TrustportHyderabad, February 19, 2010 – Leading security software producer based out of Europe, TrustPort Inc., announced its foray into Indian market through its subsidiary, TrustPort India. Vladislav Němec, chief executive officer of TrustPort Inc., made this announcement to the media today. TrustPort India will have its marketing office at Mumbai and its operational and support services based out of Hyderabad.

According to a recent prognosis by IDC, spending in the field of information technologies will increase this year by 3.2% worldwide. More than a half of this growth should be generated in the so called new markets. The main drive of the growth will be the very promising markets of Brazil, Russia, India, and China. These countries alone should grow by 8 to 13% in the information technologies expenditures. Security software will be an integral part of the growth.

TrustPort is a security software producer based in the heart of Europe, in the city of Brno, renowned in the region for its support of innovative technologies. It has been developing an extensive partner network on all continents, reaching its products to both end users and corporate clients. India comes as a natural market for further business expansion of TrustPort. “We have watched with great interest the stable growth of information technologies in India,” explains Vladislav Němec. ”Our entrance to the market was just a matter of time, and the time is here.”

Reaching out to newer markets also means making provision for technical support. “We want our clients to feel that we care about their satisfaction,” reveals Roman Veleba, international sales manager at TrustPort Inc. “That is why we are establishing a round-the-clock support hotline at the technical support center in Hyderabad. Our clients may use the hotline for any questions regarding product installation, configuration, and troubleshooting.” Support center will typically resolve client’s problem within twenty four hours. “Hyderabad will be the hub for our operations,” adds Roman Veleba. “Besides technical support, product manufacturing, production and distribution will be done from Hyderabad. Hyderabad ranks high on our priority as this city offers pool of experienced networking and technical personnel besides its easy access to other parts of the country for logistical reasons.”

TrustPort has a wide product portfolio, suitable for the needs of diverse customers and diverse technologies. “Our primary focus in India will be TrustPort Antivirus, compact solution for personal computer protection, and TrustPort PC Security, comprehensive solution for versatile data protection,” says Vladislav Němec. “Both products provide antivirus, antispyware, and antispam protection; they guard the computer at all its entry points, including internet connection and removable memory media.”

These products use powerful antivirus technology, based on multiple scanning engines. Thanks to this technology, they regularly rank among the top antivirus solutions in the world, in terms of viruses and spyware detection.  Their counterparts, TrustPort Antivirus Business and TrustPort PC Security Business, offer in addition the possibility of central management on multiple workstations in a company network. TrustPort USB Antivirus supplements the portfolio with an inexpensive and effective protection of flash drives. 

TrustPort has market presence in almost sixty countries of the world, through its authorized partners. The aim of the company is to take advantage of its current comparative qualities and become a worldwide recognized alternative to the earlier established antivirus vendors.

Vladislav_NemecBrno, January the 19th, 2010 – TrustPort Antivirus security product has been thoroughly tested by the well known West Coast Labs. The aim was to test the functionality and performance of this antivirus solution. Based on the tests carried out, TrustPort Antivirus received the Checkmark certification in the categories of Anti-Virus Desktop and Anti-Virus Disinfection. In addition to the periodic awards from Virus Bulletin and from AV-Comparatives, West Coast Labs Checkmark has become another key independent test, confirming the quality of TrustPort Antivirus.

West Coast Labs provides certification in a wide range of test categories, falling within areas of network security, content security, and malware protection. TrustPort Antivirus was tested in two categories of the last mentioned area. In the Anti-Virus Desktop category, the condition for the certification was that the product would detect all malicious codes from a submitted set of in-the-wild viruses. In the Anti-Virus Disinfection category, certification was based on the ability of the product to clean the computer from in-the-wild viruses, collected during the last twelve months.

“This renowned certification is further indication that the customers may completely rely on TrustPort Antivirus in terms of detection and disposal of malware,” commented the event Vladislav Němec (photo), chief executive officer of TrustPort. “It is also good to understand that the certified antimalware technology, being the cornerstone of TrustPort Antivirus, is contained in TrustPort PC Security and TrustPort Net Gateway as well. With all these products, the customers now have a fair assurance of quality.” 

To be truly effective, antivirus protection must be used at all entry points of the computer. This is why TrustPort Antivirus and TrustPort PC Security scan both the internet traffic, meaning incoming mail and browsed websites, and the memory media, connected to the computer. Computer security is further increased by the parental lock technology, which limits browsing of risky categories of websites.

“Our business partners are aware of our software quality but they need to illustrate it, especially to customers from the corporate segment and public administration,” said Marcela Parolková, head of sales department at TrustPort. “Thanks to continuing technological innovations, we have been lately at the top of independent comparative tests of security products. Now we have also acquired the major world certification, West Coast Labs Checkmark. We are sure that our partners will welcome this.”

TrustPort Antivirus and TrustPort PC Security are designed for both home users and corporate customers. Under the names TrustPort Antivirus Business and TrustPort PC Security Business, top security solutions are available, with central administration of all workstations in a corporate network. TrustPort Management central administration tool offers easy installations, updates and settings of software using a single web interface.
