At Interop 2008 in Las Vegas, from April 29 - May 1, 2008, at the AMCC Booth #458, NetClarity will showcase its new 'green' NACwall Micro appliance, which is designed to secure small offices, home offices and branch offices. Powered by AMCC PowerPC embedded processors, these Network Access Control (NAC) appliances, use low power and create little heat, have no moving parts and fit in the palm of your hand.
NetClarity's new patented NACwall appliances not only keep criminals off a network, behind a firewall but they also show, with pinpoint accuracy all of the vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs) in network equipment that a cyber criminal or hacker will exploit. More than 95 percent of successful cybersecurity breaches occur as a direct result of an exploit against a known vulnerability, that occurs most often behind a firewall or in a demilitarized zone (DMZ) or on an encrypted wireless network, according to USCERT.
Vice President of Marketing at AMCC, Sam Fuller, said:
"NetClarity has created an innovative security solution based on our AMCC PowerPC embedded processor in their new line of NACwall appliances for Network Access Control (NAC) of smaller wired and wireless networks and remote offices". "We are excited to see our embedded processors helping to address NAC market challenges."
Installing a NACwall appliance behind a firewall takes just a matter of minutes on a subnet and less than 20 minutes to become fully operational, because of NACwall's ability to work as a non-inline solution and without client-based technology. The installed cost of NACwalls on the network, by not requiring system-wide network upgrades of switches and routers, is typically ten to 20 times less than its competitors.
Through market leading information security channel partners throughout the globe, NetClarity's NACwall appliances are already being distributed in 35 countries.
Without the need for agent or client software, NetClarity's patented NACwall appliances deploy in minutes behind any firewall or router. Eliminating the need for expensive upgrades, it works with the rest of an existing networking and legacy infrastructure.
