REDWOOD CITY, CA, September 8, 2003 – Gilian Technologies [www.Gilian.com], a leading provider of Web application security technology, today announced its G-Server 2.5 has achieved Common Criteria certification. The G-Server is the first and only Web server protection product to meet the rigorous certification requirements. Common Criteria (CC) is an internationally recognized ISO standard (ISO 15408) used by the U.S. government and other organizations to assess security and assurance of technology products. Gilian’s G-Server appliance secures applications on both the inbound and the outbound direction. By inspecting all incoming HTTP/S requests, the G-Server's EntryControl detects a broad range of common vulnerabilities, both known and unknown. It identifies the malformed request and blocks it before it reaches the Web server. On the outbound, the G-Server is based on patent-pending ExitControl™ technology. Using digital signatures to verify the validity of the outbound flow of information, the G-Server steps in and replaces any sabotaged or corrupt material with the original. The CC certification assures Gilian customers that the G-Server offers the highest level of Web protection possible for combating Web site hacking and protecting against application-level attacks, and for protecting corporate applications from compromise. “Gilian is committed to meeting the highest global security standards,” said Dr. Aviram Margalith, CEO of Gilian Technologies. “Common Criteria certification provides an objective way to measure a vendor’s security claims and now makes the G-Server even more eligible for deployment in highly sensitive environments, such as local, state and federal government organizations and financial enterprises. ” |
