Olayemi Popoola, managing director of Reliance Infosystems, discussed the new security appliance at a technology roadshow held in Lagos.
He said Cyberoam UTM has a unique value proposition of identity-based threat management components that are all-encompassing.
Popoola said: "The unique feature of Cyberoam is its ability to empower IT security
professionals to be able to granularly weave the security architecture of their organisations around the human elements. Facebook will not just pop open by itself if no one initialises it.”
The Layer 8 innovation can also be used in fostering branch connectivity and users' productivity.
Popoola added: “This layer 8 advantage is a milestone achievement, a landmark technology breakthrough and strategic tool in the hands of IT Security professionals to further push organisational security beyond the traditional boundaries."
