NetScreen Secure Meeting Series Named to SearchNetworking.com 2003 Products of
the Year List
SUNNYVALE, Calif., March 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NetScreen Technologies,
Inc. today announced that TechTarget's SearchNetworking.com has named
NetScreen's Secure Meeting appliance as one of the Enterprise VPN Products of
the Year. NetScreen was selected for its novel application of Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) VPN concepts to online collaboration and Web conferencing.
The NetScreen Secure Meeting appliances enable organizations to provision
cross-enterprise online meetings and user-to-user collaboration without using
expensive hosted services or software-based extranets. The awards were
presented by the editors of TechTarget's SearchNetworking.com earlier this year
and the list of winners can be found online at
http://searchnetworking.techtarget.com/productsOfTheYearCategory/0,294802,sid7
_tax295581,00.html .
According to SearchNetworking.com, "Judges were impressed by the NetScreen-SM
Series' ease of integration, noting its plug-and-play nature. Through its
clientless approach, an end-user would simply launch a Web browser with an
Internet connection, navigate to a secure URL that is defined by a network
administrator and sign on to participate in an online meeting session. The
ability to enforce high levels of security was also important to our judges.
Unlike outsourced solutions and most custom deployments, the NetScreen-SM Series
enables network security professionals to take control ofonline meetings and
enforce group- or meeting-based authentication, authorization and auditing
policies, guarding against suspicious activity."
"We are pleased that TechTarget recognized the NetScreen-SM Series, our new and
unique SSL VPN-based appliance approach to online meeting collaboration," said
Jason Matlof, vice president of marketing for NetScreen's secure access
products. "Secure Meeting can deliver instant, secure online meeting
functionality on a hardened, audited, enterprise-ready platform. By moving to
an instantly deployable infrastructure appliance, enterprises can increase
security with strong authentication, granular access controls and detailed audit
logs while alleviating expensive reoccurring subscription fees."
The awards were presented by a panel of industry experts, including the editors
of TechTarget's SearchNetworking.com, a select group of users and independent
industry analysts with input from SearchNetworking.com members. Judges selected
the "Products of the Year"according to innovation, performance, ease of
integration into existing environments, ease of use and manageability,
functionality and value. The products must have been announced and shipped
between Sept. 30, 2002 and Oct. 1, 2003.
