Bristol, England – September 28th, 2009 - Pulsic Limited, the leader in custom design automation (CDA®), today announced that Toshiba Corporation will be extending its deployment of Pulsic tools and services in order to maximize efficiency and quality of results for the layout of their next generation Flash Memory designs.

Toshiba Corporation has already been using Pulsic’s industry-leading software for several years to automate the layout of its Flash Memory designs, increase productivity and speed time-to-market. With continual development and consistently high level of results, Pulsic’s solutions have become an established part of Toshiba’s Physical Design flow. Now, Toshiba Corporation has decided to expand its usage of the tools in recognition of the leading-edge technology, roadmap, and the quality of support that Pulsic delivers.

For advanced memory, where high speed and accurate data transmission is needed, a high-quality layout is essential. Historically, virtually no automation tools have been applied to the layout of these designs, but Pulsic has developed a unique suite of tools for custom designers that have made automation possible in many areas of the layout.

Specifically, Pulsic’s patented Spine & Stitch routing technology has delivered a great leap forward in productivity by delivering automation to the routing often found in the layout of peripheral logic for DRAM, SRAM and Flash memory - which are typically characterized by extreme aspect ratios, producing long and narrow routing footprints. The "spines" are very long and the stitches are shorter orthogonal tracks. This technology has been widely adopted by the leading memory design companies worldwide.

"We are continually looking for more layout automation for our memory designs," said Masaki Momodomi, Technology Executive for flash memory, Semiconductor Company, Toshiba Corporation. "With Pulsic, we have a partner that delivers the features, the performance and most importantly the quality of results that meets our design and performance goals. Pulsic’s technology has become an important part of our design flow."

Ken Roberts, CEO of Pulsic, added: "We are delighted with the continued success that Toshiba Corporation is experiencing with our tools. We are committed to providing them with the best automated physical design technology to meet their challenging requirements."

MPI Europe, London, 22 September 2009: MPI Europe and GigaSpaces Technologies have formed a strategic partnership that will enable financial firms to manage risk and meet the demands of low latency trading more effectively. The partnership will enable GigaSpaces to extend its reach and capability within the UK, Ireland and Scandinavia and will be a valuable addition to MPI Europe’s portfolio of specialist financial technology partners.

Today's mission-critical transaction processing systems, from electronic trading to online banking and e-commerce, are burdened with more data, more channels and more services than ever before. In addition, regulatory pressure to manage and assess risk more effectively means that speed is the key to running effective risk simulations across the enterprise. Recent benchmark tests using High Performance Computing show that firms can cost-effectively perform full-risk simulations on their portfolios in minutes rather than hours and run pre-trade scenarios in milliseconds using GigaSpaces software, alongside the latest processing technology from technology leaders such as Intel.

MPI Europe provides market knowledge, expert analysis, project management and business support within the European financial services sector and has a strong track record of matching the right technology solutions to financial business requirements.

"Working with MPI Europe will enable us to have a broader reach within Europe and provides us with valuable business and strategic expertise and a holistic approach to driving more performance through trading and risk applications," says James Liddle, UK Director for Sales & Operations at GigaSpaces. "This partnership will strengthen and speed the resolution of several key challenges to financial services companies."

John Cant, Managing Director of MPI Europe, comments: "We are looking forward to working more closely with GigaSpaces Technologies. We select our partners carefully to ensure they provide robust, efficient and scalable solutions that address key business objectives for financial organisations. GigaSpaces technology is innovative and provides the faster processing speeds that our clients are demanding, even when managing highly complex data"

Nigel Woodward, Intel Finance Industry Director, comments: "I am delighted MPI Europe and GigaSpaces are forming this alliance, which complements our existing fasterAPPS initiative with MPI Europe. GigaSpaces technology, optimised to work most effectively with the latest Intel Architecture platform, providing superior performance with exceptional stability. It provides both low latency and high throughput in a variety of applications. Combining this with MPI Europe’s business and consulting expertise is a potent mix for financial services firms."

London, 21st September 2009: Wireless Logic (www.wirelesslogic.co.uk), the UK’s leading ‘machine-to-machine’ SIM aggregator, has signed an exclusive deal with Teldat, Spanish telecommunication specialists, to provide businesses anywhere in the UK with a failsafe way of staying connected, when networks go down. Currently very few networks are fully backed-up leaving many companies, exposed to potentially expensive outages.

