PLANO, Texas & BELCAMP, Md. - (Business Wire) Interphase (NASDAQ: INPH), a leader in embedded networking and communications solutions, announces its partnership with SafeNet, a global leader in information security, to provide a pre-integrated, carrier-grade IPsec network security hardware and software solution for accelerated development of superior IP-based applications. The QuickSec™ 5.0 toolkit from SafeNet has been integrated with the Interphase iSPAN™ 36CA OCTEON™ Plus AdvancedMC Packet Processor and iSPAN 55CA Quad GE to PCI-x Packet Processor, both Cavium Networks OCTEON-based multicore packet processor cards. This integration easily saturates a 4GB IPsec network link with millions of tunnels implemented to address the need for the highest security performance in both AdvancedTCA® architecture and rack mount server network elements.
“As an industry leading security package, SafeNet will provide our customers with a high performance IPsec software toolkit optimized for the OCTEON architecture of our packet processors,” said Ian MacMillan, Senior Product Marketing Manager at Interphase. Customers will value this combined security solution for its ability to decrease their time to market and maximize throughput for applications such as:
- New generation of convergent broadband solutions based on 3G/4G technologies (LTE, ASN Gateways / WiMax, Femtocell, IMS)
- High-performance security appliances such as Wireless LAN Gateways, VPN Gateways, and Session Border Controllers
- Line-rate packet processing with content inspection (deep packet inspection) for solutions such as load balancers, routers, and gateways
“SafeNet continues to support our customers with this convenient and effective pre-integrated solution. The reliability and processing power of the Interphase OCTEON-based cards plus the easily integrated advanced security features of our QuickSec 5.0 enable network equipment vendors to efficiently add best-in-class security – faster, cheaper, and more secure than any in-house solutions,” stated Simon Blake-Wilson, Managing Director, Embedded Security Solutions at SafeNet.
Interphase and SafeNet are exhibiting together at the AdvancedTCA Summit, October 27-29, at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, California, Booth number 401.
