HP announced that its TippingPoint solutions has been selected by
Mobinil, Egypt’s wireless service provider to boost network reliability and
security for its 30 million customers.
HP TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) safeguards Mobinil’s
GSM, 3G mobile and IP networks, shielding its customers from network-borne
threats that could lead to service disruption.
“We need to be confident in our ability to offer assured service
quality. HP delivers the level of network security required to ensure
uninterrupted business continuity for Mobinil and our users,” said Mohamed
Wali, manager, Technology Security Operations, Mobinil.
Mobinil’s network will be supported by HP Technology Services for the
next three years, enabling Mobinil to consistently deliver the broadest, most
up-to-date security for complete business continuity.
Mobinil selected HP TippingPoint S5100N IPS and HP TippingPoint Core
Controller platforms to deliver real-time proactive inline protection for its
distributed data centers and network infrastructure.
HP TippingPoint IPS detects and blocks trojans, viruses, worms or any potentially
damaging network events that could slow down operations, threaten service
quality or cause customer downtime.
By cleaning Mobinil’s networks of malicious and unwanted traffic, HP
TippingPoint IPS has improved network performance of mission-critical
applications. HP TippingPoint IPS devices form a secure, expandable application
platform that allows Mobinil to support future growth.
Moreover, the HP TippingPoint IPS platform has increased network
availability and slashed problem resolution times, creating a more productive
IT environment.
Recently, HP announced the launch of new networking products and services based on the HP FlexNetwork
architecture that delivers the increased flexibility clients need to keep pace
with the demands of globalization and IT consumerization.
The new HP Networking solutions for virtualization, multimedia
applications and enterprise mobility simplify migration to newer Internet
Protocols, the 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) networking standard and virtualized
branch services.
