Intellisoft Announces Snareworks™ for OS/390

Proven software provides secure tunneling and transparent encryption to mainframe applications

DECORUM Conference, New Orleans, Louisiana, March 15, 1999 - Continuing to demonstrate leadership in enabling security solutions for corporate enterprises, IntelliSoft today announced SnareWorks for OS/390. SnareWorks Tunnel for OS/390 will be the first available product in this line of security solutions. SnareWorks security products are used by leading corporations on multiple platforms to enable businesses to maximize information technology in a secure manner.

The SnareWorks Tunnel is well suited for customers that need network access to mission-critical data residing on the mainframe without compromising the integrity and privacy of that information. Due to its transparent design, the SnareWorks Tunnel enables companies to deploy it without disrupting or developing new code for existing mainframe applications. Working in concert with a SnareWorks Gateway, the mainframe can now participate in the distributed security framework the same way as other desktops and UNIX servers.

"The majority of the world's corporate data sits on mainframe computers. Unfortunately, many of today's advanced network security products only address distributed computing," said Jonathan Chinitz, President and Founder of IntelliSoft. "In extending SnareWorks to secure mainframe data, IntelliSoft is solving an urgent customer need -- to treat the mainframe as any other 'machine' in a distributed environment. SnareWorks for OS/390 is the first step in making the dual worlds of mainframe and distributed security become one."
