Saves Distributors Time and Money

YARDLEY, PA, May 17, 2007 - Distributors looking to ensure the security of their e-business practices now have a new tool in their arsenal. Activant Watchdog helps distributors fend off Internet threats and ensure networks are always up and running.

Watchdog offers comprehensive protection that eliminates the need for a dedicated IT employee to monitor network security.

Each Watchdog installation begins with a thorough analysis of a distributor's network operations to define optimal network configurations and determine the specific security measures appropriate for that business. After the analysis is complete, Activant's network security specialists will install the necessary hardware and software, and coordinate further installations with the appropriate vendors. Once installed, Watchdog automates all security functions.

Watchdog comes equipped with an anti-virus suite that updates its definitions automatically, and because Activant employs enforced anti-virus protection, all of a distributor's networked computers share the same protection, eliminating concern about which computers are protected with the latest virus updates. Watchdog also provides a full line of anti-intrusion services, including spyware protection and a continuously monitored and updated firewall.

Along with these powerful layers of protection, Watchdog offers additional peace of mind in the form of Web site content filtering, attachment scans, encrypted Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections between branch locations, Internet history reporting, and more.
