Provider of High Quality Embedded Software Fortifies its
Security Portfolio with Two New Authentication Products |
Fremont,
California, September 22, 2004 – TeamF1, Inc. the high-performance embedded networking and
security software company, announced today the immediate
availability of AuthAgent X.509
and AuthAgent RADIUS, the most recent additions to TeamF1's
increasing list of lean-footprint, pre-fabbed embedded
software products. AuthAgent RADIUS and AuthAgent X.509 are
two standards-based technology implementations that allow
embedded devices to be authenticated using enterprise-wide
databases and ensure the authorized use of key network
resources.
"These new components offer wider authentication choices to
our customers, and seamlessly integrate with our broad range
of security applications including our own
SSHield (SSH),
SSLimSecure (SSL) and
V-IPSecure (IPsec)," said Vinai Kolli,
Vice President of Engineering at TeamF1. "Both are designed
for low-footprint and high-performance embedded needs, with
special emphasis on hardware acceleration. They are built
using our stringent software engineering processes, and
offer developer-friendly APIs."
TeamF1's Growing AuthAgent Family
A client implementation of the popular Remote Authentication
Dial In User Service (RADIUS) standard, AuthAgent RADIUS
interacts with enterprise authentication databases to decide
whether the embedded device it is used in should grant
privileges or not. AuthAgent RADIUS provides a powerful yet
simple mechanism to secure everything from VPNs to wireless
networks when used in conjunction with protocols that secure
the network path.
AuthAgent X.509 is an embedded, modular authentication
framework based on X.509 digital certificates. It can be
used with diverse security technologies requiring
digital-certificate based authentication, such as SSL and
SSH for secure device management and IPsec for layer 3
security, as well as in custom applications including
consumer electronics devices, network and storage equipment.
Availability
AuthAgent RADIUS and AuthAgent
X.509 are immediately available for full source,
royalty-free licensing directly from TeamF1 or one of its
channel partners. They are supported on popular embedded
operating systems including VxWorks® and pSOSystem®.
