Under terms of the agreement, Azlan will promote Websense Enterprise as the sole Internet filtering software to integrate with the Cisco line of security products that Azlan sells to its base of more than 10,000 potential value-added resellers (VARs) across 15 countries in Europe.With the addition of Azlan, we will be able to reach out to a large number of Cisco and security focused VARs and integrators, enabling us to accelerate the growth of Websense across all of Europe on Cisco platforms, said Geoff Haggart, vice president of Websense, EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa).

In addition to Websense, Azlan offers a comprehensive range of security oriented software and hardware solutions from leading high-tech manufacturers, including Cisco, RSA Security, Open Systems.com, Nortel Networks and Novell. Websense Enterprise will represent a key management component that strongly compliments Azlan’s existing secure networking and communications solutions.

We have seen strong and rising demand for employee Internet management products

that complement existing network infrastructures, and we are very pleased to now be working with the world’s leading brand, said Douglas Staples, group business manager for security at Azlan. Websense is truly the corporate de facto filtering standard.
