Lancope Joins Trusted Computing Group to Support Trusted Network Connect Initiative.

Leading NBA Solution Provider Helps Accelerate Open Standards for Network Access Security and Integrity

ATLANTA -- Lancope, Inc., the provider of StealthWatch, the most widely used network behavior analysis (NBA) and response system, today announced that it has joined the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) and will participate in its Trusted Network Connect (TNC) work group. Members of the non-profit group develop open industry specifications that ensure secure interoperability across multi-vendor network security solutions. By supporting TNC specifications in its StealthWatch System, Lancope is enhancing the industry's leading NBA solution by delivering robust post-admission security, mitigation and auditing capabilities that complement pre-admission controls inherent in the TNC architecture.

StealthWatch is the only flow-based, enterprise solution to combine powerful network performance monitoring with behavior-based anomaly detection to deliver total network visibility, ensuring network security, performance and availability. Leveraging the existing network infrastructure, StealthWatch streamlines security and network operations, reduces time and resources required and eliminates cost and complexity associated with non-integrated point solutions

"More and more organizations are demanding secured network access throughout the enterprise," said Harland LaVigne, president and CEO of Lancope. "By participating in TCG to establish an industry-standard approach, we extending interoperability with other leading network infrastructure providers and giving enterprise customers the flexibility and choice they increasingly require."

"We welcome the expertise and support of Lancope in TCG and anticipate that their participation, with that of other TCG members, will extend the development and deployment of the TNC architecture," noted Brian Berger, TCG marketing work group chairman.

Initial TNC specifications were first introduced by TCG in May 2005 and several TCG members now support these specifications in their products. A substantial number of TCG's 160 members, including Juniper, Intel Corporation, Microsoft, HP ProCurve, IBM and Symantec, have joined the work group to support and implement the TNC architecture. Reliable security standards developed through industry groups like TNC can drive innovation, reduce cost of implementation, and enhance security.
