The contract was awarded through the U.S. Air Force's $5B NETCENTS contract vehicle to the Multimax and IceWEB team. Multimax is a NETCENTS prime contractor. DOD and Multimax selected the IceWEB solution because it offers integrated appliances with several key functions - such as Internet security, Privacy and Compliance, Anti-Virus, Anti-Spam, Intrusion Prevention, and Encryption--into a single device. With just one management interface, the systems will protect the government's employees and information systems from the Internet's potential harms through network-wide policies and security enforcement tools.

The Secure Computing TrustedSource(TM) reputation system, part of the IceWEB solution, provides real-time behavior analysis on more than one-third of the world's enterprise messaging traffic. With over 7000 sensors located in 48 countries worldwide, TrustedSource(TM) is the most precise and comprehensive reputation system available. Secure Computing has been able to block 80 percent of harmful connections based purely on reputation data, increasing security levels while maintaining a false positive rate of less than one in one million.

John R. Signorello, CEO and Chairman of IceWEB Inc., said of the contract award, "The IronMail Email Security solutions are key to IceWEB customers and our own hosted messaging solutions. These hardened network security appliances provide world-class protection of data and filtering of harmful email, virus, and spam content."

"These systems enforce important policies for data privacy, encryption, and compliance, all from a single management console across the enterprise," said Multimax CEO Carleton Jones. "I am pleased that DOD recognizes the value of these critical network security systems and the value Multimax and IceWEB represent. The IceWEB solution enhances Multimax's suite of information assurance capabilities."
