Dulles,
VA. June 3, 2003 – Encore
Networks, a leading developer of integrated
IP+Legacy Virtual Private Network (VPN) security
solutions, today announced the latest release
of its leading IP operating system software,
ELIOS™ 3.0. The ELIOS™ 3.0 release
supports a common feature set across all
Encore Networks platforms, including the
recently announced BANDIT-Plus™, a
high performance, multi-service IP+Legacy
VPN host solution.
With its significant
new enhancements, the ELIOS™ 3.0
operating system software is designed as
both a money saver for enterprise customers
and as a revenue generator for service
providers. Enterprise customers will be
able to use ELIOS™ 3.0 to leverage
their embedded installation base and allow
for a smooth and seamless migration from
legacy applications (bisync, poll-select,
SCADA, SDLC, SNA, etc.) to broadband IP
VPN services. Carriers will be able to
converge their different legacy packet
networks (Analog, X.25, FR) over a single
core IP network. Also, ELIOS™ 3.0
enables them to penetrate additional markets
by offering managed, next generation multi-service
applications over a single network connection
such as voice, data, security, and VPNs. |