For the first time, UK businesses, regardless of location and size, will stay connected by plugging Teldat’s SIM-enabled 3GE signal booster into their existing fixed line networks to provide an invaluable back-up service to any company that wants to mitigate the risk of outage; whether due to damaged lines, poor regional coverage or environmental issues such as electrical storms.

This is the first time that companies will be able to fully integrate a SIM-enabled wireless back-up solution into their existing networks without the need of adding redundant equipment nor by having to replace all the existing telecommunication gear.

Under the agreement, Wireless Logic will embed its SIM technology into Teldat’s 3GE wireless signal boosters which, when network failure occurs, will activate to connect customers to Wireless Logic’s SIM-based network, guaranteeing continued performance and reliability. The Teldat booster uses Ethernet connectivity enabling the booster unit to be located anywhere within a client building away from the server room, maximising signal strength from the chosen network. Each unit is expected to be competitively priced, with highly competitive airtime monthly costs across Vodafone, O2 or Orange, making this the cheapest way to maintain connectivity and ideal for small businesses who want to stay connected without paying for expensive alternatives such as a further ADSL line or satellite back-up. It is also unlikely that users will see any discernable difference in bandwidth quality. Wireless Logic are able to upscale the back-up system through the bonding of SIMs, enabling greater data upload and download.

Philip Cole, Sales Director at Wireless Logic comments: “On average, businesses in the UK experience network connectivity failure at least twice a year. The result of this can be catastrophic; loss of productivity and, more importantly, revenue. Our partnership with Teldat means that businesses everywhere can be secure in the knowledge that they are protected, with little capital cost to their existing network infrastructure.”

Antonio Garcia Marcos, Teldat's President and CEO, says: "Network back-up solutions can be prohibitively expensive for many businesses – especially SMEs and so this solution is designed to afford businesses of all shapes and sizes a reliable way to stay connected when traditional networks fail or where the current network infrastructure is less established. Teldat’s 3G Enabler allows business users of ISDN lines to convert their main line to 3G; in this way, by adding a 3G Enabler to the current router, 3G becomes main line access at a much more economical rate.”

The downbeat prediction is just one finding of wide ranging ‘SMB economic indicator’ market research which Amplify conducted during July 2009.

When asked, with the benefit of hindsight what SMB owners would do differently if they saw the recession looming again, the majority (43%) said that they would have put a much greater emphasis on sales and marketing; whilst nearly a third (31%) said they would have cut staff quicker and deeper.

This is despite the fact that nearly half of the sample (45%) have already made some redundancies in the first half of the year: a third of respon
dents shed up to 10% of their workforce and 12% let more than 10% of their staff go. These are dramatic findings for SMB operations, averaging 27 employees, representing most sectors of the economy and based throughout the UK.
Unsurprisingly, 55% of SMB owners say their business’ success is inextricably linked to the health of the wider economy. But perhaps more worryingly, over a quarter of the sample (26%) expects their businesses to be hit after the wider economy begins its recovery. In other words now that we are moving into the latter stages of this downturn they expect to be hit the hardest.

SMBs’ sales order books took the hardest battering in Quarter 2 2009 (April-June 2009) out of the last three quarters for the largest group (38% of the sample). But 26% saw Quarter 1 2009 as the worst period of trading to date while nearly a third (31%) have seen no real fall in orders over the last nine months which is impressive.

A quarter (24%) of businesses had seen sales fall by up to 10% and a further quarter by 11-20% in the first half of 2009. A fifth of SMBs (19%) reported a drop in sales of over 20%.

That said, the majority (38%) predicted that business income falls will slow down in the next six months and over a quarter (26%) even said they felt the downward curve would stop completely by the end of the year. A tiny minority (5%) thought things would get worse through to the end of the year.

SMB owners are still not good at selling and marketing their services by their own admission. Over a fifth (21%) had no systems for collecting and managing records or staying in touch with prospects at all. Nearly half the sample (48%) relies on Excel spreadsheets or Microsoft Access databases to store and manage prospective customer records. Very few had proactive and reliable systems for keeping in touch.

The majority (43%) admitted that any systems they did have were not well integrated with Microsoft Outlook or other email systems. Face-to-face meetings and email remain the two key methods of keeping in contact with prospects (very similar to customers themselves) which indicates huge scope for efficiency as face-to-face meetings are well-known to be the most expensive method of keeping on a prospect’s radar; whilst email, because of the escalating numbers that we all receive, are not meeting with the attention they need or deserve.

