AUSTIN, Texas--(EON:Enhanced Online News)--Mirage Networks, developer of patented, full-cycle Network Access Control (NAC) technology, today announced that it is the recipient of the 2008 Frost & Sullivan Best Entrepreneurial Company Award. The award is presented annually to the company with fewer than 300 employees showing the highest achievement in innovative product development, strategic business development and focused market strategy.

“Mirage Networks delivers on what customers are demanding: a complete, end-to-end, agentless, solution that is easy to deploy and maintain.”

“NAC technology is increasing in popularity with customers, and Mirage Networks is quickly gaining market share within this booming market,” said Chris Rodriguez, research analyst for Frost & Sullivan. “Mirage Networks delivers on what customers are demanding: a complete, end-to-end, agentless, solution that is easy to deploy and maintain.”

According to Frost & Sullivan, analysts compare market participants and measure performance through in-depth interviews, analysis, and extensive secondary research in order to identify award recipients. The Best Entrepreneurial Company Award signifies Mirage’s identification of a unique and revolutionary product solution with significant market potential. Additionally, the award certifies that the company's marketing strategy is sound and poised for success.

The award attributed Mirage’s key relationships with IBM/ISS, AT&T, and strategic partners in foreign markets as integral causes of the strong growth Mirage experienced in 2007. Frost & Sullivan expects Mirage will continue to increase its share of a network access control market that will achieve revenues of $530 million within 2-5 years.

“We are deeply honored to be selected for this prestigious award,” said Greg Stock, President and CEO of Mirage Networks. “Unsolicited recognition like this from such a highly respected growth partnership company further validates not only the Mirage technology, but also our overall strength and leadership in the security space.”

Mirage’s NAC solution enables maximum network performance by controlling network access, isolating non-compliant and threatening endpoints, and providing self-remediation capabilities. Mirage’s network-based solution is the easiest NAC solution to deploy, as it requires no agent software, deploys virtually inline, and works in any network environment.

Mirage solutions are made available through Authorized ChannelFirst Partners and can also be delivered as a managed service.
