City of Lakewood Upgrades Internet Filtering Solution to St. Bernard's iPrism Web Filter

SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - July 21, 2009) - St. Bernard Software, Inc. (OTCBB: SBSW), a leader in Web security appliances, today announced City of Lakewood in California is using the iPrism Web Filter to monitor employee web use throughout the entire enterprise, which includes seven remote filtering sites. Lakewood abandoned a competing solution for iPrism in favor of its granular reports, cost-effective appeal and manageability.

IT administrators at Lakewood were tasked with combating bandwidth drain associated with the use of large files and multimedia sites, such as streaming audio and video. With iPrism's detailed reporting, Lakewood's IT staff can easily monitor what employees are streaming and decide what to block as needed, such as popular P2P sites or social networking sites. Lakewood can retrieve reports faster with iPrism than with their former Websense solution, saving the IT employees over two hours a week and allowing them to quickly enforce their current Internet policy.

City of Lakewood was attracted to iPrism's robust and user-friendly interface, which administrators found easier to navigate than their previous solution. Lakewood also appreciated iPrism's easy install and configuration process, as the entire product is appliance-based and not dependent on a server. This saves the IT team valuable time and money by not requiring them to replace the server every few years.

"We struggled with our previous solution, essentially employing a full-time person to manage the Web filter and its numerous policies. We needed to implement a dependable, cost-effective Web filter that could give us a greater ROI," said Bill Pan, system administrator at City of Lakewood. "With St. Bernard's iPrism, we've put in a smaller investment for greater results. We can quickly identify bandwidth consuming sites to block employee access to, while having St. Bernard's helpful and friendly customer support at our fingertips."

"Companies are tightening their belts and need to spend wisely on resources that don't sacrifice quality. Low total cost of ownership is increasingly important," said Steve Yin, VP of global sales and marketing at St. Bernard. "City of Lakewood is one example of a former Websense customer in search of an affordable, one-stop security tool that's ease to manage, deploy and maintain."

iPrism comes equipped with high-performance anti-virus and anti-spyware as standard features, protecting networks from the dangers of contaminated Web sites and Web 2.0 security threats. The iPrism appliance also utilizes deep packet inspection technology to analyze Web traffic, identify suspicious activity and block access to sites accordingly.
