Perimeter Internetworking Announces Partnership with United Bankers’ Bank (UBB)
Milford, CT May 5, 2006
– Perimeter Internetworking™, the leading provider of multi-threat,
Security In The Cloud (MTSiC) services for financial institutions and
other businesses with high data availability and security requirements,
announced today their partnership with United Bankers’ Bank (UBB), the
wholly owned correspondent banking subsidiary of United Bankers’
Bancorporation, Inc. Under the terms of the partnership UBB will
recommend Perimeter's hosted Security in the Cloud service offerings to
their correspondent banks.
“We are excited to formalize our
partnership with UBB, one of the largest correspondent banks in the
Federal Reserve's 9th District,�? said Brad Miller, CEO of Perimeter
Internetworking. “Over 240 shareholder banks with combined assets of
more than $7.8 billion have invested in UBB, providing them with a
tremendous pool of community bank strength and experience. UBB is
dedicated to providing a full range of banking services to community
banks in the Midwest and the best possible service to their customers.�?
“United
Bankers’ Bank has made technology a focus of new product development
for many years,�? said UBB President William C. Rosacker. “For our
community bank customers, staying competitive in a marketplace that
continues to grow and evolve can be a challenge. Our partnership with
Perimeter Internetworking fits both of these objectives. We can now
offer industry leading network protection systems to our community bank
customers and they can continue to embrace technology as a means to
grow their businesses without fear of having inadequate security
measures in place.�?
Perimeter’s Gateway 4.0 is the fourth
generation of the market’s leading “Security-in-the-Cloud�? solution.
Gateway 4.0 combines dozens of technologies from best-of-breed vendors
to create the industry’s first “business aware�? perimeter security
service. The Gateway security service replaces traditional firewall
and IDS monitoring services with a hosted, network-based service that
eliminates the need for all future capital expenditures and integration
costs. Gateway 4.0 starts with a model of Perimeter’s clients’ business
processes, their value to the business and the potential impacts of
breach or failure. With this knowledge, Gateway 4.0 can distinguish
the events that will be business impacting from the ever present noise
of security technology. Gateway 4.0 provides over 60 pre-integrated
network security services including Intrusion Defense, Malicious Code
Defense, Secure Email Services, Secure Access, Automated Compliance,
and Network Services.
