Enabling the High-Performance Next Generation Firewall | 2008-04-04 | Crossbeam Systems |
| The traditional practice of deploying an ever-increasing number of appliances and applications to combat increasing security risks creates an infrastructure that is too complex, costly, and slow to react to new threats. Nowadays, enterprises managers want to move to a new kind of virtualized security architecture that supports the requirements of a Next Generation Firewall, but also consolidates deployments, reduces cost, and delivers much faster threat response. Crossbeam Systems, working closely with Check Point and Sourcefire, has developed a tightly coupled, high-performance, scalable, and reliable Next Generation Firewall solution that has been designed from the ground up to offer the best protection and performance for detecting and eliminating multiple levels of threats that target mission critical IT infrastructure and data.

The Future of Branch Protection: Real-Time Connected Security | 2008-04-01 | LSI |
| Today, managed network security services represent less than one percent of the overall security equipment and services market. The convergence of a broad spectrum of security technologies including IT security, surveillance, alarm monitoring, biometrics, access control and response, RFID-based article surveillance, and homeland security, creates new opportunities for intelligent, real-time connected security capabilities. The ultimate goal of real-time connected security is to use all available data sources in real-time to detect and respond appropriately to security threats or abnormal situations. This paper addresses the exciting new innovations at the silicon, software, and system level that are required to make this happen and the innovations that LSI is contributing to the market.
