BW: LinuxSolve, Inc. Debuts Industry’s First “Immunized” Secure Server Appliances Running on Linux

“LinuxSolve, Inc., the Santa Clara-based developer and
integrator of pre-packaged turnkey security solutions for
e-business, will be showing its line of “immunized” secure server
appliances this week at Networld + Interop 2000 in Las Vegas,
Nevada. The secure server appliances run on the unique LinuxSolve
SecureWorks server platform, a hardened version of the Red Hat
Linux operating system containing several security enhancements
over all other Linux distributions commercially available today.
LinuxSolve will be showing the LinuxSolve WebSolve, InterSolve, and
SpeedSolve(TM) Secure Servers from May 9 through May 12 at the Las
Vegas Convention Center in booth 1979, which belongs to their
business partner, WireX Communications.”

“The SecureWorks server platform is based on Immunix, a family
of products and technologies developed by WireX Communications,
Inc. in Portland, Oregon. Immunix facilitates web-based delivery of
built-to-order, highly secure Linux operating systems for server
appliances. The components of the operating system have been
recompiled to protect against stack-smashing attacks, one of the
most common forms of security breaches. In addition, the operating
system prevents unauthorized access to any restricted system
resources.”

“WireX and LinuxSolve are taking the powers of Linux to the next
level,” explains Frank Rego, Director of Business Development at
WireX. “Servers that run on the SecureWorks platform, which is
powered by Immunix, will help prevent many of the kinds of security
breaches that we have been reading about lately in the news.”
Rego also says that LinuxSolve is the first company in the industry
to offer the “immunized” Linux operating system as part of a
turnkey security package to the business and ISP market.”
