Bracknell, UK, -- Webroot, the first Internet security service company, has today announced a new partnership with RMS IT Security, a leading IT security solutions provider. RMS IT Security will provide email and web security, as well as email archiving services to its growing UK customer base.

"We were impressed with Webroot's technology and are confident that their solutions will be a great addition to our portfolio," said Martin Blackhurst, Product Manager at RMS IT Security. "One of our goals in 2011 is to help customers with their cost saving initiatives and Security-as-a-Service (SaaS) will play a major part in this. Webroot's web and email services enable us to support our customers in their effort to control costs whilst keeping their security at its best."
