10/17 | NetworkStreaming Raises $6 Million for SSL Remote Support

Summary: NetworkStreaming receives $6 million in funding to move forward with development and marketing of its remote desktop support appliance

NetworkStreaming, a start-up based in Ridgeland, Mississippi, closed $6 million in second round funding for its SSL appliance-based remote support solutions.

NetworkStreaming’s SSL appliance enables any remote PC to initiate an on-demand help desk session with full screen-sharing and remote control capabilities. The remote PC do not need to have a pre-installed client and the encrypted session works through corporate firewalls because each session is initiated by the end user. The company also offers an “AccessDeskâ„¢” product that lets network managers gain remote access to unattended servers or workstations; and a “PresentationDesk” product for online training and Web-based collaboration.

The new round of funding came from Southern Farm Bureau Life and GulfSouth Capital.
