Vyatta the leader in software-based networking for enterprise and service provider virtual and cloud environments, has been named “Virtualization Security” Product of the Year by the editors of SearchServerVirtualization.com and TechTarget Inc.’s Data Center and Virtualization Media Group. Vyatta was selected based on six criteria: ease of integration, functionality, innovation, manageability, performance and value.
“Being named a ‘Virtualization Security’ Product of the Year not only reinforces Vyatta’s leadership within the virtualized networking space, but demonstrates that virtual security solutions are gaining rapid adoption,” said Kelly Herrell, CEO of Vyatta. “With server virtualization reaching its tipping point in 2011, we can expect explosive adoption of virtual security in 2012 as networks modernize to adapt to these new IT architectures.”
SearchServerVirtualization.com’s editors pointed out that Vyatta is more than just a security solution, noting that the Vyatta Network OS “can serve as a router, VPN concentrator or endpoint, and it helps bridge the transport-encryption gap between the office and the cloud.”
“Vyatta’s Network OS speeds the deployment and ROI of virtualized architectures through simplicity of deployment and unmatched feature breadth,” said Herrell. “With Vyatta, enterprise businesses and data centers simplify the migration of applications to virtual and cloud environments while addressing the CIO’s number one concern: security.”
