Sentriant™ Family of Network Security Appliances

The Sentriant family of security products provides organizations with cost-effective easy to deploy solutions to today’s tough network security challenges. These high-performance, highly scalable products verify that connecting devices are in compliance with security policy and detect and mitigate rapidly propagating network threats in seconds.

Additionally, because Extreme Networks products are based on an open network approach, customers are not locked into proprietary systems from a single vendor. The Sentriant platform integrates with, and ties products together from, a diverse set of vendors into a cohesive, easily managed solution.

• Virtualized Security Resources (VSRs)—the network participates in the overall security system by detecting events and enforcing policy, and creating virtualized resources to handle the security needs
• Cost Effective—VSRs allow network administrators to increase the reach of security coverage for the same cost as link-by-link protection using traditional inline resources
• High Availablity—since security appliances are not inline, a much higher level of availability can be designed into the network
• Extraordinary Performance—since the network shares the load, security products are freed up to do the tasks for which they are designed

Sentriant AG represents the next generation in endpoint security by verifying that endpoint devices meet security policy requirements. Sentriant AG tests each endpoint for the presence of worms, Trojans and spyware, then verifies that the endpoint device meets the organization's security requirements before allowing access to the network. Sentriant AG does not require an agent to be installed in the endpoint PCs or devices.

The Sentriant appliance secures the network interior against rapidly propagating threats such as virus or worm storms. Designed to protect the network from old or new virus or worm attacks, the Sentriant appliance can reduce threat mitigation time down to seconds. The Sentriant appliance is designed to complement existing perimeter and end-point security solutions.
