SonicWALL (NASDAQ:SNWL), a leading secure network infrastructure company will showcase the newly launched Project SuperMassive - the industry’s first next-generation security platform and technology at the Middle East Communications (MECOM) Exhibition 2010. The event commences from May 17th – 19th, 2010 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre, Abu Dhabi.
The SuperMassive technology comprises key next-generation elements of SonicWALL such as the Network Security Platform architecture, Firewall technology and the Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection (RF-DPI) engine. It features a large scale multi-core, Cavium Networks’ (NASDAQ: CAVM) OCTEON®-based architecture, running on SonicWALL’s multi-blade chassis. Project SuperMassive is capable of detecting and controlling applications, preventing intrusions, and blocking malware at up to 40 Gbps without introducing latency to the network.
“MECOM serves as an ideal event to showcase Project SuperMassive and our suite of virtualization products. The technology revolutionizes application visualization and control. Our new suite of products support the positive growth expected this year. For 2009, SonicWALL recorded a 35 percent growth,” said Florian Malecki, Enterprise Products Marketing Manager – EMEA, SonicWALL.
SonicWALL’s RF-DPI engine provides organizations with increased insight into inbound and outbound network content without compromising security or performance. This is particularly important in Web 2.0 applications. In addition, the RF-DPI technology leverages SonicWALL’s GRID Network reputation databases providing extra-firewall intelligence.
Elaborating on SonicWALL’s partner expansion in the UAE, Shahnawaz Sheikh, Regional Sales Manager - Middle East and Africa, SonicWALL said, “Abu Dhabi is a viable market for our products. Our partner expansion in the Emirate will be conducted through trainings, certifications, pre-sales support and industry-specific marketing events.”
