Harness the Power of SELinux -
Tresys Brickwall™ Security Suite v1.1 Now Available
Powerful
Tool for Managing SELinux Gets Additional Features and Wider Platform
Support
Columbia,
Maryland–May 3, 2007 – Tresys Technology, a leader in
security technology innovation and services and a primary contributor
to Security Enhanced Linux (SELinux), today announced an updated
release of its Tresys BrickwallTM Security Suite
– the powerful enterprise solution that makes using and
managing SELinux easier and more effective.
SELinux, the best Linux security
technology available, provides a rich set of security functions but IT
administrators often lack the expertise needed to effectively configure
and leverage these capabilities. The Tresys Brickwall Security Suite
builds upon leading-edge open source technologies to provide unmatched
control over these powerful SELinux security functions —
without requiring special knowledge of the SELinux policy language.
Tresys Brickwall allows effective use of SELinux by any Linux
administrator without the need for extensive training or costly
consulting resources.
Tresys Brickwall Security Suite v1.1 adds:
-
Integration
with the upcoming release of Tresys Razor™ for
IBM’s WebSphere and DB2 enterprise applications
-
Additional
protection for more applications, including Radius, Kerberos, Jabber,
openLDAP, and OpenVPN. Over
thirty applications and services are now supported.
-
Support for RHEL4, RHEL5 and Fedora Core 6 on 32-bit
and 64-bit X86 and IBM Power Series platforms.
-
Free
demonstration versions are available.
The Tresys Brickwall Security Suite includes
three editions – Standard, Professional, and Enterprise – to meet varying levels of
end-user needs. With Tresys Brickwall, administrators now have
unmatched ability to configure, customize, and extend the security
controls provided by SELinux. With the Enterprise
edition, which includes the first-ever network management console for
SELinux, administrators can apply enhanced security across an entire
enterprise, allowing administrators to configure SELinux for groups of
systems, and apply and monitor this security remotely. Key features of
the suite include the ability to define network access settings for
individual programs, built-in protection for many applications and
services, customization of network and file protection settings, and
the ability to create custom policy targets for new applications.
