Blue Coat tempts non-traditional security resellers with MACH5

The product enables organisations to accelerate delivery of all key productivity applications to users in branch and remote offices – including file services, email/Exchange, Web applications, video, and secure Web(encrypted SSL) applications.

Leigh Costin, product marketing manager Asia Pacific said the MACH5 encompasses five acceleration techniques that work in concert, i.e. bandwidth management, protocol optimisation, object caching, byte caching and compression.

“The product will appeal not only to traditional security resellers but also to the infrastructure guys,” he said.

Wayne Neich regional sales manager ANZ at Blue Coat said the product adds secure functionality for service providers like ISPs.
