Webroot has announced a strategic partnership with gateprotect, a German network security provider. This partnership will enable Webroot to offer real-time endpoint protection with gateprotect's Next Generation Firewall appliances.

The coming together of Webroot SecureAnywhere Business – Endpoint Protection with gateprotect's next generation network security is expected to strengthen protection provided at every endpoint to any network boundary. This partnership is also expected to simplify the management of the joint solutions.


This joint solution provides an end-to-end, holistic approach to complete security. This includes various aspects of security such as next generation UTM firewall, multi-layer anti-malware, data theft prevention, application control and Web filtering. gateprotect considers the partnership with Webroot to be a “significant milestone in its 10-year company history,” and says the company’s security solutions will be enhanced with this partnership.

Webroots’s SecureAnywhere Business Endpoint Protection offers immediate protection and fast scans against threats. The users do not have to download patches and updates and it saves them time. It also provides advanced offline protection against zero-day and highly adaptive threats.

“The security landscape has changed dramatically. As a result, businesses are demanding a more comprehensive approach to security and management, with more attention being placed on maintaining protection as the network perimeter expands," said Dick Williams, CEO at Webroot. "This partnership will leverage each company's key technologies to deliver an end-to-end solution to help businesses solve these complex security challenges. The combined solution enables their users to work more flexibly and extend protection beyond their network perimeter.”

Webroot has been continuously searching for partners to fight against Internet threats. Last year, the company partnered with F5 to integrate its IP Reputation Services into F5’s Traffic Management Operating System (TMOS).
