AdminForce Remote Introduces APW-1, the AdminForce Powerwall®
Boulder, CO -- March 29, 2001 -- AdminForce Remote LLC today announced
the introduction of a new security product which will be marketed as, the
AdminForce Powerwall® or APW-1.
APW-1 includes a unique automated intrusion report capability. The
Intrusion Attempt Report is automatically forwarded to the client and the
AdminForce Remote Monitoring Center. APW-1 includes a full set of
firewall control facilities such as packet blocking rules, private IP
address masquerading, port redirection, etc. APW-1 also includes service
proxies for ftp, web, DNS, CUSeeMe, and more.
Charles Fleming, CEO of AdminForce Remote said "network security will now
present a new level of difficulty for intruders on networks that have
APW-1 installed." He further said that this product "adds an element of
offense to the security issue. Until now, Firewalls have been the modern
equivalent of the medieval castle with a defensive siege structure, but
firewalls do not have the ability to pour hot oil on attempted
plunderers. The modern attackers are hidden behind a maze of network
complexity."
Quick and automated detection is part of the AdminForce Powerwall®. The
intrusion is blocked and then followed by an automated report to the
client. An AdminForce rapid response element is prepared to react to
identify the source and follow up with notification of the appropriate
Law Enforcement Computer Crime Unit if the client desires this follow up.
The AdminForce Powerwall® is Linux-based and can include content
filtering and automated reporting, if this is a client requirement. The
genesis of the product was designed by LinuxForce, the development
affiliate of AdminForce Remote, to meet the needs of large enterprise
clients. The product is being brought to market at a price level that
will make it available to businesses that previously could not afford
this sophisticated level of network protection.
