Jul 7, 2009Cymphonix Launches iPhone App and New Version of Network Composer
SALT LAKE CITY, UT, Jul 07 (MARKET WIRE) --Cymphonix(R) today released the latest version of its award-winning
Cymphonix Network Composer(R) product, introducing new features and
enhanced reporting capabilities that provide unprecedented visibility and
control for Web traffic and Internet applications. As part of today's
announcement, Cymphonix also unveiled a new application for the Apple
iPhone* and iPod* touch that gives IT managers the ability to monitor and
report their network traffic from the convenience of a handheld device.
Today's Cymphonix news supports the company's mission to help customers
achieve complete visibility, security and control over Internet traffic to
ensure that business-critical applications, such as Salesforce or ERP
systems, are guaranteed the bandwidth to perform as expected. As more
organizations begin to view Web 2.0 and cloud computing applications as
viable business tools, they will require flexible solutions that allow
them to intelligently prioritize and manage content, applications and
bandwidth.
"Everything in our industry has moved online," said Gene Harrison, network
engineer for New York Eye and Ear Infirmary. "Applications such as
Medicaid, Medicare, external billing programs, and programs designed to
research possible drug interactions are now web-based. Having deep
visibility into Web traffic and Internet applications, and the ability to
fine tune usage policies to create an efficient and secure internet
connection is critical to keeping up with new advances in medicine."
Key features for the latest version of Network Composer include:
Visibility Enhancements
-- New, highly-scalable reporting engine that dramatically boosts
visibility for large environments
-- New multi-correlated management reporting capabilities for achieving
granular-level visibility and the ability to drill down into users' access
and usage patterns.
-- Enhanced Network Composer database architecture that supports network
administrators' specific reporting needs and supports industry standard
tools, such as Crystal Reports, Excel, Access or PERL programs.
Content Identification for Industry Leading Web Filtering
-- Enhanced content identification with increased URL database, expanded
dynamic content engines, more than 90 content categories, and support for
21 languages provides users with an unsurpassed ability to create
comprehensive Web access policies.
-- Expanded spyware/Malware Recognition through participation in a global
anti-malware consortium that provides shared code samples and information
from multiple honeypots.
The new iPhone and iPod touch application unveiled today gives 'on
the go' users the ability to conduct real-time monitoring and manage a
secure Web gateway from the convenience of the iPhone and iPod touch
devices. The idea of providing access to critical data from anywhere --
and letting users actually interact and manage that data -- is an
industry first.
"Solutions capable of providing a high level of visibility have become a
'must have' for any organization that wants to capture the business
benefits of Web 2.0 in a secure and productive way," said Brent Nixon,
president of Cymphonix. "Our ability to control and manage content that
best aligns with business needs is a huge differentiator for Cymphonix and
it helps us ensure that our customers' Internet connection will remain
fast, secure and reliable."
