Proland Software Announces Strategic Partnership With VirusBuster

Cranes Software Subsidiary Proland Software, an IT security company that owns the Protector Plus range of anti-virus software products, has entered into a strategic partnership with VirusBuster, a Hungary-based security solutions provider.

The partnership is an important step for VirusBuster to strengthen its position in international markets, and will increase Proland’s existing product portfolio. Through the agreement, the Indian company will be able to provide a wider selection of security solutions to its customers, and expand its presence from a predominantly home/ single user base to the enterprise/ office segments.

The Indian anti-virus industry has seen double digit growth in the recent past. With India rapidly emerging as one of the fastest growing Internet user base in Asia (over 81 million surfers), the need for security solutions against online attacks will be the most critical task in the coming years for computer users, be they individuals or organisations.

The partnership, which combines Proland’s market experience and knowledge with VirusBuster’s technology, is expected to create best-of-breed security solutions. The two companies see a lot of synergy from this deal, a stronger technical collaboration, better resource utilisation and a big boost to research and development in both organisations.

The alliance of Proland with VirusBuster will add a lot of value to Proland’s product offering. As VirusBuster’s anti-malware engine is platform (operating system) independent in nature, Proland is flexible to reach all segments for solutions ranging from home to enterprise, including service providers.
