If you didn't think competitor's relationships in the proxy space were contentious enough, a recent press release (linked above) from Secure seems to go to show there's really no holds barred between these two competitors.
Secure Computing put out what seems an innocuous enough press release about a new customer of theirs, Joy Global. The problem comes when they claim this customer is a former Blue Coat customer and discusses the problems the customer had with the Blue Coat solution.
Why is this such a problem? Blue Coat has come out saying that Joy Global has never been a Blue Coat customer, and all the statements with regard to the Blue Coat products are incorrect and misleading.
It'll be interesting to see how Secure responds to this one, but if in fact Blue Coat's claim is true, that puts Secure another notch lower on the integrity scale.
