Clavister Secures Breakthrough Order in Brazil

July 2014 by Marc Jacob

Clavister and LeverTech, the Brasília-based specialist in sustainable technology, have received a breakthrough order for Clavister’s next-generation firewall solutions from a federal authority in Brazil.

The authority has placed an initial order for Clavister solutions to secure and load-balance communications between 40 of its regional offices across the country, with the potential for further substantial orders following the initial deployment. Using Clavister’s gateways will give the Brazilian authority a scalable, easy to manage platform for securing its business data and voice communications against interception.

Over several years Clavister and LeverTech have worked with Brazilian universities and IT research centres to develop solutions that meet the country’s market-specific requirements, including auditing of IT products sold to Government organisations to ensure they have no backdoors that could compromise data security.

Brazil has the world’s seventh largest economy and the fifth largest Internet population. A 2014 survey by research firm Vanson Bourne found that of 500 IT decision makers in the UK, France, Germany, USA, Brazil, Hong Kong and Singapore, Brazil had the highest proportion (52%) of respondents who said that cyber security was a major concern for their business. This contrasted with 41% in the US, and just 17% in the UK. The country’s information security market was worth a billion dollars in 2013, and is expected to continue to grow rapidly.

In April this year, the Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff ratified new legislation guaranteeing Internet privacy to the country’s citizens. The Brazilian government has committed itself to defending online freedom with a range of measures, following news in 2013 that Rousseff and Brazilian state interests had been targeted for surveillance by foreign powers.
