Innovative Approach Secures the Organization's Web-linked Applications and Data Assets

HERZLIYA, Israel, November 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Applicure Technologies has announced the release of TotalShield 2.0 - an advanced security solution affording end-to-end protection for the corporate Web environment. Whereas existing security solutions such as firewalls or anti-virus protect the perimeter, Applicure's patent-pending technology completes the security picture by extending guaranteed protection into the Web environment itself.

"In today's environment, the Web has become an indispensable medium for housing mission-critical applications and data - but at the same time, the Web's open nature has turned the corporate Web environment into a lightning rod for hackers who use it to penetrate the network and compromise the organization's most sensitive assets," says Moshe Basol, CEO and co-founder of Applicure. "What has made things even more complicated is the fact that existing Web security solutions have fallen short - leaving organizations with the impression that they have to choose between functionality and security. With TotalShield, that's no longer true: you can actually have your cake and eat it too."

TotalShield employs strong, system-level protection to enforce access policies for different users. And uniquely among existing Web security solutions, it is able to track HTTP request execution in real time across Web, Application, and Database tiers, in any application architecture - ensuring that those policies are enforced at any and all stages, and leaving no points of vulnerability for hackers to exploit. At the same time, TotalShield utilizes an intuitive 'positive security' approach that engenders minimal maintenance overhead. TotalShield is a 100% software-based solution that deploys directly on the target host/s without disrupting the existing network infrastructure.

New features in TotalShield 2.0 include:

- Protection for common application servers including WebSphere and WebLogic

- Broad support for the Linux and Unix / Solaris platforms

- Broad support for Apache and iPlanet Web servers

- Advanced attack diagnostics and graphical displays

- Modular design enabling custom solutions meeting organizational needs
