CipherOptics Selects rPath's Technology to Build and Maintain Appliances.CipherOptics Streamlines Build and Delivery Process for Encryption The reversible transformation of data from the original (the plaintext) to a difficult-to-interpret format (the ciphertext) as a mechanism for protecting its confidentiality, integrity and sometimes its authenticity. Encryption uses an encryption algorithm and one or more encryption keys. Key Server Application RALEIGH, N.C. -- rPath today announced CipherOptics has selected rBuilder[R] and the rPath Appliance Platform[TM] to build and maintain its encryption key server application, Key Authority Point(TM). rBuilder is the first and only development platform that simplifies and automates the creation of hardware and virtual appliances An operating system and application designed for a virtual machine (VM) environment. The virtual appliance is packaged as a pre-installed system image for the particular hardware environment it is intended for, such as VMware, Xen or Microsoft's Virtual Server. . The rPath Appliance Platform technology gives CipherOptics complete appliance lifecycle management capabilities, from creation through deployment, configuration, management, and update. "rPath's technology enables us to control the entire build of the appliance and the flexibility to use only the components we need. With rBuilder, we can customize the delivery format of our application to suit our customers' choice of traditional server or virtualized infrastructure," stated Scott Palmquist, Senior Vice President of Product Management for CipherOptics. CipherOptics' network-wide encryption solutions help organizations protect their sensitive data, mitigate network security risks and help with regulatory compliance. The Key Authority Point(TM) is the encryption key distribution function of CipherEngine(TM), the company's innovative security policy and encryption key management solution. CipherEngine provides organizations with centralized control 1. In air defense, the control mode whereby a higher echelon makes direct target assignments to fire units. 2. In joint air operations, placing within one commander the responsibility and authority for planning, directing, and coordinating a military operation or group/category of of the generation and dynamic distribution of policies and keys for their entire network, without compromising application or network performance. Using rPath technology has simplified CipherOptics' software deployment Software deployment is all of the activities that make a software system available for use. The general deployment process consists of several interrelated activities with possible transitions between them. process and streamlined the process of getting updates into the field. "rPath technology enables CipherOptics to streamline the delivery of their innovative solutions to their customers. Whether a customer wants a hardware appliance A device that is dedicated to a specific function in contrast to a general-purpose computer. The hardware comes pre-installed with its operating system and application. Many consider the router to be the first network appliance. or a virtual appliance, CipherOptics can rely on rPath technology to create, deliver and maintain their Key Authority Point solution as an appliance that is easy to configure and maintain," said Billy Marshall, rPath Founder and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. . About CipherOptics CipherOptics is the leader in network-wide encryption. Offering an innovative policy and key management solution, coupled with high speed, low latency Low latency allows human-unnoticeable delays between an input being processed and the corresponding output providing real time characteristics. This can be especially important for internet connections utilizing services such as online gaming and VOIP - VOIP is not as important as encryption technology, CipherOptics helps their customers mitigate the risk of data leakage LEAKAGE. The waste which has taken place in liquids, by their escaping out of the casks or vessels in which they were kept. By the act of March 2, 1799, s. 59, 1 Story's L. U. S, 625, it is provided that there be an allowance of two per cent for leakage, on the quantity which shall appear , loss and theft over any network.

About rPath([R]) rBuilder and the rPath Lifecycle Management Platform automate the creation, configuration, management and maintenance of application images for virtualized and cloud computing (1) Running applications in or from network servers. Computing "in the cloud" may refer to a company's own network, but often refers to the Internet and the use of Web browser-based or rich client applications. environments. By producing application images that are optimized for any hypervisor, rPath frees the application from the underlying hardware, and enables a more efficient, lower cost model for development, deployment and support. rPath's end-to-end technology simplifies the entire range of lifecycle management activities for application images, while promoting scalability in response to dynamic demand. rPath is headquartered in Raleigh, NC.
