e-DMZ Security Selects CyberGuard's SG630 Firewall for Inclusion in the Password Auto Repository
CyberGuard SG630 Firewall to Provide Network Protection Component for Industry Leading Security Operations Tool
WILMINGTON, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 25, 2004--
e-DMZ Security LLC, a managed security service provider, today announced their selection of the SG630 Firewall by CyberGuard(R) (Nasdaq:CGFW) to provide network protection for the Password Auto Repository(TM) (PAR). The Password Auto Repository provides individual accountability, dual control, and a strong audit trail for the changing and release of shared administrative IDs such as 'Root' on UNIX and 'Administrator' on Windows. It is the only operations tool available today that offers a comprehensive solution that includes the release, change, and verification of critical passwords.
"Securely storing 'Root' and other administrative passwords requires strong network protection and the SG630 does a stellar job," states Jeff Zupan, VP of Development for e-DMZ Security. "As all of the firewall processing is now handled by the embedded product, we've been able to improve overall appliance performance while increasing firewall capabilities, far superior to those capabilities seen with software-based firewall technology. I foresee the SG series being incorporated into many appliance based solutions."
The SG630 is a complete firewall/VPN solution packaged on a PCI card. It is one of seven SG-series solutions designed to protect critical servers and small to mid-sized networks. Together with its FS, KS and SL series appliances, CyberGuard now offers 13 different firewall/VPN solutions that address security requirements from the core to the edge of the enterprise.
"Being included in an emerging product like the PAR is a great testimony to the capabilities of our SG series," remarks Pat Clawson, CEO of CyberGuard Corporation. "The selection of our product by a security focused and technology driven company like e-DMZ Security reinforces CyberGuard's position as best-of-breed for embedded firewall technology. e-DMZ Security has some of the most experienced firewall engineers in the industry, and we know that they have very high standards for the technology that they support."
The PAR is currently deployed in several Fortune 100 organizations managing systems with deployments scaling to over 3000 managed systems. For product information, please visit http://www.e-dmzsecurity.com/par.html.
