3Com plans to integrate intrusion prevention technology from its TippingPoint subsidiary into networking gear from its H3C division as part of a strategy to deliver streamlined secure networks at less cost and power consumption than marquee vendors.
The company kicked off its initiative on Monday with appliances and switch modules based on VPN (virtual private network) technology from H3C. Early next year it will start introducing blades with the TippingPoint IPS (intrusion prevention system) for its modular networking products, according to Gary Kinghorn, product marketing manager for security at 3Com. Also beginning next year, the company will build a single management platform from TippingPoint's Security Management System (SMS) and H3C's Intelligent Management Center (IMC) software.
