Enea Debuts Network Security Protocols for OSE ck DSP Real-Time OS


(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
Enea, a provider of network software and services, announced the
availability of IPsec and SSH network security protocols for DSPNet, a
compact, high-performance IPv4v6 stack optimized for the Enea OSE ck
real-time operating system.

The new protocols provide integrity verification, authentication, and
encryption services that facilitate secure data transmission, the
company said.

"The drive to reduce IP transport costs has made Ethernet the standard
interface for all DSPs used in communications infrastructure," said
Terry Pearson, vice president of marketing for Enea. "DSPNet provides a
secure, reliable, high-performance IP transport solution that enables
DSPs to perform network processing as well as real-time signal
processing. Together, OSE ck and DSPNet provide an out-of-the-box
platform that enables NEPs to get to market faster with compact,
high-performance, DSP-based communications equipment that offers
superior reliability, security, and flexibility at a reduced cost."

According to the company, IPsec provides confidentiality, data

integrity and authentication for packets sent over the Internet. IPsec
encrypts the IP data packets to hide its contents from unauthorized
viewing. It also authenticates the sender and checks the received data
for integrity. The SSH daemon (Secure Shell) provides a secure
alternative to Telnet for accessing the OSE ck shell, which is used to
execute commands on the DSP for management, configuration, status, and
debug purposes.
