Secure Computing Corporation unveiled the company’s new “SWAT” Initiative for protecting organizations from Web 2.0-related threats carried in Web and messaging protocols. The “Secure Web 2.0 Anti-Threat” initiative is an intensive effort to provide corporations with informative research, tools, solutions and best practices vital for companies evaluating – or re-evaluating – their approach to Web and messaging security. At its core, the initiative is aimed at identifying and highlighting the essential components required to provide the best possible protection for businesses operating in a Web 2.0 environment and beyond.

The company’s objective is to leverage its security expertise and ongoing research to help businesses implement a proactive security architecture that can protect their environments as existing Web and messaging threats increase and new threats arise.
