MAHWAH, NJ June 17, 2003 02:00 PM

Radware (NASDAQ; RDWR) the leading provider of Intelligent Application Switching (IAS) solutions, ensuring availability, performance and the security of networked applications across the enterprise, announced today deployments at several premier educational institutions designed to optimize applications and secure university resources.

“Universities worldwide are recognizing that Radware solutions address all application needs across the network. With increased demands on the network infrastructure ranging from online registration, administrative reporting, video streaming and Internet access for all students and professors, Radware ensures the complete operation and security of every IP application,” said Vik Desai, COO, Radware. “Radware’s proven and cost effective solutions meet this growing need in the education sector, providing the availability, scalability and optimization of networks without compromising downtime or performance degradation.”

Berklee College of Music (www.berklee.edu) deployed Radware’s LinkProof for link load balancing as well as comprehensive control of link bandwidth allocation, delivering Quality of Service by prioritizing traffic and allocating bandwidth based on user and destination. Since Berklee College of Music is the world’s largest independent music college and the premier institution for the study of contemporary music, it is imperative that the university has a highly available, optimized and scalable solution, which enables both students and faculty to retrieve information quickly each and every time they approach the site.

“Radware’s LinkProof helps us maximize our IT infrastructure, protecting our network from downtime with continuous Internet access,” said Aaron Thompson, Network Systems Administrator, Berklee College of Music. “Radware's Application Switching solution identifies resource failures, intelligently handling traffic patterns while providing accelerated content delivery. While I was reviewing solutions for ISP redundancy Radware's LinkProof stood above the others by meeting all of our requirements; technical, and financial."

The University of Windsor in Ontario Canada is leveraging Radware’s FireProof security application switch to ensure the full optimization of security tools protecting the university’s network. FireProof’s intrusion prevention and Denial of Service protection mitigates attacks against the University’s network operations and resources at Gigabit speeds, delivering continuous and scalable defense.

“Radware’s FireProof eliminates the security-performance tradeoff and the university benefits from fault tolerant security,” said Noah Diesbourg, Network Specialist at the University of Windsor. “Radware’s fault tolerant security solution is a critical component of our network infrastructure, because it safeguards our network and applications through advanced health monitoring and traffic redirection, ensuring constant reliability and connectivity.”

In developing robust Application Switching solutions, Radware addresses the application as well as budgetary needs of the educational environment, enabling students, professors and administrators to stay connected academically as well as technologically – while optimizing performance for efficient network utilization.
