Santa Clara, CA – November 13, 2009 – O2 Security, Inc., a key supplier of innovative security appliances and software, today announced that it received a patent for its integrated Virtual Private Network/Firewall appliance. Developed in-house, the technology is already embedded in the company’s SifoWorks offering, and permits high rates of data flow between trusted and untrusted networks without compromising an organization’s security. “We strongly believe that now is a great time to innovate and stay on the cutting edge of technology, and we’re proud to take a leadership role in this regard,” said Max Huang, CEO of O2Security. “Our reasons are simple; security threats are continually evolving regardless of the current economic situation, and companies can’t afford to let their guard down. It’s our job to make sure they can cost-effectively preserve and protect their networks and the data that it contains.” The patent, officially listed as US07596806 – VPN and Firewall Integrated System, was awarded in September and notes several key technology attributes, including: - Enabling security firewall protection/VPN capabilities across a company’s WAN and LAN simultaneously without the need for additional tools or systems.
- The ability to interface between one trusted and one untrusted network simultaneously to provide access control and data exchange seamlessly without compromising security.
- The capability to control bandwidth by every individual policy.
The SifoWorks system can also be managed via multiple methods including Web and SNMP. It’s multi-lingual and user-friendly administrative interface greatly reduces the system’s learning curve and administrators’ workload. Effective real time monitoring capabilities allow administrators to ensure that the network is operating normally all day.
