SurfControl will receive revenues resulting from this partnership on a royalty basis.
Nick Outteridge, Director, O.E.M. Technology Partnerships, SurfControl, commented, We are very pleased that GTA have chosen to incorporate our technology into their product set enabling GTA customers to easily implement a comprehensive and effective Internet access control policy. The agreement will further expand our market presence via GTA’s global customer base and enhance GTA’s product offering.
Paul Emerson, President & CEO of GTA, commented, With the integration of SurfControl’s CyberNOT list in GTA’s firewall appliances our customers now have a simple cost effective method of controlling access to questionable web sites.
The relationship with SurfControl is an ideal match and further expands our GNAT Box Security Team with a valued new member. By subscribing to the annual CyberNOT license through GTA – the client can be rest assured that their acceptable usage policy for web surfing remains intact.
GTA’s global presence through our Partner channel means that only a globally researched list will satisfy our customer base, the CyberNOT list fits that requirement given that it is constantly researched in 8 languages.
