May, 2002 : SnapGear, Hitachi Semiconductor Team on Appliances

📅 May 17, 2002 - Internet security firm SnapGear (snapgear.com) said this week it would collaborate with Hitachi Semiconductor (America) Inc. to develop gateway appliances that will provide network security and services for businesses and consumers connecting to the Internet.

The solution, which will be built on Hitachi's microprocessors, will also provide greater processing power for advanced audio and video applications over broadband and wireless interfaces.
"SnapGear's VPN (Virtual Private Networking) and firewall technology will make the appliances more secure than most products currently found in even Fortune 500 companies, which are presently at risk," the company said in a release. "Most existing gateway products lack the processing power to address next generation network services."
SnapGear produces a range of firewall appliances designed to provide Internet security and privacy of communications for small to medium enterprises. The company also offers custom engineering and provides turnkey development, design, manufacturing, and fulfillment services for telecommunications companies and silicon manufacturers.
