Press release date: July 5, 2007
CHICAGO, June 5 / - Aladdin Knowledge Systems (NASDAQ:ALDN), the leader in Software DRM, USB-based authentication, and secure Web gateways, today announced that Internet Xpress, a Northeast Washington-based ISP, will begin offering its residential and business ISP customers Aladdin's eSafe SecureSurfing solution in July. eSafe SecureSurfing provides customers with "clean-pipe" Internet access, centrally protecting them against Web-based malware and freeing them of the need to manage desktop- based security solutions to fight spyware, phishing and other threats.
Internet Xpress, a 12-year ISP veteran with a growing customer base in the Pacific Northwest, is offering the service to customers in an effort to provide extremely low-cost Web surfing protection that no other ISPs in the region offer - creating a significant advantage and superior customer experience compared to the local competition. The company plans to offer the service for under $4 a month, with slightly higher fees for business customers.
"We see the addition of Aladdin eSafe's SecureSurfing solution as a key differentiator for both our high-speed and dial-up service," said David Smith, vice president of Internet Xpress. "Customer service is our number one priority. We see safe surfing as a way of providing a highly appealing, valued Internet experience. By offering a low-cost, central service for Web protection, we're that much closer to providing the best possible experience - worry free of threats gained by surfing the Web. The fun in surfing the Web has started to fade, and we're hoping to preserve the enjoyment through security that they don't need to think about - it's simply there."
The Aladdin eSafe SecureSurfing Web security platform is the first-ever technology designed for ISP-managed security services. Internet Xpress customers will gain unparalleled peace of mind while surfing, benefiting from real-time Web surfing security with four-layer spyware blocking; real-time Web surfing Trojan and worm blocking with full inspection of all Web page content; real-time Web surfing exploit, vulnerability, and AJAX client-attacks blocking; and Web email security and antivirus effective for almost any Web- based email service.
"Offered to a growing number of ISPs across the United States, the Aladdin eSafe SecureSurfing solution proves increasingly appealing, as they can offer their customers a worry-free Web surfing experience without requiring any massive capital expenditures or other upfront costs," said Tsion Gonen, vice president of the Aladdin eSafe Business Unit." Through a simply-deployed solution, ISPs such as Internet Xpress stand out among competition, immediately saving their clients from the headaches they all-so-often face with security-related issues."
