SAN FRANCISCO -- iGateway EX SecureSME Software Platform Provides Complete Firewall, VPN Solution for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises; Intoto Booth #325 at the RSA 2005 Conference

Intoto, a leading provider of integrated security, wireless and voice software platforms to networking equipment manufacturers, today announced that its iGateway EX SecureSME software platform has been deployed by NETGEAR(R), a worldwide provider of technologically advanced, branded networking products, in the recently announced ProSafe(TM) VPN Firewall 200 (FVX538) and the ProSafe(TM) VPN Firewall 50 (FVS338) security routers for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). With Intoto's advanced iGateway EX SecureSME software, these NETGEAR ProSafe routers deliver comprehensive enterprise-class network security solutions to support main offices, remote sites and branch offices up to 250 users. Product displays will be showcased in Booth #325 at the RSA Conference.

"In targeting the SME market with business-class products, we needed a software solution that would allow us to successfully compete in a market with established vendors, but also one that allowed us to get to market quickly," said Kevin Allan, director of product management and marketing for business products at NETGEAR. "Intoto was able to supply us with a complete software solution that immediately put us at the leading edge of SME products. The iGateway platform provides the security and routing functionality that quickly enabled us to deliver an SME product that was superior to the incumbent products in this category."

NETGEAR's VPN firewall routers are feature-rich network security solutions that combine VPN, stateful packet inspection (SPI) firewall connectivity, quality of service (QoS), and SNMP for centralized management. The ProSafe VPN Firewall 200 (FVX538) can support up to 200 simultaneous VPN end-point tunnels and the ProSafe VPN Firewall 50 can support up to 50 VPN end-point tunnels. Both solutions also include 3DES and AES IPsec encryption, providing robust network protection for small-to-medium enterprises with remote sites.

"NETGEAR's iGateway implementation is a perfect example of how organizations that need to enter new markets quickly can use our turnkey software to immediately compete with established vendors," said Doug Makishima, vice president of marketing at Intoto. "The iGateway product set provides the latest firewall and security functionality in a package that quickly and easily integrates with an existing hardware platform."

Intoto plans to provide software upgrades to include optional anti-virus, anti-spam, anti-spyware policy enforcement, SSL VPN functionality and a robust intrusion prevention system, IntruPro(TM), for the ProSafe security product line.
