Wizable and Quaresso Sign OEM Agreement to Integrate Protect On Q With Wizable's ibox
Unique package offers a powerful, secure, flexible and expandable solution to address rapidly changing business needs in the web application access space.
SAN JOSE, Calif., March 29 -- Wizable, Inc. and Quaresso Software Technologies, Inc. announced today that they are broadening their strategic relationship by entering into an OEM agreement that enables Wizable to integrate and resell Quaresso's Protect On Q product with its ibox product line. The addition of Quaresso's recently announced Protect On Q on-demand browser security product to the ibox provides the most cost-effective and flexible web application access solution in the industry, with industry-leading protection of web browser information.
Targeted at organizations with web applications handling sensitive data -- such as webmail, SharePoint, web-enabled SAP, or Siebel applications -- yet require a user-friendly portal with advanced information protection mechanisms. Web-based applications are protected via a single SSL encrypted portal fortified with an armored browser that thwarts malware and data theft. Existing alternatives can be an order of magnitude more expensive, and require a larger, less transparent approach. Remote employees and business partners can access business applications with better protection of credentials, and security controls can be implemented to disable a variety of actions: for example, prevent users from saving webmail attachments to the local PC.
Thomas Oertli, Global CEO of Wizable, states: "Our customers are telling us they need to protect the data delivered in their web sessions for a wide range of reasons, from compliancy regimes to concerns over loss of confidential data. The combination of the two products provides customers with end-to-end access to high assurance web applications while ensuring data privacy and control."
The integrated product, which is currently undergoing customer trials, will be marketed, sold and supported by Wizable's global sales force. Mark Elliott, CEO of Quaresso, remarks: "As application access moves to being purely web-based access, the ibox is well positioned to deliver cost-effective, user-friendly web access. Instead of streaming a browser or virtual desktop, ibox along with Protect On Q gives customers better security, performance and usability while offering significant cost savings versus alternatives such as traditional terminal servers, virtualization-based solutions or SSL VPN solutions."
The combined product will offer a unique set of features, including:
-- Adaptive, self learning content rewriting and compression for maximum
compatibility and speed
-- Built-in self-service support processes, e.g., PIN reset via
self-service portal without requesting help desk support
-- Increased scalability and cost reduction by using one administrative
portal
-- Enables enhanced session security with an on-demand armored browser
for sensitive web applications, based on granular policy definitions
and without requiring admin privileges on the client
-- Enforces browser data leakage prevention to eliminate user's ability
to "leak" information from web sessions to the browsers' local
operating system (policy-driven enforcement)
-- Real-time information protection of browser-delivered content against
malware such as keyloggers, frame grabbers and/or browser injection.
Quaresso's Protect On Q product offers an innovative way to prevent malicious attacks via the Internet, enabling web sites to deliver a temporary, armored browser to its users. Web sessions are monitored and protected from client-side malware, spyware and other stealth attacks. The solution works completely on-demand, with no client-side software to be maintained and, subsequently, no help-desk calls to be answered. It is downloaded transparently to the user's browser and removed after the user terminates the session. As a result, companies can provide seamless, automatic security that gives users outstanding data protection for web-based applications.
Wizable's ibox solves one of today's key application delivery challenges. Employees, vendors and off-site clients require access to multiple applications from home or on the road. However, exposing multiple web servers to the Internet increases a company's threat surface. Wizable allows customers to deploy any number of web-based applications through the ibox secure portal by rerouting HTTP traffic from the client browser to the target application. Access to the ibox can be restricted using almost any two-factor authentication scheme. The ibox is available both as a hardware appliance as well as a software appliance.
