MCLEAN, Va., June 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- CYREN (NASDAQ:
CYRN), a global provider of cloud-based security solutions, today
announced that The New Saints Football Club (TNS), a member of the
Corbett Sports Welsh Premier League and the Union of European
Football Associations (UEFA), is one of the first UK organizations
to adopt the cloud-based CYREN WebSecurity solution.
The football club chose CYREN WebSecurity through VCW Security,
a leading UK distributor of IT security solutions and new CYREN
partner. VCW Security announced its partnership with CYREN
just last month – and already finds itself securing online traffic
for a leading football club's players, coaches and
administrators.
Less than 60 days since their distribution partnership began,
VCW Security and CYREN see fast-growing interest among
organizations currently exposed to potentially crippling internet
security risks. Delivering the low cost and high utility of
cloud-based applications, CYREN WebSecurity is ideally suited to
address explosive growth in the Security as a Service (SecaaS)
markets that are driven by an increasingly mobile workforce, BYOD
trends, and low cost, high utility cloud-based applications and
storage.
"CYREN WebSecurity will serve as a key component of our football
club's comprehensive e-security efforts," said Ian Williams, COO at TNS. "By deploying CYREN's
cloud-based service, we will ensure safe web access for our entire
organization, including coaches, staff and players. The ability to
protect our users on a wide variety of devices was one of the key
top reasons for our choice."
"The short time that it took to sign our first end-user deal is
a reflection of VCW's security expertise as well as the unmatched
protection that CYREN WebSecurity offers as a full-featured,
comprehensive SecaaS solution," said Simon
Jackson, commercial director at VCW Security. "We are
particularly pleased that our first install will help guard a
football club against ever-growing internet threats."
"CYREN WebSecurity continues to spark interest among
distributors and resellers who serve their local organizations on a
daily basis and see firsthand the many benefits of a SecaaS
solution, including enhanced next generation internet protection
and unmatched convenience," said Lior
Samuelson, CEO and Chairman of the Board at CYREN. "VCW
Security's upcoming deployment of CYREN WebSecurity at a well-known
UK football club just further underscores the level of innovation
and simplicity that we are pleased to jointly offer."
