The announcement by Network Magazine adds yet another mark of distinction in an already banner year for the secure VPN leader, which earlier won recognition from InfoWorld (Golden Guardian), Network Computing (Well Connected), and Data Communications (Hot Product of the Year).

[and a] unique approach to solving long-term problems."
"I am proud that Network Magazine has recognized PERMIT Enterprise with this award, but even without the awards we've won this year, I am proud of what TimeStep has accomplished," said Tim Hember, president and CEO, TimeStep. "Our people have developed the best VPN technology available on the market today. Period. No one else in the industry is able to deploy large-scale installations with the same level of performance and reliability."
