“The US Federal Government is the largest purchaser of IT in the world,” said Jet Defensor, director of Federal Sales and Business Development for Lancope. “Network integrity is a primary and critical concern for our government customers. With StealthWatch™ customers can defeat zero-day attacks as well as identify network exposures before they become incidents. This is paramount to ensuring the safety of our nation’s critical infrastructure.”
According to Mark Moeller, director of the Partner Program for Lancope, “These strategic partnerships combined with our joint R&D efforts with the National Security Agency highlight Lancope’s firm commitment to developing innovative security solutions for large, complex networks. StealthWatch is ideally suited for the Government market, which is acutely focused on IT security and protecting some of the most sophisticated networks in existence.”
Moeller added, “By aligning strategically with these partners, Lancope makes it easier for Federal, state and local government buyers to access the StealthWatch system. Furthermore, these partners will give us additional momentum in penetrating the government market. They also well position us to capitalize on existing StealthWatch system deployments at numerous federal defense and civilian agencies as well as state and local governments.”
The StealthWatch system, which includes StealthWatch, StealthWatch+Therminator™ and StealthWatch Management Console™, provides enhanced network and host level security as well as powerful visualization of network activity in order to optimize security and network operations. Enabled by its patent-pending flow-based architecture, StealthWatch defeats zero-day attacks without signatures, exposes unauthorized applications and misconfigured network devices, monitors network performance and delivers insightful forensic analysis.