However all is not lost for SMBs as nearly half (43%) are now investing in improving their websites. 57% are slashing costs to increase sales and over a third (38%) is doing more sophisticated business development work including establishing new partnerships and joint ventures.

Responding to the survey Stephen Alambritis from the Federation of Small Businesses said: “It is hugely reassuring to learn that more small firms are investing in improving their website. As the home market struggles to recover it is important that businesses appeal to international patronage. The global economy has meant the death of distance in commercial transactions and what better way to take advantage of this phenomenon than to invest in online collaboration.”

On Social Media, the majority (29%) were already seeing it as a good Business-to-Business Networking tool (e.g. LinkedIn and increasingly Twitter and Facebook). Over a quarter (26%) only saw Social Media as valuable for those selling consumer products directly to them. Nearly a fifth (19%) simply said that they did not know how to use it positively in their businesses and 17% went further to say that it was a ‘big waste of time for SMB owners’ and 10% thought it was something which was led by ‘kids with too much time on their hands.’

David Holt, director of contact management at Amplify, commented on the findings: “Although many of SMB owners’ experiences in this downturn are unique there are some common threads. Firms that have read the market well are thriving despite the economic gloom. Success is also coming from getting closer to customers and seeking more feedback, more regularly on what they want. A small number of SMBs are capitalising on some of the major shifts that are happening in the way businesses and individuals buy even the most specialist goods and services. We think many more should take the plunge.

“We argue that the heavy reliance on telesales, outbound email and face-to-face meetings must be supplemented by a mixture of internet-based ‘pull’ marketing techniques which have matured in recent years. The average SMB has more than 30 prospects at any one time, any one of which they could reasonably expect to do business with in the next six to 12 months as the gloom lifts. But what are businesses doing to foster those relationships, remind them of their credentials and capabilities and keep these vital relationships alive?

“There is no doubt that some online collaboration and social media strategies integrated with corporate websites and email can really help keep SMBs in front of their prospects and keep the lifeline of new business flowing in through tougher economic times.”

Commentary from respondents to the Amplify Survey
Supporting telephone interviews yield some of the reasoning behind the mixed picture: Kate Jerrold, director at Robert Mills Ltd, a retailer of architectural antiques found, as the economy took a turn for the worse and the pound dropped against both the US Dollar and the Japanese Yen, sales in these countries increased. The downturn has led to real growth for Robert Mills Ltd as Ms Jerrold explains: “As a small business we have not got the budget for widespread advertising or ’Push Marketing’ as it is sometimes called, we really need to ‘pull’ potential customers in our direction and we increasingly seek to do this online because its proving cheaper and more effective. This means using the right language for the search engines – so ‘architectural reclamation’ in the UK becomes ‘architectural salvage’ in the US.

“What is also noticeable is that a new generation of Japanese business people are tending to source our goods direct via the internet rather than through traditional import/export trading houses. We use eBay for some of our lower value items to push our SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) ratings and I even have a presence on social media sites MySpace and Face Book for customers that want to discuss our products and need reassurance before buying. It’s very hard to keep up with the many and various ways that customers might want to reach us but we aim to be open and intelligible through all channels – via phone, post, email, social media sites and our website. It’s a lot to keep up with.”

Paul Mizon at design company Oakbase paints a bleaker picture following a reduction in sales volumes of 30% in the last six months: “This recession will be deep and long, possibly lasting until 2013. The scale of the debts that the Government is clocking up are simply unsustainable and quantitative easing will come back to bite us until we have personally paid back this debt through higher taxes and less public spending. I predict interest rates moving back up to 5% and inflation will be running at up to 7% within 18 months, unemployment levels will rise to 3.5 million before they start to reverse. Banks will pull the plug more readily on businesses and households carrying too much debt. SMEs everywhere are bunkering down and preparing for a long haul. Cash is king for the foreseeable future.”

The only bright spot for Mr Mizon comes from the fact that larger firms are likely to review larger budgets for marketing services, dispensing with expensive fee-based suppliers and this generates opportunities for smaller suppliers to pick up some of this business.

Stephen Farbairn of builders’ merchants and horticultural supplies wholesaler based in the North West, Henry Alty Limited, explains how the recession has hit his business: “The builders’ merchants side of our business is 20% down compared to a year ago simply because smaller builders which tend to do building improvement projects in the domestic market have less work to do. The consensus in this area generally is that most construction-linked businesses are at least 10 per cent down. Larger builders that are dependent on Housing Association funding are finding it just as tough.”

