June 02, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
(Fayetteville, NC) Advanced Internet Technologies, Inc. (www.AIT.com) announced that they have concluded a partnership which permits AIT to sell Barracuda Networks products. “I am excited about this partnership,” said Bill Harrison, Product Manager for AIT. “It is a perfect match with AIT’s product line. Barracuda Networks application security appliances allow systems network administrators to concentrate on more important tasks than dealing with spam and excessive web usage. The Barracuda Web Filter can be installed in seconds and shows a return on investment in days.”

The Barracuda Web Filter (http://www.ait.com/barracuda.php) permits organizations to monitor internet traffic, improve productivity, cut costs and lessen bandwidth consumption. Administrators can set up groups and users, block access, warn on certain sites, allow others, and disallow users from searching for pornographic images. The Barracuda Web Filter is easy to use, can be set up quickly, and will allow administrators to start viewing Internet traffic activity on their network. It is competitively priced and will show a return on investment in a short period of time.

Barracuda Spam Firewall is the perfect solution for the reduction of spam. It is an integrated hardware and software solution for complete protection of your email server. Barracuda provides a powerful, easy to use, and affordable solution to eliminating spam from your organization. A single Barracuda Spam Firewall supports up to 30,000 active email users and blocks 95% of spam emails. According to Mike Roberts, CIO of AIT, “Within 24 hours of installation, the Barracuda Spam Firewall blocked over 200,000 spam emails. More than 90% of the email we were receiving was spam.”

Multiple Barracuda Spam Firewalls can be clustered for greater capacity and higher availability. All Barracuda Spam Firewall models incorporate essential outbound filtering techniques including attachment scanning, virus filtering, rate controls and encryption. These features help organizations to ensure that all outgoing email is legitimate and virus-free.

The Barracuda Spam Firewall’s layered approach minimizes the processing of each email, which yields the performance required to process millions of messages per day. Unlike software solutions, the Barracuda Spam Firewall reduces the load placed on the email server by off-loading both spam and virus filtering. Its architecture leverages 12 comprehensive defense layers to provide industry leading defense capabilities

Customer options include buying the equipment through AIT, collocating hosting solutions with us, and managed service with a monthly fee. AIT can provide a solution tailor-made for our customers.
