Veritech : Network Technology + Innovation

necessities of operating their business and how they can achieve things most effectively.

Internet Security is one of the necessities for businesses as the menace of viruses, hackers and spam are

constant and costly. Businesses need to ensure that they keep their networks safe from various threats, but at

the same time, allow access and flexibility for their customers and employees.

Veritech Corporation, in collaboration with European developer Endian, offers an innovative and robust

Unified Threat Management system which allows small to medium sized businesses to balance internet

security with access at an affordable price. The Endian UTM is a progressive device with forward-looking

security features; It is an all-in-one appliance that provides security and Internet access combined with a

stateful firewall, email security, web security, gateway antivirus and anti-spam, intrusion detection, virtual

private network (VPN) and hotspot (wireless security).

By providing adequate security solutions in one centralised device businesses using an Endian UTM can

leverage business costs through reduced staff downtime, increased business and staffing flexibility and

reduced maintenance and power costs.

Veritech Corporation CEO Livio Mazzon understands how important it is for businesses to cut unnecessary

costs, and fine-tune necessary costs in the current uncertain marketplace. “UTM systems save businesses

time and money and allows them to continue operating efficiently, which is crucial in the current economic

climate. As a business owner myself, I need to ensure we have the most price-effective security possible,

without compromising on the data security for ourselves, and our customers. We became distributors for

Endian products because they have an outstanding feature to price ratio”, commented Mr Mazzon.

Endian has ensured that their device is intuitive and easy to use; small-medium businesses do not require

highly skilled IT staff for installation or ongoing usage, which reduces unnecessary training and Human

Resources costs.

Furthermore, businesses using the Endian have reduced maintenance costs, as a result of having one- only

centralised provider for security needs. It simplifies the troubleshooting process, with only one provider to

deal with when solving problems, all of which is critical for small to medium sized businesses who do not

have the IT expertise available in house. Additionally, with the expertise in support and building of the

hardware products now existing in Veritech’s office in Australia, businesses will benefit from more direct,

immediate and professional support.

Unlike many other UTM systems, Endian uses open source technology, thus lowering development costs. As

a result Veritech has positioned the Endian Firewall Mini and Endian Firewall Mercury ideally for small –

medium businesses and ensures great value for money.

Veritech has also developed its own add-on to the Endian product range. Coined the “Veritoken”, it is a

USB key which allows people to connect back to their workplace using a secure, robust VPN tunnel.

Leveraging the OpenVPN system which is part of the Endian UTM engine, a person can quickly install and

connect back to their workplace wherever they travel. By taking the Veritoken with them, they also leave no

method for others to hack into the workplace network.

“Here is another example of smart choices in IT”, said Mr Mazzon. “Simple and quick to use, and without

the hassles associated with other complex VPN protocols, it passes through firewalls easily and still provides

excellent levels of security. We are proud to be behind this great new Australian innovation!”
