Check Point Software Technologies has announced what it claims to be the industry`s first comprehensive and open VPN/ solutions for the Linux operating system.

Check Point`s Secure Virtual (SVN) architecture for Red Hat Linux gives Linux users access to the same Internet benefits already available on other major operating systems and platforms.

"We are seeing a growing customer interest in deploying Check Point Software`s Internet security solutions on Linux," says Asheem Chandna, VP of marketing and business development of Check Point Software.

"Check Point`s SVN architecture now provides customers the choice to deploy the industry`s leading VPN/security solution on a broad variety of platforms, be it gateways, servers or clients."

Offering support for Linux underscores one of the main characteristics of the secure virtual network (SVN) architecture - the ability to extend security easily into new operating environments.

Check Point Software solutions are available locally from Dimension Data Networking, DataSecure and EC-Hold.
