-- Industry Leading Hardware Offers Most Complete Security Features--
San Francisco California, Frankfurt Germany, New York - February 17, 2002 -NAVASTREAM Inc., a global leader in videoconferencing security and conferencing encryption, today announced its new managed security service for encryption of point-to-point and multipoint videoconferences. With the new managed security services, NAVASTREAM offers organizations protection for their intellectual property by ensuring secure transmission of audio, video and electronic data during a videoconference on public networks.
American-based NAVASTREAM offers customers high grade encryption in a managed security service, which is leased on a monthly basis. The managed service provides consistent security updates and scaled remote management features to fit each customer’s unique requirements.
“With NAVASTREAM’s new managed security service for videoconferencing, we are addressing an important issue for our customers. Companies know that all information is an asset to be protected, and the demand for security continues to increase," said Eric Goldberg, GM of NAVASTREAM. "Our new managed security service is a cost effective way for companies to equip themselves against security threats without a large capital outlay.”
Previously, a user needed to rely on proprietary videoconferencing security applications that come bundled with different codecs for secure videoconferencing. This type of packaged security application only works with point-to-point videoconferences, relies on weak software based encryption algorithms and requires the same videoconferencing systems on each end. NAVASTREAM’s hardware-based encryption, however, offers strong encryption algorithms with 128-bit DES3, RSA and AES, enables encrypted multipoint calls and operates with the full range of videoconferencing systems.
NAVASTREAM’s managed videoconferencing security service is built upon the proven foundation of the Navastream VIP product line. NAVASTREAM provides its customers with an encryption solution that is cost effective, reliable, and easy to use because it is totally transparent to the user.
