SurfControl, the net filtering company, is half way towards its target of recruiting 40 UK resellers for its new three-tier accreditation programme.

The company say it's "avoided going through distribution to avoid flooding the market, keep margins high and to help create real business opportunities for our partners".

Surfcontrol is a useful component in a networking security portfolio sale, the company reckons.

The company also owns Cyber Patrol, targeted at the retail market, but embedded in several third-party corporate products. The Register was placed - briefly - on Cyber Patrol's banned list earlier this year. But we are included on Surf Control's list of approved sites for corporate filtering. So that's all right then. ®
