University of Nevada, Reno Goes to the Head of the Class With Juniper Networks Security Solutions | 2006-04-13 03:57:55 | |
| The University of Nevada, Reno has grown to serve more than 15,000 students and 4,000 faculty and staff on its campus since its inception in 1887. As with most universities, the campus network supports an increasingly large number of users and as a result, is prone to network attacks. Critical data, including department research and student, faculty and staff personal information, must be protected from internal and external abuses such as worms, Trojans and Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. When the University sought to upgrade its existing firewall to a solution with greater speed and scalability, it selected the Juniper Networks integrated firewall and IPSec VPN appliance as well as an Intrusion Detection and Protection (IDP) solution. | |||

Accelerating Security Applications Without Changing the CPU | 2006-04-13 03:54:34 | |
| Sensory Networks and is member of the Intel Communications Alliance, a community of communications and embedded developers and solution providers. The growing number and complexity of threats requires a new breed of network security appliance. Inside the network, IT administrators want an all-in-one solution capable of running anti-virus/ anti-spam software and supporting intrusion detection. Sensory Networks' NodalCore security technology provides the hardware acceleration needed to maintain wire speed while performing the deep packet inspection and analysis required for effective security today. It can be added to a security appliance - either as a co-processor on the motherboard or via a PCI add-in card - to accelerate such security functions as decoding, decompression, hashing, and signature matching. | |||

WatchGuard Relies on Intel Components for Maximum Performance and Scalability | 2006-04-13 03:53:29 | |
| In order for WatchGuard to achieve an effective pricing model for its industry-leading security solutions, engineers must devise clever design efficiencies that keep development costs low. But meeting the varying needs of Small-to-Medium Enterprise (SME) customers - from home users to corporate and branch offices - requires a product line that scales dramatically in performance and features. With these two competing goals, the challenge is to deliver best-in-class security solutions at an affordable price point. WatchGuard achieves maximum design efficiency by segmenting its product family into three lines. Engineers develop one hardware platform for each product line with software keys to activate different performance levels, features and security options. | |||

Affordable, Low-Maintenance Networks Really Perform for Schools in Brazil | 2006-04-13 03:52:22 | |
| Ardence, Inc. is a global leader in designing and developing software solutions. Most network maintenance costs - and problems - stem from the need to configure and support every PC on an individual basis. The situation becomes magnified in schools, where non-technical staff members are charged with maintaining a complex web of hardware and software, and where eager students may unknowingly create maintenance problems through the introduction of viruses, spyware, and so forth. Intel Network Boot Server Solution and Intel Interactive Learning Solution - based on the PXE standard - enable network-bootable PCs to be con. gured from the server, with a fresh boot at each startup, eliminating the source of most desktop maintenance problems. | |||
