Bloxx, the innovator in Web and email security has announced the release of virtual appliance versions of its Web Filter and Secure Web Gateway. The virtual appliances have identical functionality to the current hardware appliances, making them an ideal choice for organizations that have a virtualization strategy and are looking to move their security infrastructure to a virtual environment.
“These new virtualized products build on Bloxx’s solid foundation in appliance-based Web filtering and security, but also deliver all the benefits offered by virtualization,” said Graham Twaddle, Chief Technology Officer at Bloxx. “Bloxx is now able to offer unrivalled Web content filtering that includes our patent-pending real-time content analysis and categorization engine, Tru-View Technology, either as a hardware or virtual appliance”.
mhs homes group, the largest landlord in Medway, is one of the first customers to deploy the Bloxx Virtual Appliance.
“We have recently deployed the Bloxx Web Filter Virtual Appliance and have been remarkably impressed with the smooth and straightforward installation, the functionality, and the overall performance of the product,” said Stuart MacLellan, Head of ICT at mhs homes group. “The Bloxx support and implementation team pulled all the stops out to deliver this solution on a tight timescale and the rapid deployment along with all of the benefits that come with virtualization have already been hugely beneficial to the group.”
