October 3, 2006 – Vicomsoft today announced the launch of InterGate
Policy Manager (PM) v9.2 the first Internet Policy Management
software to run natively on both PowerPC and Intel-based Macs.
Vicomsoft InterGate (PM) v9.2 sets new standards in versatility,
security and user access control. Designed for corporate networks of
any size, it protects business critical systems by providing a set of
network security and monitoring tools that keeps organizations and
users safe from a wide array of Internet threats.
Vicomsoft is delighted to be able to bring new features to the market
in InterGate Policy Manager v9.2. Our clients rely on our ability to
underpin the critical safety and security of their businesses and
their users”, said David Townend, CEO of Vicomsoft.
“The advances in our technologies and the ease of use for those
charged with implementing secure networks and Internet access, makes
InterGate (PM) and Vicomsoft solutions a very attractive and
cost-effective option”.
Vicomsoft InterGate (PM) v9.2 enables enforced ‘Safe Search’ on all
of the main search engines. This means that inappropriate images can
now be excluded from image search engine results, such as Google and
Yahoo.
Time controls provide the ability to create and apply Policies, which
allow you to manage Internet access by time of day and/or day of the
week. As with all InterGate Policy Manager filtering, these
time-based filters can be applied on a per-user or per- group basis.
Additional new features include Automatic Login so that users who are
pre-authenticated via LDAP or Active Directory, no longer need an
additional InterGate (PM) login before accessing the internet.
This latest version, as always with Vicomsoft solutions, is optimised
for Mac OS X, particularly in combination with Apple’s Xserve,
InterGate (PM) provides superb performance on both Mac OS X and
Microsoft Windows operating systems with Internet connections of any
size.
“We have large corporates and many SME clients, as well as public
sector clients especially in education and the police, using
Vicomsoft solutions. The ease of setup and ability to apply flexible
filters to any client Operating System gives the IT team peace of
mind”. Says Paul Conibere, Senior Technical Consultant for Vicomsoft.
Vicomsoft InterGate Policy Manager v9.2 is available from October 3,
2006 as a download from www.vicomsoft.com and there is an upgrade
path for existing clients and free trial periods for those looking at
deploying new software-based security solutions for their networks