Alty has avoided making redundancies by keeping its eyes and ears open for potential building projects and keeping close to its customers, generally by phone and face-to-face contact locally.

Chartered surveyors Curtis Blain, based in Pembrokeshire, Wales, decided to shift its efforts out of areas where it was likely to sustain losses (including an estate agency operation) in the downturn and instead offered its services proactively into a new sector which showed real promise locally – leisure. Allan Curtis, Director, Curtis Blain, explains: “We guessed that in a downturn many more UK residents will be holidaying in the British Isles and thus the leisure sector will be gearing up for this increased demand. We went to talk to those in charge of projects to improve leisure centres, resorts and hotels and offered to help them with conceptual design, cost analysis and planning issues. We were right. We picked up seven new leisure clients and this has been enough to generate 20% growth this year.”

Integrated technology marketing firm Mason Zimbler, unlike generalist agencies, had experienced a similar bubble in the IT market with the dot.com rollercoaster in 2001-3, and so saw the downturn coming. James Trezona, MD, said this helped them plan ways to not just survive the downturn, but come out stronger:

“Like most agencies we had been spending a significant proportion of our top peoples’ time pitching for new business. Last year we cut that close to zero and devoted all our attention to servicing our existing clients even better - creating new processes, new products and innovating to prepare for the storm. We were seeing troubled competitive agencies slashing prices and acting with short-term desperation, so all our efforts have been devoted to giving our existing clients every support in this tough time, when they had fewer internal resources, adding more value proactively than ever, behaving more responsively than ever and ultimately making ourselves indispensable to them.

“As a strategy it definitely worked. For example we work with one major IT company that slashed marketing budgets by 40% across the board but actually ended up spending more per month with us. Inevitably we have lost some clients to retrenchment, but our recession strategy has protected our revenue-base and even provided a platform for modest growth. So our people are safe and our clients are receiving the added support and Return on Investment they need in this tough market.”

MAHWAH, N.J.; September 16, 2009. Radware (NASDAQ: RDWR), the leading provider of integrated application delivery solutions for business-smart networking, today announced the release of DefensePro® 5.0, an enhanced version of its award winning intrusion prevention system (IPS) designed to protect application infrastructure against cybersecurity attacks and emerging zero-minute and non-vulnerability network threats. Leveraging a ‘booster shot’ feature, DefensePro 5.0 can accurately detect and neutralize security breaches without the risk of blocking legitimate users or bypassing the security engine during attack mitigation.

The rise in cybercrime has left many global commercial and government Websites exposed to high packet-per-second (PPS) distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks – which can cause service disruption or a complete network shut down. Although many organizations have deployed standard IPS devices, their networks remain ‘open’ to attacks, as traditional IPS solutions are designed for normal traffic inspection. When flooded by high PPS attacks, standard IPS devices become ineffective and overloaded – either dropping legitimate user traffic, or falling into full bypass mode – leaving the network vulnerable.

As part of Radware’s APSolute® Immunity security strategy, focused on fighting emerging threats targeting network bandwidth, as well as server and application resources, DefensePro 5.0 offers an advanced way to guard against vulnerabilities in the network. Leveraging a unique ‘booster shot’ architecture, DefensePro uses a dedicated hardware acceleration engine to offer DDoS attack mitigation up to 10-million PPS. This feature goes beyond current capabilities to process and inspect multi Gbps of legitimate traffic; further preventing lower volume attacks and intrusions without any network latency. With its leading architecture, DefensePro 5.0 is an ideal network security solution for eCommerce and data centre applications; delivering up to 12Gbps of full network traffic inspection and protection against server-based attacks and server intrusions.

“Traditional IPS offerings have a blind spot. Sometimes, it fails to mitigate a relatively simple attack where malware floods a website causing the servers to become overloaded due to the influx of traffic,” said Charles Kolodgy, research director, IDC's Security Products service. “Radware’s DefensePro 5.0 eliminates the blind spot by adding the DoS (denial of service) mitigator hardware acceleration engine. This is an interesting approach from Radware, further strengthening its position and reach in the network security market.”

