Maximizing partner revenue in the underserved network security market for small and medium enterprises, Napera Networks (www.napera.com), a company dedicated to helping small and medium-sized enterprises succeed at network security, has announced a new partnership with VCW Security (www.vcwsecurity.com), a distributor of IT security products in the United Kingdom.

 

With this partnership, Napera will roll out its partner program in the UK and work with VCW's growing community of VARs and system integrators.

 

Recently, Napera had introduced its first product, the Napera N24. This is a network access control solution that includes a switch-based appliance and integrated Web-based management service. In a single easy-to-use and manage solution, the Napera N24 combines device health, identity enforcement, and guest access. Companies can now deploy wireless networking, guest access, and worker mobility programs with the help of Napera's line of integrated products and Web services. They can also keep the corporate network safe and secure with this product.

 

Napera solution is an ideal add-on sale to related products, such as firewalls, wireless access points, anti-malware solutions, Windows Vista upgrades, and remote access VPNs. It can also be included in broader services around security infrastructure, laptop security, or network access control. Working with nearly all anti-malware solutions on the market today, the Napera N24 leverages Microsoft (News - Alert) Network Access Protection protocols. Also, with the Napera N24S expansion appliance, and other to-be-released Napera products, Napera offers partners a relatively quick sell with opportunities for future add-on units.

 

“Napera's solution helps address the key issues of complexity, cost, and increasing threats that companies face in trying to achieve network security by delivering a solution that controls network access for all users with ease of management and affordability,” said Graham Fox, managing director, VCW Security. “We chose to partner with Napera because of their strong technology and products as well as their commitment to providing channel partners with the margins, marketing support, and roadmap needed to grow their security businesses.”
