SSH Communications Solutions Lower Cost, Ease Deployment Of Securing Data

  • Apr 07, 2008

SSH Communications Security Corp. recently announced the general availability of SSH Tectia Client 6.0, SSH Tectia Server 6.0, SSH Tectia Manager 6.0 and the new SSH Tectia ConnectSecure 6.0.

The company will showcase the products at Booth 1535 during GovSec, U.S. Law and Ready.

Enterprises and government agencies are faced with increasing pressure from regulations such as PCI DSS and SOX, as well as internal and external audits to secure their mission-critical data. SSH Tectia 6.0 is an ideal solution for organizations that need to secure their file transfers and data-in-transit to help achieve regulatory compliance and meet government mandates with minimal resource overhead.

Leveraging SSH's in-depth experience with major network security deployments and the pervasive Secure Shell protocol itself, SSH Tectia ConnectSecure 6.0 works with any commercial SSH or openSSH server product, thereby significantly expanding the range of enterprises, financial institutions, major retailers, and government agencies that can easily leverage the new cost-saving features. SSH Tectia ConnectSecure includes automatic and transparent FTP to SFTP conversion, Transparent FTP Tunneling, and Transparent TCP Tunneling modules, which enable organizations to secure their business-critical data without modifications to their existing network infrastructure or applications. SSH Tectia ConnectSecure also includes key features to ease migration and is available on Unix, Linux and Windows platforms.

SSH Tectia Client, Server and ConnectSecure, combined with SSH Tectia Manager, enable IT departments to replace unsecure protocols with proven secure file transfer and data-in-transit protocols in hours or days, rather than weeks or months.

SSH Tectia Manager 6.0 can centrally deploy, configure, update, and audit the SSH Tectia environment from a central location, providing a cost-effective solution for large enterprises by drastically reducing the cost to upgrade, patch, and change security policies and by easing the auditing burdens placed on IT resources.

“SSH's focus over the last years has been on providing secure file transfer and data-in-transit solutions for companies and government agencies with large heterogeneous networks”, said Arto Vainio, CEO of SSH Communications Security. “These organizations have rigorous security requirements and need to comply with regulations such as PCI DSS and SOX. The enhancements in SSH Tectia 6.0 including the new SSH Tectia ConnectSecure provide major enhancements to address the increasing need for cost-effective security solutions for these complex and demanding environments, as well as significantly helping our broad installed base of existing SSH Tectia customers to smoothly grow their environments.”

With the new release of SSH Tectia 6.0, enterprises can implement high-performance secure automated file transfer, secure application connectivity and secure system administration throughout heterogeneous networks comprising Windows, Unix, Linux, and IBM mainframe systems. SSH Tectia can be centrally managed with SSH Tectia Manager enabling IT teams to deploy security policies faster and to swiftly respond to security attacks, helping enterprises to reduce the total cost of ownership and to ensure regulatory compliance.
