Red Hat, the provider of open source solutions, announced the availability of secure server bundles, in partnership with Symantec, targeted at the small and medium-sized businesses.
The two companies will leverage the "Red Hat on Intel" channel distribution model for delivery of the solutions starting in June 2007. The distribution for these bundled solutions will include existing Red Hat and Symantec channel partners which may not be part of the Red Hat-on-Intel channel. Both Red Hat and Symantec will independently offer associated updates, support and services.
The package offers customers the choice of Red Hat Enterprise Linux or the Red Hat Application Stack bundled with Symantec Critical System Protection. These solutions enable customers to implement a secure server complete with the Linux and middleware platform from Red Hat for both pre-configured and custom-configured behavior-based host protection and against application threats running on the server.
"The inherent security advantages of Red Hat Enterprise Linux and the Application Stack, combined with Symantec's Critical System Protection, give small and medium enterprises a great standards-based, secure foundation for a variety of application workloads," said Todd Barr, director of enterprise marketing, Red Hat.
"The combination of Symantec Critical System Protection with Red Hat on the servers ensures that enterprises can deploy mission-critical applications for their business infrastructure and know that it's protected from misconfiguration, insider abuse and external attacks - even from zero-day vulnerability attacks," said Brian Foster, senior director of product management, Symantec.
The bundled solutions are designed to lower overall implementation time, avoid costly hardware upgrades and be standards-based. Designed for simple integration with existing infrastructure, each solution is certified for reliability.
