About the NodalCore platform
The rise in severity and scope of security threats has led securityappliances vendors to deploy multiple applications on their devicesincluding Antivirus, Antispam, Antispyware and IDS/IPS. But each addedapplication consumes more CPU and system resources, driving performancethrough the floor. The patent-pending algorithms developed by SensoryNetworks enable their customers to accelerate and combine multipleapplications at multi-gigabit speeds. The NodalCore product range nowincludes:
-- NodalCore SAA Connect, rated at up to 200 Mbps, available free of charge.-- NodalCore C-2000 MX, rated between 100 and 500 Mbps, starting at $499 in volume.-- NodalCore C-2000 Ultra, rated between 500Mbps and 2Gbps, for extreme performance demands. About Sensory Networks
