Internet access as part of the service. In line with this we wanted a solution that would not only guard against web-borne threats, but also allow our members free rein on where they surf. ScanSafe came on-board and within two days we had a solution that is simple to manage and maintain."

Tansy Cork, IT Manager

"ScanSafe's service has been flexible and really easy to manage. It has been blocking access to the appropriate sites as well as some nasty spyware and viruses - nothing has got through. Neither our employees nor our IT team have had any complaints."

Chris Murchison, Operations Engineer

"We view Web-based communication as a valid and relevant business application. Any ingress to our corporate network from viruses or any other kind of malware is taken extremely seriously."

Walter Wilson, Group Network and Security Manager

ROI Case Study - "The Bottom Line - By deploying ScanSafe, Paul Davril improved its worker productivity, freed up telecommunications bandwidth, and improved information sharing practices".

Nucleus Research, May 2006

"It was very quick and easy to implement. It was doing the blocking we needed, and it had flexibility in terms of what we could block."

Bill Newman, Technical Services Manager

"The week after we turned ScanSafe on, it blocked four viruses, two of them pretty nasty. Even with strong firewalls and current antivirus signature files, without heuristic scanning you are vulnerable. Having external filtering as a layer of defense lets me sleep better at night."

Geoff Lawson, Director of IT

"ScanSafe enables us to provide our employees with a greater quality of service than before, without forcing us to have IT support on each site."

IT Director

"We had already protected against the threat from SMTP. ScanSafe gave us protection from HTTP and FTP threats. A managed service is simple - switch on and immediately redirect; that's it. There is no software or appliances to keep updated, and there is no negative effect on performance. The threats are eliminated before they hit the network. A big, big advantage is the absolutely transparent cost across our sites."

Edmund Comber, IT Director

"With normal desktop anti-virus software, we had a number of machines that got infected with Spyware and adware, the types of things where it changed the default home page and you couldn't reset it. Now, basically, we get delivered a clean Internet feed, so none of that stuff gets through. We don't have that overhead anymore."

Simon Hicks, IT Director

"The ScanSafe managed service meets all of our requirements by ensuring that harmful threats from the Web never make it past the Internet-level and onto our network. We have not been forced to purchase additional in-house software and the nature of the managed service means that I am free to concentrate on core IT issues, thus saving time and money."

Steve Gill, IT Consultant

"When we turned the service on, ScanSafe immediately identified over 200 infected desktops throughout the network"

Chris Davrill, Security Manager

"ScanSafe's managed service solution was attractive from the outset because it didn't require our own resources to install and manage equipment and software across both our New York and Los Angeles offices. Prior to selecting ScanSafe, we were seeing an average of 400 incidents of spyware and adware per week. Since our deployment, all of our users are secure and it's been nothing short of a miracle to be able to reallocate more than 30 extra hours of IT resources per week to other activities."

Robert Praul, Project Manager

"I don't think we had ever thought we were going to get hit [with a virus] through IM, we thought of it as low risk. It was just like great, there's another layer I need to cover, I need to have some kind of protection for IM, if [IM Control is] anything like the Web product.....we'll use it."

Gavin Atkinson, Chief Technology Officer

"The ScanSafe service is a hassel free way of managing the ever growing threat of Internet viruses and malevolent attacks. The Internet plays a crucial role to our business but with ScanSafe we can be confident that our Internet users are protected against Web threats before they wreak havoc with our systems"

Chris Simmons, IT Director

"We chose the ScanSafe solution in order to protect our network against the increasing threat of Web bourne viruses. With ScanSafe's managed service I can concentrate on our core business and leave the job of virus protection to the experts"

Nick Scott, IT Director

"As a university we need to be especially vigilant because of our open access policy. ScanSafe provides best of breed protection."
