- I think Clavister has a high potential for success on the Latin American, Spanish and Portuguese markets, says Miguel A. Llerena, President of Evinter Group. Clavister is one of the leading developers of firewall technology that appeals to this markets, which are having high demands for IT-security, maintains Miguel A. Llerena.

The Clavister firewall solutions are based on software that runs on a standard Intel PC. A key feature that sets Clavister Firewall apart from other comparable solutions, is that it does not use an underlying operating system. This results in a high level of security since no inherited bugs or flaws from a Unix or Windows solution are passed on. It also means that the whole installation needs less than 400 kilobytes, compared to several megabytes for the competitors.

- When designing firewalls, size is definitely of very high importance. With less code comes higher performance, fewer bugs, easier management and less demands on the hardware platforms, which in turn translates, to lower cost of ownership. Our firewall can also be easily integrated in mobile terminals, phones, set-top boxes and the equivalent, without diminishing security or performance, which opens up a whole new market for firewalls, says John Vestberg, Research and Development Director of Clavister.

On a standard PC server, the Clavister Firewall 7.0 handles a throughput of over 1.7 Gbit/s, which currently rates the highest of any firewall on the market. Together with the Clavister High Availability option, the Clavister Firewall delivers extreme performance, security and enterprise capacity protection at an unbeatable total cost of ownership.
