  LAS VEGAS, NV, May 19 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
AirTight(R) Networks, the leading provider of wireless security and
compliance solutions, announced today at Interop 2009 the availability of
new appliances and additional functionality for its SpectraGuard(R)
Enterprise WIPS product. SpectraGuard Enterprise now supports SA-250 and
SA-350 appliances providing fail over redundancy in one appliance. With
the new appliances, SpectraGuard Enterprise provides three levels of
redundancy:


--  Standalone (offline) sensor operation
--  Two levels of hardware redundancy
    

    
"Organizations are now supporting mission critical applications on
their WLANs, which means that performance and availability are also
mission critical," said Sri Sundaralingam, Vice President of Product
Management at AirTight. "Three levels of redundancy allow administrators
to achieve five 9s of availability (under 9 hours of downtime per year)
at a lower price point. With these enhancements, customers are assured
that they are always protected even if an appliance fails or the power
goes down."

    AirTight also announced today the immediate availability of SAFE 2.7, its
end point protection product with WiMAX connectivity policy enforcement.
AirTight now provides the industry's most comprehensive agent for wireless
security policy enforcement via SAFE for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 2.5/3G, WiMAX,
and infrared.

    "AirTight continues to add the functionality our customers need as they
deal with the need to scale and secure their wireless infrastructure,
provide access to mobile workforces and address emerging security
challenges," added Sundaralingam.

    AirTight SpectraGuard Enterprise 5.9 and SAFE 2.7 are available
