Here's a bit of good press for CYBG.
CYBERGUARD'S KNIGHTSTAR APPLIANCE FIREWALL NAMED
A "PICK OF 2000" BY SC MAGAZINE
Ft. Lauderdale, Florida - December 11, 2000 - CyberGuard Corporation, the technology leader in network security, today announced that its KnightSTAR premium appliance firewall has been named a "Pick of 2000" by SC Magazine, a magazine devoted entirely to computer security. KnightSTAR received a five-star rating in the magazine's December 2000 issue, which includes the prestigious "Buyer's Bible 2001." KnightSTAR is among the select IT security products listed in the guide, featuring the "best of the best" security products reviewed by the SC labs throughout the year.
CyberGuard currently has the only premium firewall appliances on the market that combine one of the highest levels of security possible with the processing speed needed by large data centers.
The magazine singled out CyberGuard's KnightSTAR, introduced in January 2000, as "one of the most feature-rich firewalls we have tested, and with excellent reporting and logging capabilities." Also noted were the product's simple installation, excellent administrator interface and good documentation.
"Being recognized as a 'Pick of 2000' validates CyberGuard's leadership position in enterprise network security technology," said David Proctor, CEO of CyberGuard. "This prestigious award confirms what our customers have long known: that our products provide the highest level of performance combined with uncompromising security standards. In fact, the success of the KnightSTAR product led directly to the development of two other firewall appliances for larger and smaller sized networks: STARLord and FireSTAR."
The CyberGuard® Firewall for Windows NT - a software product pre-dating the company's shift to a focus on appliances - received the Pick of 1999 Award from SC Magazine.
Designed for mid-sized corporations and institutions, the KnightSTAR premium appliance firewall is the pre-staged option of the standard CyberGuard Firewall for Unixware Release 4.3 product. It is a fully integrated, high-density and ready -to-operate firewall that includes browser-based central and remote management features.
