“WatchGuard Technologies…a leading provider of Internet
security solutions, today announced the availability of the
award-winning LiveSecurity System for the Linux market.”

“Since 1996, WatchGuard’s pioneering security appliance, the
WatchGuard Firebox, has operated with a Linux kernel specially
engineered for the demands of Internet security and VPN processes.
Easy to use security management software for Windows and Windows NT
operating environments made WatchGuard’s signature red Firebox a
widely known and emulated security solution.”

Now, with the introduction of security management software
for the Linux operating environment, WatchGuard’s Fireboxes and
LiveSecurity Service fit into the growing market of Linux
workstations and Linux-based business environments.
Red
Hat…developers of the award-winning open source Red Hat Linux
operating system, have been using WatchGuard Fireboxes to secure
its network since 1997.”
