November 17, 2003 — (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — SonicWALL, Inc. (sonicwall.com) a
r
provider of Internet security solutions, today launched “CFS Premium,” an
r
expanded version of its content filtering service.
r
r
According to the company, the new service is now available in both
r
government/education and business versions.
r
r
The CFS Premium Editions are designed to broaden the current scope of
r
firm’s CFS Standard Edition by increasing the number of filtered categories
r
from 12 to 56 while enhancing the policy-setting features available to
r
network administrators.
r
r
“Businesses of every size are looking for effective ways to improve
r
productivity. Optimizing their bandwidth by limiting access to bandwidth-
r
hogging or districting applications like Internet radio is one way,” said
r
Matt Medeiros, president and CEO of SonicWALL. “Filtering out Web sites with
r
inappropriate content can also limit their exposure to hostile work
r
environment lawsuits.”
r
r
The new Premium Business Edition is available on SonicWALL’s PRO 3060 and
r
PRO 4060 platforms for $1,495 a year, and on the TZ 170 platform for $995 a
r

r
on the PRO 3060 and $795 a year on the TZ 170.
r
r
SonicWALL’s content filtering service employs a rating architecture that
r
uses a dynamic database of URLs, IP addresses, and domains to block
r
multiple categories of objectionable content.
