Lockdown Networks(R), the leading provider of Network
Access Control (NAC) solutions that ensure all users and devices on
the network comply with security policies, today announced that it has
expanded operations with the opening of its European headquarters in
the United Kingdom, and tapped Tony Caine to serve as vice president,
EMEA. Lockdown has seen significant demand for its leading Network
Access Control technology across the EMEA region from enterprises and
government agencies, and Caine has the breadth and depth of sales and
operations experience to maximize this opportunity. A proven leader
for more than 20 years, Caine brings extensive business, sales and
security technology experience to his role on Lockdown's executive
management team.
Caine joins Lockdown from Aventail Inc., where he served as vice
president EMEA and was responsible for the company's successful entry
into the EMEA security appliance market. During his tenure at
Aventail, Caine implemented a two-tier channel model across 16
countries.
Prior to Aventail, Caine was the managing director EMEA at

team based in eight countries, which successfully sold into the
largest European financial, manufacturing and telecommunications
companies, and managed more than 140 major accounts. Caine has held
senior EMEA sales and operations positions at Secure Computing,
Storage Dimensions, Eicon Technology, and Computacenter Plc. and has
proven expertise in closing multi-million dollar software license,

The company is well positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for
network access control solutions across the EMEA region, and I look
forward to bringing its unique solution to market," said Tony Caine.

they're looking for -- technology that easily integrates with other
security, endpoint and network infrastructure to provide a foundation
for enforcing and managing security policies across an enterprise."
"Tony brings with him an impressive combination of technology
sales and management experience with keen insight into driving growth
across the EMEA region," said Brett Helsel, president and CEO of
