ESafe Protect (eSafe, formerly known as EliaShim Antivirus) is a range of software security products developed by EliaShim Limited, based in Haifa, Israel.[1] The distribution of the products is managed by eSafe Technologies Inc, located in Seattle, United States.
EliaShim was acquired by Aladdin Knowledge Systems in December 1998.[2] The distribution of the consumer desktop version, eSafe Protect, was managed by Aladdin Knowledge Systems until its discontinuation in 2002.[3]
In the following years, the eSafe brand had transformed into a gateway-based content security product, which Aladdin Knowledge Systems sold as an integrated security appliance.[4]
In March 2009, Aladdin Knowledge Systems merged eSafe Protect with SafeNet Inc., which led to the evolution of eSafe into the SafeNet eSafe Content Security product line.
