TMCNet: Ingate Introduces Enhanced Security Software Module

[March 26, 2008]

Ingate Introduces Enhanced Security Software Module

(Wireless News Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
Ingate Systems, which develops firewall technology and products that
enable SIP communications for the enterprise while maintaining control
and security at the network edge, has added another layer of security
for SIP-based applications with the Ingate Enhanced Security Module, a
new optional software offering for all Ingate Firewall and Ingate
SIParator products.

The company stated that the software features an Intrusion Detection
System/Intrusion Prevention System (IDS/IPS) for SIP, making it
possible to detect and protect against attacks based on the protocol.
IDS/IPS protects the network against attacks targeting SIP devices on
the LAN, such as SIP phones. Ingate Enhanced Security Module works in
addition to Ingate's existing security technologies, further
strengthening security for VoIP, SIP trunking and other SIP
applications.

"VoIP, SIP trunks and all realtime communications applications can be
used in a very secure manner if the right security technologies are
employed," said Olle Westerberg, chief executive officer, Ingate
Systems. "Ingate's Enhanced Security Software Module, used in
conjunction with the award-winning SIP proxy technology built into our
Ingate Firewalls and SIParators, delivers maximum protection for
enterprises using SIP-based realtime communications. There is no more
complete security solution on the market today."

In addition to IDS/IPS, Ingate Enhanced Security Module incorporates
the ability to encrypt all realtime communications which makes it
almost impossible for eavesdroppers to retrieve the original media or
signaling streams from the encrypted streams:

-- Support for Transport Layer Security (TLS) which encrypts the
signaling.

-- Support for Secure Realtime Transport Protocol (SRTP). SRTP provides
a high level of security for live data with advanced encryption,
confidentiality, message authentication and replay protection. When
combined with TLS, it further shields users from eavesdroppers, hackers
and spoofers.

The Enhanced Security module works hand-in-hand with Ingate's full SIP
proxy technology, which provides a level of control over the flow of
SIP traffic and the enterprise network. The company said that this
control offers tremendous advantages with regard to security.

Ingate Enhanced Security Software Module is available now for all
Ingate Firewalls and SIParators.
