Network Management of SELinux Made Easy –
Tresys Brickwall™ Enterprise Edition Beta Release Now Available

Columbia, Maryland–November 14, 2006 – Tresys Technology, a leader in network security technology and services, and a primary contributor to Security Enhanced Linux (SELinux), today released a beta version of its Tresys Brickwall™ Enterprise Edition for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). This is the third of three offerings in the Tresys Brickwall™ Security Suite of software that makes using and managing the power of SELinux easier. The Tresys Brickwall software allows administrators to configure fine-grained network access control for individual applications without having special knowledge of SELinux.

The Tresys Brickwall Enterprise Edition enables users to easily manage the most powerful security capabilities of SELinux across an entire enterprise. With Tresys Brickwall, applications and services are confined to the minimal required resources thereby limiting the scope of any exploits. Enterprise Edition allows administrators to remotely manage groups of systems across a network. Features include:

• Manage an unlimited number of remote clients from a central console.
• Group similar systems and manage a common configuration across the group.
• Monitor and log status on remote systems.
• Unmatched ability to configure network security controls for individual applications.
• Protection of additional services beyond those in the default RHEL 4 system.
• Ability to customize the security of protected services by specifying additional file access.
• First-ever capability to provide advanced security for your custom applications without SELinux expertise.

Tresys also released an updated beta of the Tresys Brickwall Professional Edition. The Professional Edition provides all of the full-featured configuration capabilities of the Enterprise Edition for a single system.
