Vernier Networks®, developer of enterprise network security solutions, has been awarded Info Security Products Guide’s "Best Deployment Scenario" for its installation at the University of Miami. Selected from more than 500 product and solutions from across the globe, Vernier will be highlighted among North American, European and Asian-Pacific information security vendors in the July 2005 Info Security Products Guide.

"This award win demonstrates our dedication and success to delivering enterprise network security solutions in a variety of settings – educational, healthcare and enterprise," said Simon Khalaf, chief executive officer for Vernier Networks. "Our EdgeWall product line continues to gain recognition as a solution that provides enterprises with the level of security needed to enforce access policy and defend against security breaches."

"The 'Best Deployment Scenario Award' recognizes companies that are proving their products and solutions actually work through demonstrating real deployments and making today’s networks safer," said Judy Shelton, group editor, Silicon Valley Communications, publishers of the Info Security Products Guide. Vernier’s winning case study describes the challenges of the University of Miami and its School of Medicine to secure a network in a university and hospital setting and demonstrates how EdgeWall network access management helps the IT department meet that goal.

Vernier Networks offers the industry’s only clientless network access management products that enable enterprises to assure business continuity. Deployed at the network edge, Vernier’s EdgeWall security appliance provides comprehensive enterprise network security to defend against intrusions and attacks on the network by screening users and devices, restricting access, inspecting traffic for worms and viruses, and enforcing access policy. Unlike desktop-based solutions that rely on end-user integrity, Vernier offers an integrated network-based endpoint security solution that keeps security and access control in the hands of the IT department and does not require expensive and hard to manage desktop software.
