Dell Announces Alliance with INTEGRITY Global Security
ROUND ROCK, Texas - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Dell
said today that it will provide government customers with enhanced
security for desktop computing systems through a new global alliance.
The company announced a relationship with INTEGRITY
Global Security that makes Dell the exclusive provider of the
INTEGRITY separation
kernel for general-purpose secure computing to government agencies.
Currently, many federal agencies with data of various security levels
must use multiple, physically separated systems as the only reliable
option to keep information safe, resulting in complex infrastructures
and extremely inefficient computing. Instead, with the Dell | INTEGRITY
Secure Consolidated Client Solution, a government agency can use a
single physical system to access data of varying security sensitivities,
network domains and/or user environments.
In addition, agencies can work on publicly accessible documents or
access the Internet on the same systems they use when working on
sensitive documents, with the sessions completely secured from each
other. The Dell | INTEGRITY Secure Consolidated Client Solution helps
lower the total cost of ownership (TCO) by allowing customers to
consolidate their hardware footprint, reducing IT infrastructure costs.
This solution gives Dell customers the same INTEGRITY separation kernel
technology that has been protecting high-value data and providing a
high-assurance platform for military-embedded systems worldwide for more
than 10 years. The solution is designed to meet stringent government
requirements for data separation, and is based on proven technology:
-
INTEGRITY-178B Separation Kernel - certified by NIAP to EAL6+1 and
High Robustness, and
-
Dell OptiPlex desktop PCs, which are widely used by government
customers.
The security solution is another fulfillment of Dell's commitment to
simplify implementation and management of high-performing IT by:
-
Plugging directly into existing environments,
-
Requiring minimal training,
-
Allowing for scalability, with a modular design that supports future
computing needs,
-
Reducing the need for an administrator to manage multiple platforms,
with remote provisioning for both thin- and thick-client capabilities,
and
-
Streamlining product and software support through a range of Dell
service suites, including ProConsult, ProManage and ProSupport.
The Dell | INTEGRITY Secure Consolidated Client Solution is available
today from Dell.
