Altor Networks, Inc.

Altor Networks offers the first virtual firewall that is purpose-built for production-oriented virtualized environments. The company’s initial product line includes the industry’s first-ever purpose-built virtual firewall, a software security appliance that runs in a virtualized environment and enforces security policy on a per virtual machine basis. Altor provides customers with unprecedented visibility into and granular control over virtual network traffic with award-winning technology. Purpose-built for virtual environments, the Altor VF virtual firewall dramatically improves the security of virtual servers in data centers and operational agility, and reduces administrative overhead. Founded in 2007 by security and networking experts from Check Point Software, Cisco and Oracle, Altor Networks is funded by Accel Partners and Foundation Capital and is headquartered in Redwood City, California.

Products & Services

Altor Networks' Altor VF virtual firewall delivers real-time visibility, troubleshooting and analysis of ongoing virtual network activity. Unlike physical network security and monitoring solutions that detect only activity on physical networks, the Altor VF detects and analyzes virtual network traffic to troubleshoot problems, baseline network activity, audit for inappropriate protocols, and surface anomalies. With the Altor VF, data center administrators can keep their virtual networks running smoothly, gain insight into virtual network activity, develop and apply compliance-related security policies. Altor VF is purpose-built to meet the unique security challenges of the virtual environment. Administrators can now control the virtual network by enforcing a rule-based policy for each VM. Because the Altor VF was designed with virtualization features in mind, it synchronizes automatically with VMware's VirtualCenter and secures VMotion - migrating connections and policy of VMs.
