“One of the biggest challenges facing larger organizations today are shrinking IT budgets and an increase in security risks,” said Stephen Pao, vice president of product management for Barracuda Networks. “The Barracuda Web Filter 1010 is our most powerful, fully integrated Web filtering solution to date, making it a perfect choice for high-end customers looking to meet growing security demands without the deployment complexity or per user fees associated with incumbent solutions.”
Like other Barracuda Web Filter models, the Barracuda Web Filter 1010 is an integrated appliance that provides integrated malware protection, content filtering, application policy control, and an embedded database and reporting engine. A single Barracuda Web Filter 1010 can handle one gigabit per second (Gbps) throughput and features a Web cache size of one terabyte (TB).
Able to manage policy for up to 15,000 TCP connections at one time, the Barracuda Web Filter 1010 has four network interfaces that can be used simultaneously in WCCP deployment or in two LAN/WAN pairs in an inline deployment. Multiple Barracuda Web Filter 1010 models can be clustered for both scalability and redundancy. Through the Barracuda Control Center, Barracuda Web Filter models of different sizes can be centrally managed, enabling enforcement of Internet policy across an entire distributed organization.

L'Oréal Welcomes the UK High Court of Justice's Guiding Comments on Measures to Prevent Trade Mark Infringement on eBay's UK PlatformMay 21st, 2009 CLICHY, France - In a decision passed today by the UK High Court of Justice, the court agreed with the view held from the outset by L'Oréal, that eBay could do more to prevent trade mark infringement and suggested 10 measures:
- filter listings before they are posted on the Site - use additional filters, including filters to detect listings of not-for-sale products and unboxed products - filter descriptions as well as titles - require sellers to disclose their names and addresses when listing items - impose additional restrictions on the volumes of high risk products, such as fragrances and cosmetics, that can be listed at any one time - be more consistent in their policies, for example regarding sales of unboxed products - adopt policies to combat types of infringement which are not presently addressed, and in particular the sale of non-European Economic Area (EEA) goods without the consent of the trade mark owners - take greater account of negative feedback (from site users) - apply sanctions more rigorously - be more rigorous in suspending accounts linked to those of users whose accounts have been suspended
The UK High Court of Justice considered that the relevant European trade mark law and the eCommerce Directive were unclear and referred nearly all the issues to the European Court of Justice (ECJ) for further guidance. Since L'Oréal has maintained that eBay cannot benefit from the regime of liability for hosting providers under the eCommerce Directive, it is satisfied to note that the UK Court preferred its view before referring the matter to the ECJ.
