St. Bernard Launches Family of Powerful Hybrid-Ready Appliances
Market Wire, February, 2008
St. Bernard Software, Inc. (OTCBB: SBSW), a global provider of security appliances and on-demand solutions, including secure content management and archiving, today announced the availability of its powerful new h-Series hardware. Designed to meet the needs of enterprises of all sizes, the iPrism 10h, 20h, 30h, 50h and 100h appliance models can effortlessly handle demanding features such as anti-virus software.
Because of their high performance, the h-Series appliances future-proof customers as they add more secure content management solutions, with room to grow to meet their forthcoming needs. St. Bernard's Hybrid product strategy consists of integrating on-premises appliances and on-demand services into a security offering that best meets the needs of a given IT environment.
St. Bernard's new appliances enable IT administrators to protect their networks from security, regulatory, productivity and network-performance risks associated with inappropriate use of Web, IM and P2P applications in the workplace. Simple to configure, the products feature easier administration and reduce time spent on maintenance.
"It took me less than 30 minutes to install the hardware, learn about its management and configuration and have it fully set-up and running on my network," said Brad Slavin, VP of network engineering and operations at Skyriver, a converged communications service provider. "This enterprise-grade appliance provides me with at least three times higher performance over my existing solution. The product's scalability ensures we will never need to replace it with another product as we grow our business and client base."
"We asked our customers for input on their IT security pain points," said Andrew Lochart, VP of marketing and product management at St. Bernard. "An overwhelming number indicated that the use of HTTP, IM and P2P on their networks is increasing. Our h-Series hardware not only provides them with a secure solution that sits behind corporate firewalls, but also enables them to meet their future security needs by seamlessly integrating additional features into the existing appliance."
Each h-Series model uses the iPrism optimized operating system for security, interoperability and performance. Customers who purchase or upgrade to the h-Series models will be able to upgrade to the iPrism 6.0 software, launching in Q1 2008, at no extra charge.
Starting at $1,200, the h-Series appliances are available immediately. For more information about the products, please visit http://stbernard.com/products/iprism/model_specifications .
