One of the top three IT exhibitions in the world, GITEX celebrated its 25th Anniversary in 2005. This Year, the show gets all geared up to carry forward the momentum in full force, highlighting the latest in technology from international manufacturers and suppliers. The World's most advanced Security Solutions provider, Microworld Technologies will be presenting its complete portfolio of futuristic AntiVirus, Content Security and Firewall products at the mega exposition.

IT security has become a major area of spotlight in the Middle East Region as online threats continue to become increasingly sophisticated and more targeted in nature. According to market analysts at IDC, the UAE led Middle East spent $4.72 b in 2005 for e-security and the firm says the figures will go even higher this year at an annual growth rate of 18.6%.

"Dubai is always through which the future entered into the Persian Gulf and IT security is no different," says Nazir Kazi, Regional Head - Middle East, MicroWorld Technologies. "A great eagerness for innovative ideas and a keen interest in new technologies have always been the traits of the business community in the entire region. You will be surprised to see their awareness levels and most firms are now looking forward to Proactive Solutions in Digital Security with comprehensive threat protection, as stakes are huge in this literally high inflammatory business zone!"

Already generating a flood of enquiries in the run up to the show are eScan, MailScan and eConceal from MicroWorld Technologies, which incidentally are the fastest growing security products in the geographical region.

The flagship product, eScan is the comprehensive AntiVirus and Content Security solution designed to protect Enterprises and Home Users against Viruses, Trojans, Worms, Trojan Droppers, Rootkits, Spyware, Adware, Keyloggers, Hackers, Spam, Phishing, privacy related issues and objectionable content.

To provide a two way Security Gateway for email systems of Enterprises, MicroWorld offers MailScan, the total Content Security and Traffic Scanning software for Mail Servers. It scans and cleans mails that flow between all local users and the mails between the Internet and Mail Server, to protect organizations against all breeds of malware, Spamming, Phishing and Mail Content threats.

The futuristic Firewall, eConceal, is a comprehensive network firewall developed to prevent unauthorized access to a computer or network connected to the Internet. It enforces a boundary between two or more networks by implementing default or user-defined Access Control Policies or Rules. eConceal's Stealth Mode option allows you to surf the Internet invisibly, without letting other online users see you.

"It's our continued mission to create newer concepts and technologies in fighting all sorts of online malice, as the darker side of the web too is advancing really fast. The attackers are coming up with more sophisticated Viruses, deadlier vulnerability exploits, sharper hacking tools and of course some very smart Social Engineering. As much as our fight is about defeating these new and emerging threats, it's about exceeding our own standards in keeping the customer faith and confidence placed in us," affirms Govind Rammurthy, CEO of MicroWorld Technologies.
