“The Web Server software market is a complex industry, which continues to be dominated by free solutions in Apache and IIS,” said CEO John Paterson. “As Web traffic continues to grow and security and scalability become real issues for more and more companies, those companies will have to give more attention to their fundamental Web infrastructure. The Zeus family of products are the only Web infrastructure products capable of meeting these requirements.”
