Britestream SSL Security Solution Listing updated: May 31, 2006

Britestream data privacy technology provides a secure, scalable and simple SSL security solution for processing SSL-encrypted network traffic for Microsoft Windows Server System applications: ISA Server, IIS, Exchange and SharePoint. Britestream Networks provides an SSL security solution for the growing challenge of data security. SSL can often impose a significant performance penalty on a Windows application server. This results in the need to provide more server hardware than necessary just to implement SSL for secure IIS web transactions or Exchange 2003 access through OWA, RPC over HTTP, OMA or ActiveSync. The Britestream SSL security NIC provides full 100 SSL offload and termination. This allows for a Secure ISA Server application that maximizes performance for its primary function, application layer packet inspection. Now SSL security can be turned on by default in more server applications for data privacy and security, both inside and outside of the network, from clients using Internet Explorer or Outlook 2003.

Very often ISA Server is used as an application firewall for high volume transaction web sites or Exchange environments. SSL security is the default method to secure transmissions from the browser or Outlook client. The Britestream SSL security NIC offers 100% offload and termination for this extremely processor intensive function. It completely offloads the SSL security termination and processing from ISA allowing it to do its deep packet inspection of the data. Together, Britestream and ISA Server offer superior SSL security and performance, with no penalty for simply activating SSL, whether connecting from inside or outside of the network.

Luna SA for SSL Listing updated: May 31, 2006

ISA Server acts as a central security gateway for services connected to the Internet. One function performed by ISA is that of a web proxy – a single termination point for web connections, allowing multiple web servers to remain safe within the confines of a company's public network by sharing a single entry point from the Internet. If web transactions require additional security, ISA provides the capability to manage SSL connections for clients behind its firewall. As traffic volume increases, the computationally intensive load generated by incoming SSL requests can easily overwhelm typical computer configurations. Luna SA for SSL adds SChannel acceleration to ease the burden by providing scalable, high-performance SChannel SSL acceleration and proven hardware key management for SSL private keys.

Luna SA for SSL enhances ISA Server SSL sessions with: Reduced bottlenecks at the webserver to increase traffic volumes; Reduced web page loading times; Capacity to set up over 1200 new SSL connections per second per module; Shared SSL acceleration between multiple IIS servers.
