The Internet Services Unit (ISU) of King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (KACST) has deployed Blue Coat products to provide secure and productive web access.

KACST is using ProxySG and ProxyAV appliances to provide a first line of defense against Web-based threats for content from both IPv4 and IPv6 sources, Blue Coat Systems, a technology leader in Application Delivery Networking, said.

With the ProxySG appliances, KACST can also effectively meet the increasing bandwidth demands of its clients and provide the scalable infrastructure required to introduce new services in the future, it said. 

The Internet Services Unit of KACST is responsible for providing secure and productive Internet services in Saudi Arabia to academic sectors and research centres. – TradeArabia News Service
