SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwire - July 22, 2008) - SkyRecon® Systems (www.skyrecon.com), the
premier provider of integrated, proactive endpoint security solutions,
today announced that its StormShield® v5.01 has been OESISOK certified.
OESISOK certification ensures that StormShield will interoperate seamlessly
with products powered by the OESIS Framework, an open development framework
that provides an industry standard for endpoint security application
integration. When a security application is designated OESISOK, it is
considered to be compatible with many network connectivity and other system
health verification solutions.
In a growing number of market verticals designed to help businesses secure
their operating environment -- including markets such as Remote Access,
Network Access Control, and Compliance -- technology vendors seek to
integrate their applications with endpoint security solutions such as
StormShield.
"As the endpoint has become the weakest link in security, endpoint
protection solutions have become a priority for organizations looking to
protect their sensitive data and critical business systems. In this
context, StormShield seamlessly interoperates with Network Access Control
and SSL VPN solutions to provide secure, yet functional, end-to-end network
and endpoint security and compliance solutions," says Philippe Honigman,
President and COO, SkyRecon Systems. OESISOK is an important program that
certifies StormShield interoperability with products from market-leading
technology vendors such as Juniper Networks, Cisco Systems, SonicWALL and
many others.
A recent TechWorld Awards finalist for Endpoint Security Product of
the Year, StormShield offers integrated system and data protection in a
single product. Relying on behaviors rather than signatures or heuristics
-- approaches that are becoming more and more antiquated -- StormShield
protects data where it is most at risk: on the endpoints. StormShield
provides integrated device
control, data
encryption, application
control, host-based intrusion
prevention (HIPS), system
firewall, wireless security,
and network access control (NAC). Its proactive security agent
also provides zero-day protection without the need for signature or rule
updates -- all of this using only a few megabytes of memory, a fraction of
the size of competing products in the market.
"We are pleased to have an innovator like SkyRecon Systems complete their
OESISOK certification. End-users want IT security solutions that are tested
and verified as interoperable," said Benny Czarny, president and CEO of
OPSWAT, Inc. "The OESISOK certification program eliminates the guesswork
for end-users by ensuring that every endpoint security layer within
SkyRecon's StormShield Security Suite is interoperable with other
market-leading security applications."
