(PRWeb) December 19, 2006 -- Dantel, Inc. the leader in network surveillance and management systems, announced today that its WebMon Edge and WebMon Matrix were selected for deployment to monitor and protect the track side assets of a major railroad operating in the northwestern United States.
"The railroad industry has recently been acknowledged for their proactive efforts in designing and implementing a comprehensive, intelligence-driven, priority based blueprint of actions designed to enhance freight rail security," said Dave Lauger, director of business development for Dantel.
