OPSWAT Announces Technical Partnership with Information Security Corporation (ISC)

ISC works with OPSWAT to enable detection, assessment and management of ISC SpyProof!® data protection application.

SD West 2007, Santa Clara, CA (PRWEB) March 22, 2007 -- OPSWAT (www.opswat.com) today announced a partnership, whereby ISC (www.infoseccorp.com) will provide OPSWAT with APIs and related R&D support for SpyProof! The partnership will enable OPSWAT to extensively support SpyProof! in OESIS™ Local.

OESIS Local is an open framework for developing products that detect, assess, manage and remediate security features of antivirus, antispyware, personal firewall, antiphishing, hard disk encryption, peripheral protection, browser and health agent applications running on Windows, Mac OS and Linux operating systems.

OESIS Local supports integration with hundreds of applications from 50 application vendors, including Microsoft, Google, Symantec, McAfee, Trend Micro, Ebay, SOPHOS, F-Secure, IBM Internet Services, Check Point, Mozilla Foundation and ISC. Customers using OESIS Local have distributed products to over 10 million endpoints. OPSWAT customers include Cisco Systems, Juniper Networks, F5 Networks, Aventail, Symantec, Trend Micro and SOPHOS.

"OPSWAT's philosophy is that network security vendors and their customers need to centrally manage and enforce security policies of endpoints," said Benny Czarny, CEO of OPSWAT. "OPSWAT therefore designs solutions to provide insight into the security state of each endpoint using data provided by the security-related features of applications installed on these same endpoints."

"Providing fully encrypted disk partitions, our SpyProof! product can play a central role in the protection of data on an organization's desktop and laptop systems," said Tom Venn, ISC's President. "ISC has partnered with OPSWAT to ensure that the deployment of SpyProof! to endpoints within a large enterprise can be centrally managed and maintained," Venn added.

"Being an ISC partner enables OESIS Local support for key properties and operations of SpyProof!," said Tom Mullen, Director of Business Development at OPSWAT. "Because of this partnership, our customer products embedding OESIS Local have enhanced capability to support end-user organizations standardized on SpyProof!"
