Network Chemistry Provides the Most Widely Used Wireless Threat Protection and Analysis Products in the World2 March 2006
Network Chemistry Inc., the wireless
security experts, announced today that it has secured more than 75 new
enterprise deployments since the beginning of the third quarter in July.
Albertsons, Loews, the New York State Police, the U.S. Department of
Energy, two Fortune 500 utilities, and hundreds of other name-brand
companies now trust Network Chemistry to automatically protect them against
wireless threats. In all, the company's wireless threat protection
solutions are used by over 300 organizations, including many of the world's
most successful enterprises and exacting government agencies and U.S.
military forces.
Network Chemistry also announced that its free tools have been downloaded
more than 250,000 times to date, making the company's products among the
most widely used in the wireless security or networking industries. The
company provides these tools because organizations have an immediate need
to better understand wireless threats, to protect themselves, and to comply
with regulations. The tools include BlueScanner™ for performing
Bluetooth vulnerability assessments and Packetyzer™ for wireless and
wired packet analysis. In addition, the company announced today that has
jumpstarted the industry's first vendor-neutral Wireless Security
Vulnerabilities and Exploits (WVE) database, to categorize all known
wireless threats and to apply standard nomenclature to the entries for
public use. (Editor's note: See today's release entitled "Industry's Only
Wireless Security Vulnerabilities and Exploits Database Launched to Help
Prevent Wireless Networking Attacks.")
"Wireless is now the top vector for unauthorized access to networks and
mobile laptops, and places organizations at significant risk if not
secured. We've always been the technical leader. Now our rapid customer
growth shows both the value that we provide our customers and our progress
in making wireless threat protection technology broadly available and easy
to implement," said Rob Markovich, president and CEO of Network Chemistry.
"We'll continue to innovate at a rapid pace, remain closely linked with the
technical community, and offer award-winning products that assure
enterprises they can protect their wireless data, networks, and users."
Network Chemistry offers the industry's only integrated platform for
automating wireless threat protection, covering organizations' assets both
inside and outside their facilities:
-- RFprotect™ Distributed, the company's flagship product, is a patent-
pending wireless intrusion detection and prevention (WIDP) system with a
two-tier system architecture -- a central security engine with the
industry's only purpose-build sensors -- that automates threat detection,
attack prevention, and 'no wireless' policy enforcement inside the
enterprise
-- RFprotect Endpoint is a laptop security product that ensures wireless
data privacy for mobile users, automating wireless security enforcement
outside the enterprise, transparently to the user (Editors note: See
today's release entitled "Network Chemistry Delivers Industry's First
Enterprise Product to Actively Enforce Wireless Security on Mobile Laptops
Anywhere.")
-- RFprotect Mobile is a portable analysis product for network designers
and security personnel to design, analyze, and secure wireless networks by
conducting site surveys and accelerating incident response
Network Chemistry's solutions enable a wide variety of organizations to
automate wireless threat protection in a manner that meets their specific
needs. The company works with leading retailers such as Albertsons to help
them secure their business transactions and customer data and meet
regulatory requirements. For example, retailers can automate compliance
reporting to help meet the Payment Card Industry (PCI) data security
requirements of the credit card industry. Network Chemistry also helps
federal and local government agencies such as the New York State Police
enforce 'no wireless' policies and secure critical network infrastructure
from risky user behavior and malicious attacks.
