With testing near complete PacketViper v2.0 made a big splash with its new face-lift, and jaw dropping features with network security professionals.

West Mifflin, PA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 10/07/2013 -- Frank Trama Frank Trama, (Read His Blog) President & Co-founder said " Our development team, and beta volunteers have worked very long, and hard hours while showing incredible patience shaking out bugs. We could not have done it without them. Working closely together we not only produced a rock solid upgrade but discovered new additional methods to improve upon PacketViper's Geo IP filtering capabilities."

PacketViper v2.0 has been in beta for several months now, and has not only impressed co-founders Frank Trama, and Dan Gynn, but made quite a few network security professional heads turn, when it debuted at ASIS 2013 Chicago.

With just over twenty thousand conference attendees, and among a sea of physical security vendors, giant booths, and eye grabbing attractions sat booth 5133, where Viper Network Systems was showing off PacketViper v2.0

Ralph Palaski, Channel Sales Manager said "To be honest, we were not expecting much since the conference seemed oriented towards physical security. Our expectations were wrong though. I found it hard at times to find a few minutes to sit. There was that much interest in PacketViper, just crazy."

ASIS attendees which consisted of Network Security leaders, IT directors, CIO, and CEO's watched with intrigue as PacketViper was being demonstrated catching even the eyes of other from large bedazzled booths around them.

PacketViper 2.0 turned the page in Geo IP filtering by improving upon what PacketViper 1.4 offered. Now capable of building redirection, triggers, alerts, thresholds, and custom rules that can be based on proprietary Global Network Lists, and countries. Customers can now alert, auto block, and rate limit on IP, network, countries, and Global Network Lists inbound or outbound.

This provides a huge benefit for customers who want to zero in on specific countries, and companies. In other words, customers could limit traffic from the entire Microsoft network enterprise to a web port at a specific IP, set a trigger to rate limit if a threshold is exceeded, or simply redirect all Microsoft's networks to some other IP address on their network.

Another exciting feature is how customers can disable logging based on the country, or Global Network List. This is very beneficial for network security forensics, for those of you who ever experienced logging overload you know what we are talking about. PacketViper can temporarily disable logging to/from specific countries, and companies/networks listed within their Global Network Lists to help view key in on traffic much easier within their actionable real time logs.

Other than the obvious make over and new optimized GUI to PacketViper 1.4, the country filter area is another area that network security professional seem to key on. The Country Filter page now includes a zoom, heat maps to show its rules/traffic from different perspectives, mouse over statistics, disable logging, private notes, and outbound port fields to simplify bi-directional filtering.

With PacketViper on the market for a few years now, 2.0 has combined many of the needs and wants from customer feedback into this version. Viper Network Systems, along with their growing customer base believe this is one of the most important layers deployed in their network security chain. It provides a quick ability to remove unwanted network traffic to exposed ports, alleviates pressure in the security environment, saves bandwidth, and combats cyber attacks surgically.

Frank Trama " We provided a common sense approach to a obvious global problem. It's a numbers game, and attackers have more. Limit your network port exposure, this is what PacketViper does."

Trama recently released a Geo IP White Paper which explains in great detail the importance of this layer. It can be downloaded freely from Viper Network Systems site. The white paper comes in a English and Spanish version.

Francesco Trama, President & Co-Founder of Viper Network Systems, LLC, released a white paper introducing transformational new capabilities for Geo-IP filtering systems that Mr. Trama believes could revolutionize the cyber-security paradigm.

West Mifflin, PA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/04/2013 -- In "Making a World of Difference - Geo-IP Filtering's Crucial Importance to Your Cyber Security System" white paper, Trama highlights limitations in typical security systems and the risks inherent in relying on them. Mr. Trama also outlines crucial changes in ease-of-use and precision for geographical screening enabled by Point and Click Country Network Filters™", and provides some surprising data and first-hand reports of dramatic reductions in cyber-threats, unwanted network traffic, and improvements in network performance attributed to new and enhanced Geo-IP filtering systems.

The paper paints a picture of enhanced Geo-IP filtering as a new and powerful weapon in the cyber-security arsenal, and it comes as some promising news in a global networking environment that seems to be increasing under siege and at risk. Mr. Trama quotes a host of figures from respected analysts in network security, with all signs indicating that "the numbers and severity of cyber-attacks will get much worse before they get better", making this paper essential reading for business leaders and network security professionals in companies of all sizes. The paper can be downloaded at http://www.packetviper.com

Mr. Trama draws heavily on his two decades in the Technology sector recalling that, "in all the years of building a variety of secure environments, none of them ever effectively addressed specific country issues or could accurately tell me the origin of my problem". Moreover, Trama understands the reservations of network professionals who have had previous experience with country blocking software or Geo-IP filtering, admitting that those earlier versions were "simply impractical". However, enhanced Geo-IP filtering systems like Trama's PacketViper combine dramatically upgraded levels of precision within an agile, intuitive, user-friendly interface. Mr. Trama takes pride in his part in making new versions of Geo-IP filtering "admin friendly, practical, powerful, and useful".

"Octopi has a powerful new ally in the war on cyber-crime and cyber-espionage," says Ian Trump, Chief Technical Officer at Octopi Managed Services Inc.

West Mifflin, PA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/30/2013 -- PacketViper, is a new generation of Geo-IP network filter, which allows clients to block or filter any country's access into your network or service, providing real-time protection from foreign and domestic threats. Octopi Managed Services is the Canadian re-seller of this exciting and revolutionary product.

"It's simple to use, provides an unparalleled experience to the user; it just uses a clickable map, and customized protection is at your fingertips," Mr. Trump explains.

Deployment and configuration takes only minutes; PacketViper hardens and improves network security, giving another powerful tool in the toolbox against unwanted network traffic. Although there are other products on the market that can block countries, PacketViper can be fine-tuned to focus on ports as well. "It's precision protection instead of a shot-gun approach to network security. As a small medium business, you may want everyone to visit your website, but maybe you only want IPs from North America to be able to reach your Outlook Web Access or Virtual Private Networking access point. Reduce the risk by controlling and dropping traffic that should not be arriving at your network services," explains Mr. Trump.

PacketViper is scalable, can run on a dedicated appliance, or as a software solution. It works with precision; it can block an entire country, giving a customizable solution to any corporation or business with international ties, or aspirations. Cybercrime and Cyber Espionage are a global problem requiring a global solution. PacketViper allows everyone, from the individual, to the multi-national corporation to think globally about protection.

"If your organization has no business reason to send or receive network traffic to destinations outside your market area, why does your firewall accept this traffic?" Many PacketViper customers are sleeping better at night knowing that if they get infected by something that makes it past the anti-virus the Packet Viper will alert to the traffic and drop the connection. "It's probably not a good thing if your internal network starts trying to send traffic to Iran at 3:00 in the morning," says Mr. Trump. PacketViper prevents and alerts to a scenario like this and can really save the day. "It's a perfect blend of Firewall technologies and business requirements; it makes sense to drop traffic that should not be there in the first place."
