SARVEGA EXTENDS ITS MARKET LEADERSHIP WITH THE SARVEGA COMMAND CENTER,
THE INDUSTRY'S FIRST CENTRAL SECURITY POLICY CONFIGURATION, DEPLOYMENT
AND MANAGEMENT PLATFORM FOR XML WEB SERVICES 

Chicago, IL, February 14, 2005 -- Sarvega, Inc, the leader in XML
Networking solutions, announced today the availability of the Sarvega
Command Center, a powerful configuration, deployment and management
platform for the Sarvega XML Guardian Gateway. 
As Web Services security deployments continue to increase in policy
complexity and cluster size, the challenge of providing consistent
security configuration along with streamlined and efficient management
grows commensurately. The Sarvega Command Center addresses this need,
providing a robust EclipseT based platform designed to facilitate the
task of configuring, deploying and monitoring Sarvega XML Guardian
Gateway appliances whether within a single XML Guardian Gateway, a
cluster, or across multiple distributed clusters. The Sarvega Command
Center provides a simple visual drag-and-drop mechanism for security
policy configuration, testing, and deployment on one or many XML
Guardian Gateway appliances.  Further, the Sarvega Command Center
provides an open, extensible and interoperable platform that can be
easily extended and integrated into applications security management
environments.
 The Sarvega Command Center has extensive intrusion prevention
capabilities along with high performance, flexibility, reliability and
central management," said Girish Juneja, co-founder and senior vice
president of product management for Sarvega. "These features give
enterprises a powerful tool to use with their large and small
mission-critical XML Web Services deployments."
Key features and benefits include:

. Easy to configure sophisticated web services security policy: The
Sarvega Command Center provides administrators a single tool to
automatically virtualize a Web Service based on its definition (WSDL).
It also enables administrators to create an entire default Web Services
security policy and enhance it by selecting policy actions from the
visual drag-and-drop ready-made categorized templates, which cover every
major possible security decision. These actions include Web Services
security decisions such as Authentication, Authorization, Schema
Validation, XML/SOAP/ebXML security, XML signatures, XML encryption,
SAML support, credential mapping and secure logging.  It also includes
XML threat prevention actions for attacks such as Coercive Parsing, XML
Denial of Service, Buffer Overflow, SQL Injection attacks; as well as
Security Infrastructure actions such as load-balancing, routing and
transformation actions.
 
. Ensure consistent security policy enforcement: The Sarvega Command
Center is the only solution that enables cluster management of security
gateways. Devices can be grouped into different groups and specific
policies created in the Sarvega Command Center can be securely uploaded
with a single click to a group or a set of devices with rollback options
to maintain cluster integrity and policy security. 

. Optimize performance: With the Sarvega Command Center, the security
policies can be updated in real-time to a cluster of XML Guardian
Gateways with no down time. With the ability to rapidly modify and
update policies to a cluster, it reduces security infrastructure
vulnerability to threats and improves disaster recovery.

. Enhance administrator and user productivity:  The Sarvega Command
Center eases the administration tasks by providing a combined view of
active security policies, software and hardware configuration and alarms
for a single or a cluster of XML Guardian Gateway(s) with the ability to
enable/disable specific configurations.  

Sarvega Command Center is currently available on Microsoft Windows 2000,
Windows NT, Windows XP with an upcoming availability on the RedHat Linux
9.0 platform.
