CloudShield to Announce Next Generation Cyber Platform, the CS-4000, at the AT&T Cyber Security Conference

MIDDLETOWN, N.J., May 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- CloudShield Technologies, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) (NYSE: SAI), is announcing its latest cyber offering, the CS-4000, a next generation trusted network security platform for hardened networking solutions. CloudShield developed the CS-4000 based on real world deployments to better protect critical infrastructure and ensure subscriber data privacy. CloudShield will showcase the CS-4000 at the 13th Annual AT&T Cyber Security Conference May 18 at the AT&T R&D Center in Middletown, N.J.

The CS-4000 allows carriers and enterprise customers to integrate a variety of subscriber data privacy products into a secure form-factor that operates at carrier-grade speeds. This product brings significant improvements to data rates and network security while reducing the total cost of ownership of the network architecture. CloudShield's advances in carrier-grade, deep packet processing intellectual property, incorporated as a result of lessons learned from successful security and service control deployments across numerous commercial networks, offers industry proven command and control benefits across a range of deployment scenarios.  

CS-4000's multi-faceted architecture combines the power of CloudShield's fourth-generation deep packet inspection (DPI) capabilities with the most advanced multi-core, general-purpose processing in a single converged platform for scalable, active network solutions.  To ensure the integrity of critical infrastructure solutions, the CS-4000 is hardened both at the operating system and with physical security countermeasures protecting the system itself, making it the highest assurance platform available for integrating a broad commercial partner ecosystem and deep packet inspection applications for the most complex and challenging cyber networking deployments.

"The CS-4000 provides network visibility and cyber control to commercial organizations and telecommunications providers with the advanced technology needed to enable the real-time protection of critical infrastructure and data against today's more sophisticated and prevalent cyber network attacks," said Matt Jones, president of CloudShield.  

CloudShield cyber security experts will be available at the conference to discuss how CS-4000 offers the power of a proven cyber security platform with an open application development environment can offer a better defensive posture to protect commercial networks.
