Organizations of Any Size Can Now Implement Defense in Depth Strategies
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 15, 2005--Network Engines, Inc.,
(NASDAQ:NENG <http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=neng&d=t> - News
<http://finance.yahoo.com/q/h?s=neng> ), a leading provider of best
practice security appliances, today announced the introduction of two
new members of its in the NS Series Security Appliances--the NS6200 and
NS6400. The entire family of NS Series Security Appliances is powered by
Microsoft(r) Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004 (ISA 2004).
The NS6200 is a multi-function security platform designed for small
businesses and branch offices and supports up to 100 users. Small and
remote offices often rely on network-layer firewalls and desktop
anti-virus software to secure the enterprise. These environments are
increasingly the source of security problems because most network
firewalls lack the application inspection and content filtering
functionality that is vital to securing business infrastructure
applications. The NS6200 addresses this issue. Application layer
protection, advanced VPN and Web caching functionality make the NS6200
an effective security platform for protecting the small business from
sophisticated, blended threats.
The second of the new product releases, the NS6400, is intended for
enterprises with higher performance requirements and supports up to 1000
users. It is configured with four 10/100/1000 ports and two 10/100
copper Ethernet ports. As with other members of the NS Series family,
the NS6400 is designed to enable defense-in-depth and provides
unparalleled application-layer filtering for Microsoft applications.
Like their predecessor the NS6300, both the NS6200 and NS6400 Security
Appliances provide identical application-layer security for Microsoft
infrastructure applications and deliver the same ease-of-use features
for set up, deployment, software updates and maintenance. The Network
Engines Web Services (NEWS(TM)) interface is an integral part of all
members of the NS Series family, providing a centralized configuration
and management interface for both the appliance and its ISA engine.
Security administrators with an ISA background will find that the NEWS
interface easy is to use while enabling consistent management and
delivery of service throughout the network.
"The NS6200 Security Appliance is an easy to own solution that delivers
multiple levels of application layer defense in an affordable, highly
reliable appliance format," said Lee Benjamin, an advisor with
ExchangeGuy Consulting Services based in Boston. "It does a great job of
extending Exchange Server safely to the Internet. What could be more
perfect for the small-to-midsize business network?"
"The self-spreading nature of application-layer attacks mandates that
all organizations implement safeguards to protect applications
infrastructure," said Bryan Bain, senior director of security marketing
for Network Engines. "With the introduction of the NS6200 and NS6400,
defense-in-depth is now a viable option for organizations of any size."
"With these additions, the NS Series meets the application security
needs of organization of all sizes," said Jon Oltsik, senior analyst at
the Enterprise Strategy Group. "The NS Series is particularly well
suited for companies with significant investment in Microsoft
applications as it offers application-layer security that enhances the
protection of a Windows-based environment."
Pricing and Availability
Pricing for the NS6200 begins at $2495 and the NS6400 starts at $6995.
Both products will be available in March 2005. For more information,
email NSsales@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx or call 1-877-638-9323. The NS6200,
NS6300 and NS6400 are on display at the RSA Conference 2005, February
15-18 at booth #1125.
