InfoExpress Welcomes Microsoft-Cisco Security Collaboration
Industry Standards Will Facilitate Endpoint Security Enforcement

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, OCTOBER 21, 2004 — InfoExpress, the leader in policy and configuration enforcement solutions, today welcomed the collaborative effort between Microsoft Corp. and Cisco Systems, Inc. to ensure machines connecting to a network are compliant with enterprise security policies before being granted access. The InfoExpress CyberGatekeeper® family of policy enforcement solutions provides this protection today, and InfoExpress is actively partnering with others to give businesses greater flexibility, control and protection for their networks through integrated policy enforcement solutions for centrally managing security and vulnerabilities.

"InfoExpress supports the cooperation between Cisco and Microsoft because it helps standardize interfaces for policy enforcement solutions," said Stacey Lum, CEO of InfoExpress. "A uniform interface, de facto or standards-based, will benefit our customers by reducing the number of interfaces required to deploy this critical technology and improving interoperability among products."

CyberGatekeeper hardens existing networks by giving access only to compliant systems while keeping potentially dangerous systems out. CyberGatekeeper ensures that all network endpoints are fully scanned and audited against the enterprise security policy. Non-compliant systems are automatically quarantined until remediation brings them into compliance. Unlike endpoint enforcement solutions, CyberGatekeeper restricts access for all non-compliant systems, even those without the agent or client software installed.

The CyberGatekeeper family consists of CyberGatekeeper LAN and CyberGatekeeper Remote. CyberGatekeeper Remote enforces security policy on all computers attempting to make remote access connections, whether they are using VPN technology or traditional dial-up access, while CyberGatekeeper LAN monitors switches for newly activated ports.
