Steelcape Gateway(tm) 2.0 Security Software Debuts at RSA Conference 2007; Hackers Can't Get Into Your Network Without an Open Port.New TCP/IP TCP/IP in full Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol Standard Internet communications protocols that allow digital computers to communicate over long distances. Security Software Closes Open Ports on Firewalls, Optimizes Bandwidth on TCP/IP Networks LOS ANGELES Los Angeles (lôs ăn`jələs, lŏs, ăn`jəlēz'), city (1990 pop. 3,485,398), seat of Los Angeles co., S Calif.; inc. 1850. & SAN FRANCISCO San Francisco (săn frănsĭs`kō), city (1990 pop. 723,959), coextensive with San Francisco co., W Calif., on the tip of a peninsula between the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, which are connected by the strait known as the Golden -- Steelcape, Inc., a new provider of next-generation network protocol technology that augments security in TCP/IP environments, today launched Steelcape Gateway(tm) 2.0, a software security solution that closes open ports in a TCP/IP-based network to provide unhackable security for network users. In addition, by closing open ports in the firewall, Steelcape Gateway(tm) software bolsters the TCP/IP bandwidth to speed the deliver of content-critical data over the Internet. The primary enhancement in V 2.0 is the addition of the Steelcape Enterprise Server(tm)which facilitates the management of the Steelcape Gateway(tm)s and adds the ability to segregate seg·re·gate v. seg·re·gat·ed, seg·re·gat·ing, seg·re·gates v.tr. 1. To separate or isolate from others or from a main body or group. See Synonyms at isolate. 2. the Steelcape network into Zones for increased data security. Steelcape Gateway(tm) doesn't open ports in a TCP/IP-based network that are vulnerable to hacking opportunities and minimizes bandwidth requirements Bandwidth requirements (communications) The channel bandwidths needed to transmit various types of signals, using various processing schemes. Every signal observed in practice can be expressed as a sum (discrete or over a frequency continuum) of sinusoidal for sending digital content. Steelcape will offer more information on this new product at the RSA Conference 2007 in San Francisco. Steelcape is based in the Initiative for Open Authentication Initiative for Open Authentication (OATH) is an industry-wide collaboration to develop an open reference architecture using open standards to promote the adoption of strong authentication.

"To keep hackers out of your network, you need to close the doors that allow them in," said Joseph Cohen cohen or kohen (Hebrew: “priest”) Jewish priest descended from Zadok (a descendant of Aaron), priest at the First Temple of Jerusalem. The biblical priesthood was hereditary and male. , president 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. , Steelcape, Inc. "We close all open ports on the firewall making it virtually impossible for a hacker to break into the network through TCP/IP. The Steelcape Gateway is an effective alternative to more tradition VPNs, VLANS and SSL-VPNs. Steelcape's Gateway(tm) Security software uses a unique protocol that effectively coexists with TCP/IP to provide a new approach in network and content security. Steelcape's Gateway(tm) is a software-based agent solution or can be deployed as a external hardware appliance that facilitates secure communication between computers without requiring server interaction. Steelcape Gateway(tm) can be deployed in a multi-platform environment with scalability tested to as many as 20,000 nodes and supports popular operating systems including Microsoft Windows, IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) , Sun, HP, Linux, Java, Novell and Apple. Version 2.0 of Steelcape Gateway(tm) eliminates the TCP/UDP TCP/UDP Transmission Control Protocol/User Datagram Protocol transport layer and can lower CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. cycles by 32 percent. By altering IP packets, Steelcape Gateway(tm) enables these packets to pass through firewalls unchallenged and unchanged. This represents a completely new approach to transactional security that rejects complex encryption methods and the need to open ports on the network. Steelcape Gateway(tm) software enables data transfers from host to host without opening firewalls or relying on central server administration. This reduces all security risks, decentralizes the enterprise architecture, reduces bandwidth requirements, and dramatically lowers the cost of security. Steelcape is 100% compatible with TCP/IP and existing users are not affected.
