Intoto Inc. Demonstrates the First Network Processor Based Firewall and Announces iGateway npFastPath Solutions
Intoto extends its expertise in gateway security and convergence solutions to the Network Processor market to accelerate development of secure high-performance gateway equipment
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 24, 2001-- (Network Processor Conference) Intoto Inc., a leading provider of secure gateway software solutions to equipment manufacturers and processor vendors, today introduced the first network processor based firewall solution on Intel IXP1200 network processor platform. Intoto also announced the availability of high-performance npFastPath software solutions on network processors.
The npFastPath solutions offer increased performance, and flexibility for the network processor based gateway equipment. As a part of Intoto's iGateway(TM) software platform, these solutions provide comprehensive fully integrated security and convergence functionality. Equipment manufacturers leverage these solutions to accelerate product development, improve time-to-revenue, and deliver fully validated products.
``We are very pleased to announce the npFastPath solutions integrated with our iGateway platform to the NP market,'' said Sathyan Iyengar, President and CEO of Intoto. ``We will extend our expertise in delivering award-winning security and convergence solutions to high-performance network processor market.
