LONDON & SAN MATEO, Calif. -- ScanSafe, the pioneer and leading provider of Web Security-as-a-Service, today announced it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the visionaries quadrant of the 'Magic Quadrant for Secure Web Gateway, 2007'1 report.

"We believe our placement in the visionaries quadrant reflects the growing appeal of delivering Web Security-as-a-Service," said Eldar Tuvey, CEO and co-founder, ScanSafe. "As the first company to offer managed Web security services, ScanSafe has a proven track record of ground-breaking innovation that also includes real-time scanning of Web-based threats and the introduction of an early warning system for Internet search threats. We are committed to continued innovation and to make security effortless for businesses of all sizes."

ScanSafe's portfolio of award-winning security services includes Web Malware Scanning, Web Filtering and IM Control. The company's solutions deliver complete security and control over Web and IM traffic by scanning traffic in real-time and blocking malware and unwanted content before it reaches the corporate network.

As fully managed services, ScanSafe solutions require no hardware, upfront capital costs or maintenance and can be deployed in less than one hour. ScanSafe customers typically experience a 30-40 percent decrease in total cost of ownership resulting from increased productivity, reduced bandwidth utilization and by freeing IT staff from the burden of maintenance and remediation of malware-infected PCs.
