Syntech to distribute the G Data Internet and anti virus software

Local ICT distributor, Syntech SA, has announced it is to distribute the range of G data range of products from German software security company, G Data, including the G Data Internet Security and Anti Virus suites.

Craig Nowitz, managing director of Syntech SA, said that with cyber criminals increasingly attacking businesses, an effective security suite is of paramount importance.  ‘The G Data products include two powerful scanning engines, a firewall, spam filters, web protection, application and parental controls, as well as device management tools.

“This,” said Nowitz, “combines to protect companies from the multitude of cyber attacks that are growing on a daily basis.”

Besides all-round virus, spam and phishing protection, G Data’s DoubleScan technology ensures the bestvirus detection rates and boasts state-of-the-art methods for detecting unknown viruses. Additionally, all business products feature application control and device management, enabling business owners to control the use of external devices on their network.  The anti-virus software solution offers added benefits such as Web content filtering – and protects companies against attacks via social network sites.

Explaining further, he said cyber criminals also use social portals for spying on, and collecting, information about a company and its employees – but the Gdata software solution is able to block “these malicious attacks effectively”, thereby giving companies complete peace of mind.

“This entire scope now comes in one package that is easily configurable – and comes to the market at a very competitive price,” said Nowitz.
