Network Alchemy

Network Alchemy, Inc. was a Santa Cruz, California networking-security company backed by Trinity Ventures that developed non-stop IP infrastructure for secure private communications, commerce and collaboration. It marketed what it described as the industry's first secure IP clustered networking (IPsec/VPN) solution, delivering scalability, high availability and price/performance with no single point of failure. The company was acquired by Nokia in February 2000 and its products were folded into Nokia's network-security line. It is a defunct dot-com-era entity with no active website, developer portal, or public API surface; this profile is retained as a historical Trinity Ventures portfolio record. Enrichment found no live API artifacts to harvest.

Network Alchemy is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Security, Networking, VPN, and IPsec.
