Internet Gold Adopts Aladdin Solution as Platform for New "eSafe Gold" Secure
Line of Services
PETACH TIKVA, Israel, December 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Internet Gold,
(Nasdaq NMS: IGLD - News) today announced the launch of "eSafe Gold", its new
Secured Internet Access Service for residential users. Based on state-of-the-art
technology developed by Aladdin Knowledge Systems (Nasdaq: ALDN - News), a
leading innovator in secure content management, the service allows users to
"surf" the Internet freely, while protecting their computers against viruses,
spyware, Trojan horses, and other on-line threats.
This low-cost service (NIS 9.90 per month) is provided transparently via the
company's servers and eliminates the need for purchasing or installing specialty
software, requires no maintenance or instructions, and does not disrupt users'
surfing experiences when threats are encountered.
"Today's most dangerous threats are those received through normal Internet
surfing and not only those attached to emails," said Mr. Eli Holtzman, CEO of
Internet Gold. "Spyware, Trojan horses and the like, secretly implant themselves
and transmit private data to the outside world, the only evidence of which is
the gradual slow-down of computer performance and degradation of surfing speed.
The protection available to average users, such as anti-virus programs or
personal firewalls, is often insufficient; either because the programs are not
kept up-to-date or because they are too intrusive, requiring average customers
to constantly respond to confusing questions."
"The new eSafe Gold service takes a different approach that is customized for
non-expert users. The eSafe Gold Secure Internet Surfing lines requires
absolutely no configuration or maintenance on the part of the end-user, yet
filters data accessed in real-time; protecting the consumer against threats
without degrading surfing speed or interrupting normal web activities."
Aladdin's advanced content protection solution is currently in use in a wide
range of commercial, banking, and military enterprises throughout the world,
securing thousands of networks that interconnect millions of computers. Smile
Internet Gold is the first Internet Service Provider to deploy Aladdin's
solution to secure its users' communications and thereby offer server-based
"Secure Surfing" to its customers.
Dror Irani, Aladdin's eSafe Vice President added, "Our technology deployed by
Internet Gold will offer a high level of real-time defense against today's
vicious Internet-based threats - much higher than can be provided by regular
software packages and personal firewalls. We have designed the solution for
average users and believe it offers thorough, simple, and effective protection
of their computers."
