Lantronix today announced its ManageLinx solution is enabling a new business model for Perinata, a recently launched IT services company. ManageLinx provides secure access to firewall-protected devices via the Internet, enabling Perinata to provide robust IT services from remote locations. This gives Perinata’s clients the advantage of quickly and easily accessing business-critical information anytime, anywhere.
“Perinata was founded to fill a gap in IT services for small businesses who often lack the funds and expertise to support a full-time IT staff or implement an expensive VPN solution,” said Dave Desmarais, President of Perinata. “Due to our executive team’s heritage working in the remote access field, and Lantronix’ expertise in remote connectivity solutions, we felt this was a perfect partnership. There is a burgeoning need for services to securely connect to remote systems and our work with Lantronix gives us competitive positioning that puts us at the forefront to provide these systems to businesses.”



Perinata’s pay-as-you-go subscription service lowers the initial cost model and provides immediate global access. The company has three core products, including Perinata con-nect, a low-cost, secure remote access subscription service with no up-front investment in hardware or configuration, or expensive IT personnel services. A key component of Perinata’s hardware and software infrastructure, ManageLinx’ communications solution enables secure remote Internet access to virtually any piece of IP-enabled equipment – even behind remote firewalls or VPNs. This ensures Perinata can manage selected equipment found at a client’s site.



ManageLinx enables users to create Virtual IP (VIP) connections between any two points on the Internet without changing the network configuration or application software using Lantronix’ patent-pending VDN technology. VDN allows administrators to restrict access to specific IP addresses, ensuring access to only predetermined devices. This is an important feature for service personnel who need to securely monitor, manage and control remote devices.



“We’re excited about working with Perinata to help them launch their new business model,” said Jerry Chase, CEO at Lantronix. “ManageLinx is ideally suited to help Perinata offer vital, first-rate IT services remotely, thereby saving their customers time and money.”
