Calyptix Builds Staff to Meet Market Demand
December 5, 2007 — CHARLOTTE, NC
Internet security firm,
Calyptix Security
Corporation
has extended its sales staff as well as its development staff in
accommodating the growing demands for its UTM (Unified Threat
Management) device, AccessEnforcer™.
Calyptix' sales efforts will be significantly stepped up with these
additional team members, enabling the company to build on the strong
installation base already making Internet security simpler and more
cost effective for small to medium-sized businesses across a wide
range of business sectors.
Ben Sanders and Scott McConnell, joining the Calyptix team as
Channel Sales Representatives, are broadening the exposure of
AccessEnforcer across the Southeast. Their exuberance for the
product and the company supports the sales progress that is already
being made in a variety of business sectors across the Southeast.
The Calyptix development team is also growing with the addition of
two programmers. Josh Pilkington, a Microsoft Specialist, is working
on integration with Microsoft environments and software that impacts
AccessEnforcer's internal systems and new development. Zach Wadler,
a Unix Specialist, is contributing to quality assurance, process
automation and development.
"This is an exciting time for Calyptix. Our staff expansion is a
direct result of our growing success with customers and partners.
The UTM is being rapidly adopted by businesses across all sectors,
including healthcare, retail, legal, accounting, non-profits and
financial services organizations," comments Calyptix CEO Ben
Yarbrough. "Most IT professionals recognize that the traditional
firewall is simply not enough anymore in today's threat environment.
We will continue to build our team to address the demands we are
experiencing in both sales support and development."
Calyptix Security, launched by
Drs.
Yuliang Zheng and Lawrence Teo,
makes AccessEnforcer available to small to medium size businesses
(SMBs), providing a comprehensive affordable solution that is easily
activated, managed and maintained.
AccessEnforcer protects networks from spam, viruses, spyware,
unauthorized web surfing, hackers and other cyber threats in
organizations in the professional and financial services,
manufacturing and not-for-profit sectors. The appliance is offered
by authorized resellers that seek comprehensive security
strategies for their clients. Calyptix Security's expertise is evidenced in
several industry-wide vulnerability discoveries and in DyVax™,
the company's proprietary inspection engine that dynamically filters
email traffic, executable files and Microsoft Office files from true
zero-day threats without reliance on signatures. DyVax has proven
more successful than leading antivirus solutions.
