Nortel has introduced Nortel Application Switch with Symantec Intelligent Network Protection to ensure critical threats are identified and stopped before they can penetrate a company's network infrastructure and impact business.
Nortel said its Application Switch is designed to close the gap between discovery of a threat and deployment of a patch against critical network-based threats. The new solution is expected to be available to customers in June.
Symantec Intelligent Network Protection incorporates Symantec's network intrusion prevention technologies into Nortel's Application Switch and complements existing network intrusion prevention and detection systems on the network.
The Symantec technologies include an intelligent security inspection engine, automatic real-time threat protection updates and security content updates backed by Symantec.
Nortel customers can download the current security updates through Symantec LiveUpdate, which provide customers real-time protection against the latest threats. Threat prevention updates provide proactive protection during critical threat outbreaks and secure unpatched systems against vulnerabilities in operating systems and applications.
The Application Switch increases the availability, performance and security of applications by providing layer 4-7 inspection at layer 2 speeds.
