Enterasys Introduces Enterprise Security Solution
Enterasys (I’m not saying anything about the company name) has introduced Secure Open Convergence, a suite of security solutions for enterprise VoIP users. The technology employs the vendor’s Dragon and NAC applications as well as security rich interfaces for switching, routing, and wireless connectivity.
Dragon provides intrusion detection and a prevention system for H.323 and SIP networks. NAC assesses, authenticates, and authorizes user and device access on the network. When connected, role-based polices are enforced. NAC also supports e911 and CALEA.
In addition to the application security, embedded policy-based security features are on every interface and device on the enterprise network, protecting the network from denial of service, man in the middle and spoofing attacks.
Secure Open Convergence works with enterprise networks from 3Com, Alcatel, Avaya, Cisco, Mitel, NEC, Nortel, Panasonic, Polycom, Shoretel, and Siemens. Asterisk-based systems are also supported.
Beyond security, Enterasys provides VoWiFi (RoamAbout) and management (NetSight) solutions.
