PALO ALTO, California —
March 01, 2005 — Solidcore Systems,
Inc., the leading developer of control solutions
for devices, appliances and applications
with embedded operating systems, today announced
the general availability of its Solidcore
Embedded Solution™. Solidcore’s
Embedded Solution enables its OEM partners
to increase their revenue and margins while
improving operational efficiency for their
customers. The company also launched the
Solidified by Solidcore™ program,
which assists its OEM partners in marketing
Solidcore’s embedded control technology
to their customers.
“Solidcore’s
control solutions for embedded systems empower
our OEM partners to assure the stability
and improve the security of their offerings,”
said Rosen Sharma, president and CEO of
Solidcore. “They can reduce support
costs, increase margins, and realize proven,
measurable, and repeatable benefits for
themselves and their customers. Our Solidified
by Solidcore program helps our partners
to instantly communicate those benefits
to end users, giving them an easily recognized
competitive advantage in an increasingly
crowded marketplace.”
The Solidcore Embedded
Solution for devices, appliances, and applications
built on open, industry-standard platforms,
enables OEM partners to realize stability,
security, and support benefits through the
assertion of total control over the runtime
environment of their offerings when in deployment.
The solution allows OEM partners to leverage
the cost efficiencies of building on open,
industry-standard platforms, while taking
advantage of deploying their offerings in
a manner consistent with highly differentiated,
closed, proprietary systems. Solidcore helps
address the multi-tier support challenges
that arise from alteration or corruption
of the runtime environment as a result of
inadvertent actions or malicious attacks.
The Solidcore Embedded
Solution employs Solidification™,
a fundamentally new technology that delivers
runtime control but requires no initial
configuration or on-going monitoring, introduces
minimal overhead, and has a very small footprint.
Solidification technology makes every computer
unique and immutable. It prevents the execution
of unauthorized programs and unauthorized
attempts to modify Solidified programs on
a host computing device.
"It made a great deal
of practical sense for us to include Solidcore’s
control technology in all of our software,"
said Charlie Wilson, vice president of sales
at AppWorx, a Solidcore OEM partner. "AppWorx
software is mission-critical to our customers
and is used to automate, integrate, and
accelerate business application processing.
It is our business to make our customers’
core business applications run better. Solidcore’s
solution assures greater stability and higher
levels of availability of the key business
services that we support. It also elevates
our products even further above the competition
and gives customers one more reason to buy
AppWorx over other offerings. I anticipate
significant revenue enhancement and increased
customer satisfaction as a result of embedding
Solidcore’s technology in our products."
"We are the first
in our space to offer Solidcore’s
unconditional security to our customers,"
said Mo Tahmasebi, president and CEO of
Dynamic Network Factory (DNF), another Solidcore
OEM partner. "Our core competency is
creating innovative products based on cutting-edge
technologies in a variety of cost-effective
configurations. Solidcore’s easy to
deploy control solutions are an ideal fit
for increasing security on our NAS, SAN,
IP SAN, and iSCSI solutions. With increasing
security headaches and network-based attacks,
IT departments are overwhelmed and are searching
for a solution to safeguard their storage.
We are offering the industry’s first
secured storage solutions in response to
these rapidly increasing customer requests
utilizing Solidification technology."
"We are very excited
about bringing extraordinary value to both
Appworx and DNF," said Bob Sandie,
Solidcore’s executive vice president
of corporate development. "In the coming
weeks and months, we are looking forward
to announcing additional agreements with
hardware and software companies."
