NetClarity NACwall Micro Appliance to Debut at AMCC's Booth During INTEROP 2008
"Green" Low-heat, Low-energy, Small Footprint PowerPC Architecture Network Security Appliances Showcased at AMCC Booth# 458
Boston and Las Vegas (Issues Wire / PRWEB) April 28, 2008 -- NetClarity will showcase its new 'green' NACwall Micro appliance, which is designed to secure small offices, home offices and branch offices, at Interop 2008 in Las Vegas, from April 29 - May 1, 2008, at the AMCC Booth #458. These Network Access Control (NAC) appliances, powered by AMCC PowerPC embedded processors, 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. According to USCERT, 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.
"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," said Sam Fuller, Vice President of Marketing at AMCC. "We are excited to see our embedded processors helping to address NAC market challenges."
Because of NACwall's ability to work as a non-inline solution and without client-based technology, 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. By not requiring system-wide network upgrades of switches and routers, the installed cost of NACwalls on the network is typically ten to 20 times less than its competitors.
NetClarity's NACwall appliances are already being distributed in 35 countries through market leading information security channel partners throughout the globe.
"The AMCC powered NetClarity NACwall appliance running behind our firewall protects the last mile, the very edge of our corporate network and at the weakest link - the smallest, most remote office where mission critical laptops move between various network locations," said Frank Ferguson, President, Curriculum Associates, Inc., which recently deployed NetClarity NACwall protection.
NetClarity's patented NACwall appliances deploy in minutes behind any firewall or router without the need for agent or client software. It works with the rest of an existing networking and legacy infrastructure, eliminating the need for expensive upgrades.

Our NACwall solutions work quickly, in milliseconds, and in tandem with any network router or firewall to solve this challenging problem, stopping malicious insiders, rogue wireless, infected laptops and cybercriminals in the fastest, most cost effective way," said Cheryl Smith, Vice President of Business Development for NetClarity. "We're pleased to have this opportunity to leverage the amazing horsepower of the AMCC Power Architecture and be able to deploy such cost effective appliances that literally fit in the palm of your hand and within most any budget."
