To find out more about the Arula Certified Distributor Network, go to www.arula.com/partner.htm The Arula Universal Agent Platform Arula has taken a radically new approach to providing remote device management agents. Rather than providing individual agent platforms, Arula has developed a universal agent platform that enables companies to rapidly deploy agent solutions for any device in their remote offices. The Arula Universal Agent Platform contains all the common things any agent would need such as connectivity, logic, and security. The Arula Universal Agent Platform thus enables development of hardware and software management solutions that allow any type of electronic device to be rapidly and securely controlled from any Web browser. It provides a robust environment for implementing strong security encryption, like secure socket layer (SSL). To develop a specific agent is then an easy task for Arula, any 3rd-party, or the customer, because only the device-specific logic needs to be added. As a result, companies can easily extend the Arula Universal Agent Platform to any devices in a simple and economical way. The Arula Product Suite Three products make up the current Arula product suite: Arula SecureConsoleSSL – the first product from Arula, SecureConsoleSSL allows any IT manager to plug a device into it, and the securely manage it from his base of operations. SecureConsole provides remote console access, multi-user capabilities, and adds Secure Socket Layer (SSL) with 128-bit encryption. Arula Cerebus x8 - the newest addition to the Arula product suite, it provides the same level of security as the SecureConsoleSSL, but is capable of managing up to eight devices in a rack mountable 2U chassis. Cerebus x8 has been designed with the data center in mind. About Arula Systems, Inc.
