SmoothWall

SmoothWall offers a suite of Internet Security and Web Content Filtering solutions to meet the needs of SME, education and enterprise users. Formed in 2000, the company now protects well over a million networks worldwide.

With its specialist development team, SmoothWall has harnessed the technical expertise of the Open Source arena to develop affordable and easy-to-use solutions. By having control over the operating system components of its products, SmoothWall is able to manage the potential security vulnerabilities faced by its competitors that run their products on an operating system over which they have no control.

SmoothWall's objective is to give users maximum choice and control over their Internet security. It achieves this by allowing customers to select the most appropriate security modules for their business and also choose the hardware platform on which they want the solution to run.

The Company's web content filtering products enable customers to use the Internet in safety, offering not only protection from the vast amount of objectionable content to be found on the Internet but also controlling access to time-wasting content. In addition, organisations can protect their own business interests by preventing access to non work-related activities like Internet-based chat programs and Peer-to-Peer networks that allow users to break copyright law.
