Company Description

Q-Net Security (QNS) secures critical infrastructure and the networks that run them. QNS delivers the strongest commercially available endpoint security solution and focuses on network intrusion prevention. Our devices and are now protecting regions of the national electrical grid; we are beginning to secure financial networks, including ATM networks; and providing factory-floor protection of Industrial Control Systems. These products are engineered from immutable, purpose-built hardware and do not use any operating systems or vulnerable software; they are provably-secure as they can't be changed or respond to malware. The drop-in secure network overlay has attributes that might be characterized as a distributed firewall together with sessionless VPN tunnels providing fine-grained network micro-segmentation. These devices deliver remarkably strong security yet are easy to implement with unified endpoint management, without endpoint or network modifications, and never need to be updated or patched once deployed.
