Vendors Offer New Tools and Pricing at Breakaway

Technology vendors are announcing new products, services and partnerships at CompTIA Breakaway this week. A few of the noteworthy items:

eGestalt Technologies announced version 11 of its award-winning security and compliance management solution that provides PCI and HIPAA/HITECH-based security and risk assessment, auditing and remediation. The tool offers peace of mind to channel partners servicing SMBs to large enterprises, including medical providers and their business associates, retailers and merchants that must meet PCI and HIPAA/HITECH requirements. For more information, visit http://www.eGestalt.com or see eGestalt Technologies at Breakaway Booth 418.

BlackBox announced two new products. The SmartPath Enterprise Wireless system combines the speed and security of a wired network with the versatility of a wireless network. Unlike ordinary wireless, in which access points function as accessories to the wired network, SmartPath access points (APs) work as equal partners to the wired network, giving you a practical, cost-effective way to provide wireless across your organization. Black Box® EncrypTight™ provides solid security across the Internet or a private WAN. It encrypts data at OSI Layer 2, 3, or 4 and works with all kinds of network traffic, including VoIP. The Layer 4 payload-only encryption option leaves Layer 3 packet headers intact, bypassing problems with policy-based routing and load balancing, as well as NAT, all of which frequently don’t work with Layer 3 encryption. For more information, visit http://www.blackbox.com or see BlackBox is at Breakaway Booth 613.

Cloud automation software provider Hatsize, which offers hands-on demos and training, announced three flexible, cloud-ready pricing models: Pay-As-You-Go (PAYGo), Reserve-and-Grow and Subscription to support growing channel and global enterprise sales. Hatsize Reserve-and-Grow is a new, cloud-based pricing model that lets clients float licenses globally. This model provides global coverage with minimum latency and is suited for international distributors and enterprises that require scalability and flexibility.
