Network Box USA Adds JCS & Associates as Channel Partner

HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwire - September 22, 2009) - Network Box USA (www.networkboxusa.com), the American arm of worldwide managed security service provider Network Box Corp., has signed JCS & Associates, Inc. as a channel partner to sell the award-winning Network Box unified threat management (UTM) appliance. With headquarters in Ann Arbor, Mich., and offices throughout the United States and Canada, JCS & Associates, Inc. has sold, installed and integrated more implementations and desktops with end-point security solutions than any other individual integrator in North America.

"JCS & Associates is well established in the information systems security market, and we're excited to add them to our channel program," said Randy Hays, Network Box USA's director of sales. "They have broad knowledge of the industry and a keen understanding of what best serves their customers' network environment. The company is a perfect fit for our UTM device."

The Network Box UTM is a remotely managed Internet threat prevention and security appliance that weaves together numerous applications -- firewall, intrusion prevention and detection, virtual private network, content filtering, anti-virus, anti-spam, anti-phishing, and anti-spyware -- into a single, sophisticated hybrid of hardware and software. It enables businesses to combat hackers, worms, backdoors and other online menaces, easily and cost-effectively.

"Putting everything in a single device goes along the same lines as what we do on the end-point -- putting multiple security functions in a single agent," said Jim Shaeffer, president of JCS & Associates, Inc. "We're good at telling that story. Partnering with Network Box USA, we can now also tell it on the network-edge side of things.

"Not only is the Network Box a terrific, comprehensive product, it's fully managed by Network Box USA; this will make life so much easier for our customers. Network Box USA is the first managed security service provider we've represented, and it's a very promising partnership because managed security is definitely the wave of the future."
