Reflex Security Positioned in Visionaries
Quadrant in Influential Network Intrusion Prevention
Systems Appliances Magic Quadrant
Evaluation of Reflex Security Based on Completeness
of Vision and Ability to Execute
ATLANTA - January 17, 2007 — Gartner, Inc., a leading provider of
research and analysis about the global information technology industry,
recently positioned Reflex Security (www.reflexsecurity.com) in the “Visionaries” Quadrant
in its latest Magic Quadrant for Network Intrusion Prevention Systems
Appliances, 2H06 (1).
The annual Gartner report is an analysis tool for organizations evaluating
vendors in the Network Intrusion Prevention Systems Appliance marketplace.
Gartner selects “Visionaries” as companies that they have
concluded “invest in the leading/bleeding-edge features that will
be significant in the next generation of products and give buyers early
access to improved security and management. Visionaries can affect the
course of technological developments in the market.”
Reflex Security has introduced many innovative network security solutions
in the past year. Augmenting its product line of award-winning IPS appliances
was Reflex’s rollout of the networking industry’s first scalable 10 Gigabit IPS, first virtualized intrusion prevention for virtualization,
and high availability/instant fail over for inline intrusion prevention.
“IT managers are faced with unprecedented challenges to balance
performance, availability, and compliance, with an imperative for enterprise-wide
security, said Jim Watson, CEO of Reflex Security. “We believe Gartner’s
positioning of Reflex Security in the “Visionaries” quadrant
in its Magic Quadrant is confirmation of our continuing delivery of innovative
and robust IPS solutions, combined with our commitment to meet customers’ needs
for comprehensive, best-of-breed security.”
