Norwegian security company Norman ASA has signed an agreement with the Slovenian Ministry of Education and Sports. Norman Virus Control was chosen after a test period that involved five different antivirus vendors.

According to the contract Norman will provide antivirus protection for 25 000 computers until the end of 2007. The agreement was closed through Norman’s distributor Faeton Ltd, company that has already distributed Norman Virus Control to more than 850 different educational institutions under the Ministry of Education.

- Norman Virus Control was chosen as the best solution out of five different solutions. That clearly proves our capacity and ability to detect and remove viruses and other malware. Slovenia and other Eastern-European markets are important to us and this agreement is part our strategy of European expansion, says VP International Operations Francois Tschachtli in Norman International.

Norman’s international headquarter is located in Switzerland as part of the European expansion strategy.

Faeton Ltd. has already been distributing Norman products in Slovenia and Croatian for seven years and points out the high quality of Norman products.

- This agreement is an important recognition for top-level quality of Norman products and the excellent service of the Norman staff, says general manager of Faeton Ltd, Aljaz Prosen.