The business values to be achieved from the new version of DefensePro include:

• Business Continuity – DefensePro 5.0 goes beyond traditional IPS network devices to maintain excellent legitimate user response time even when under attack, by blocking high-volume PPS attacks that could potentially compromise network and security resources.
• CAPEX Reductions – With DefensePro 5.0, organizations gain the benefit of two solutions (IPS and DoS mitigation) in one box, lowering both the overall costs associated with deploying two network security solutions and reducing CAPEX as companies can save on the need for extra network and security equipment to process unwanted traffic. Additionally, offered in a pay-as-you-grow on-demand license scheme, DefensePro 5.0 offers investment protection, allowing business to scale network and security capacity based on business requirements.
• OPEX Reductions – DefensePro 5.0 offers automatic real-time signatures, enabling organizations to save on redundant operational expenses, such as renting content delivery networks (CDN) when under attack. Additionally, with its enhanced architecture, DefensePro 5.0 allows companies to lower network capacity strain and gain better control over network security and resource management – as it blocks high-volume attacks that traditionally overuse CPU resources that could potentially bring down an organization’s network.

“With more business communications and transactions going online, organizations must look to protect Web-based assets against security threats that can significantly reduce productivity or cripple the network. Even with a standard IPS deployed, many organizations aren’t properly equipped to inspect the full range of traffic necessary to keep today’s hackers at bay,” said Avi Chesla, Vice President of Security Products, Radware.

“DefensePro 5.0 was designed to eliminate this weakness that hackers know, but customers might not. As DefensePro 5.0 offers both required solutions in one – IPS and DoS mitigation – customers can analyze both legitimate traffic as well as potential anomalies in less than a second, and immediately apply the right protection mechanism without comprising user experience or network resiliency.”

DefensePro 5.0 is available on the OnDemand Switch 3S1 and 3S2 for models x412, ranging from 4Gbps to 12Gbps. DefensePro network security solutions are part of the Company’s Business-Smart Data Centre strategy, which is based on an approach to offer a range of innovative capabilities inclusive of pay-as-you-grow procurement models and a series of compelling ‘on demand’ platforms.

LONDON, UK; September 9, 2009. - Radware (NASDAQ: RDWR), the leading provider of integrated application delivery solutions for business-smart networking, announced today that Financial Express, the largest distributor of fund data in the UK, has successfully completed the deployment of a new generation of Radware network and application security devices to protect two UK data centres.

Financial Express has successfully installed Radware DefensePro appliances to complement its existing Radware application delivery systems. With growing demand for web-based fund analysis services Financial Express needed high throughput real-time intrusion prevention and DoS protection to guarantee continued high availability and secure service provision to its customers.

Financial Express traffic had doubled over the past two years, from 8Mb/s to 16 Mb/s and is increasing. It was essential that the company continue to achieve a high level of security without adding latency to client requests.

Having had a positive experience with Radware application delivery appliances in the past, DefensePro was included in a full evaluation in a simulated environment against its direct competitors. Against a wide range of simulated attacks DefensePro delivered.

“DefensePro worked as promised, it was able to successfully block all the simulated attacks. It passed all of the tests.” says Michael Paul, head of IT operations for Financial Express, “None of the competition that we evaluated delivered the same features, or comparable throughput, at the same price point.”

The ability to perform intrusion prevention on all inbound traffic and configure custom signatures to work in conjunction with DefensePro's behavioural analysis, which defends against zero minute attacks, were key considerations for security.
 
“With DefensePro we can perform maintenance work including configuration changes on a live device that inspects traffic for attacks risking traffic loss,” Paul says. “This is achieved thanks to a built-in bypass functionality (fail-open) that assures uninterrupted traffic through the device even under maintenance or when device reboots.”

Radware worked closely with Financial Express throughout the testing and deployment of all the company's Radware devices, Paul comments, “There were occasions where we needed support with detailed configuration, when we did, Radware took a personal approach and got involved with the issue until it was solved. This gives me great confidence to carry on the business relationship.”

“Extensive testing demonstrated that Radware DefensePro can deliver the security that Financial Express need, with no compromise on the speed and level of service that they deliver for their customers now, or as traffic rises,” said Rani Kreiner, Account Manager Scotland & Ireland, Radware. “I am delighted that once more the combination of our technology and support have won the trust of Financial Express for their mission critical web services.”

Financial Express is the largest distributor of fund data in the UK, and is the main or sole supplier of data to many UK fund management companies. Its data is also distributed to the leading data vendors, including Thomson Financial, Bloomberg, Reuters, and Telekurs. Financial Express also provides data to the UK’s leading fund supermarkets, wrap platforms, product providers, financial advisers and networks, software houses, financial portals and investors.
