“E-security vendor Axent Technologies today unveiled a
partnership with Cobalt Networks under which the companies will
produce a Linux firewall and virtual private network appliance for
small to midsize companies, branch offices, and service
providers.”

The product will be based on Axent’s Raptor and PowerVPN
software and Cobalt’s RaQ 3 server appliance.
Company
executives say the appliance will provide users with a low-cost
enterprise-class solution without the hassles usually associated
with installation, configuration, and maintenance of traditional
firewall products.”
