Intellitactics Joins Forces with Tadpole to Offer Solid SPARC Platform for its Enterprise Security Management Software Solution.Business & Technology Editors KITCHENER, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 26, 2002 Intellitactics, a leader in enterprise security management software, today announced that it has joined forces with Tadpole tadpole, larval, aquatic stage of any of the amphibian animals. After hatching from the egg, the tadpole, sometimes called a polliwog, is gill-breathing and legless and propels itself by means of a tail. , a best-of-breed developer of specialized high-quality SPARC (Scalable Performance ARChitecture) A family of RISC CPUs from Sun that runs mostly under Sun's Solaris, but also under Linux and BSD operating systems. After development began in the mid-1980s by David Patterson of the University of California at Berkeley and Bill solutions for the corporate marketplace. According to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. Brent Davidson, Intellitactics' Director of Strategic Development, the partnership will give Intellitactics' customers the option of installing its Network Security Manager (TM) (NSM (Network and System Management) Running and controlling the networks and computer systems in an enterprise. See network management. (TM)) software on a high quality SPARC platform in addition to the current Microsoft and Solaris solutions the company already supports. "This new relationship will allow Intellitactics to better serve the vast array of organizations that are interested in Intellitactics' enterprise security management software," says Davidson.
