Hifn to Showcase Secure iSCSI Appliances at FOSE 08

LOS GATOS, Calif., March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hifn(TM) (Nasdaq:
HIFN), the catalyst behind storage and networking innovation, will showcase
its Swarm(TM) secure iSCSI SAN appliances at FOSE 2008 Conference and
Exhibition, April 1-3 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in
Washington, D.C., Booth #1517N.
Hifn's Swarm appliances are the only iSCSI storage appliances available
with integrated AES256 hardware data encryption, providing a simple-to-deploy
and easy-to-use, out-of-the-box regulatory compliance solution for government
installations facing the complexity of protecting people's data and mandates
governing the retention of information. In addition, Hifn's Swarm 3000 model
was the world's first iSCSI storage appliance to feature RAID level 6, adding
an extra layer of protection against potential data loss during the longer
array rebuild times associated with high-capacity SATA drives.
Hifn's IP SAN storage system allows government users to leverage their
existing Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure and IP knowledge base to deploy a
secure IP Storage Area Network with the associated cost benefits of storage
consolidation and centralized management without the complexity penalties of
typical Fibre Channel SANs. Hifn has simplified the management of network
storage by including a complete set of storage services with every Swarm iSCSI
appliance, including data encryption, storage consolidation, snapshots, remote
replication, central management, automatic backup, and support for both iSCSI
and NAS (block and file storage) in the same appliance. Those storage
services are typically extra-cost add-ons with other storage appliances,
making the Swarm Series the most secure and best value in iSCSI storage for
government users.
Hifn's Swarm secure iSCSI appliances are available on the GSA schedule
through Promark Technology.
