IPKeys Technologies to Resell Trusted Computer Solutions' Automated Linux and Solaris Operating System Lock Down Tool

Trusted Computer Solutions (TCS), a leading developer of cross domain, operating system and network security solutions, today announced a partnership with IPKeys Technologies (IPKeys) to resell Security Blanket^®, TCS's award-winning, automated, operating system lock down tool. IPKeys provides secure computing and communications systems to the commercial, federal, state & local and utility sectors. To meet the needs of the highly regulated industries it services, IPKeys will offer Security Blanket to help their customers adhere to stringent compliance guidelines in an automated manner, saving time and improving operational efficiencies.

"Many of our customers require solutions that not only improve their overall security posture but must meet specific corporate or industry compliance guidelines in order to do business," said Kim McCaffrey, Executive Vice President of IPKeys Technologies LLC. "Security Blanket does just that by automating the lock down process to secure operating systems, which in turn, also saves our customers valuable time and money."

Security Blanket offers a cost-effective way to consistently an predictably secure an organization's systems in a fraction of the time that it takes to lock them down manually. The solution enables system administrators to configure and enhance the security level of operating systems including Red Hat (News - Alert)^® Enterprise Linux^® versions 4 and 5, CentOS versions 4 and 5, Solaris™ 10, Oracle^® Enterprise Linux 4 and 5, Novell (News - Alert)^® SUSE^® 11 and openSUSE^® 11, as well as Fedora™ 10, 11, 12 and 13. Security Blanket also supports Linux on IBM (News - Alert)^® System z^®.

"We are dedicated to identifying quality vendors such as IPKeys that can integrate Security Blanket into their existing portfolio of security offerings to ensure their customers operating systems are air tight," said Ed Hammersla, Chief Operating Officer, Trusted Computer Solutions. "What we have found is that many organizations are not locking down Linux and Solaris servers due to a lack of expertise and/or time to manually lock them down. Security Blanket is the only automated solution that solves this problem."
