ACTON, Mass. – June 4, 2007  – eIQnetworks^®, Inc., a global provider of next-generation security information management (SIM) solutions, today announced the immediate availability of an enhanced version of its flagship SecureVue™ offering to further streamline compliance and integrate network and security operations management. With version 2.5, SecureVue consolidates, correlates and analyzes traditionally disparate IT silos of Log, Vulnerability, Configuration, Asset, Performance and NetFlow data to provide a comprehensive view of the overall security landscape.

After years of deploying multiple “best-of-breed” point solutions to meet department-specific pain points, organizations are beginning to realize that more complex data security threats and regulatory mandates require additional collaboration between network, security and compliance teams. SecureVue helps encourage interdepartmental collaboration through enhanced functionality, which includes:

• NetFlow Analytics: monitors, analyzes and reports on network traffic flow to improve availability, performance and capacity.

• Compliance Portal: delivers over 1,500 templates and combines Log, Vulnerability, Configuration, Asset, Performance and NetFlow data to meet audit requirements via specific reports for SOX, FISMA, PCI, HIPAA and GLBA mandates and CoBIT, ISO 17799 and ITIL best practices.

• Generic Parser: enables collection and analysis of syslog data from any network device, application or system.

• Automated Asset Discovery: automatically discovers assets across the enterprise to simplify time-consuming and error-prone manual processes.

• “QuickView” Insight: shows policy-based asset, configuration and vulnerability changes as well as log details and performance metrics at-a-glance to speed remediation.

• Advanced Visualization: presents multiple topology views and high-level to granular drilldowns to quickly pinpoint problems

“As compliance issues continue to escalate security to a C-level issue, organizations are exploring real-world initiatives to drive increased cooperation and communication between once separate NOC, SOC and compliance groups,” said Rich Ptak, senior enterprise security analyst at Ptak, Noel & Associates LLC. “eIQnetworks’ SecureVue goes a long way toward enabling such interdepartmental collaboration with its end-to-end correlation, compliance reporting, best practices capabilities and process automation. Implementing a unified platform like SecureVue has the potential to reduce risk while increasing operational efficiencies.”

By using SecureVue to unify security, risk and compliance management across the enterprise, organizations are able to leverage end-to-end correlation to automatically connect the dots between disparate information silos. This approach proactively detects security incidents and minimizes false positives and mean time to repair (MTTR) from days and weeks to minutes, thus speeding the overall remediation process.

“Meeting compliance requirements and implementing industry best practices are enterprise-wide issues that require collaboration between the operations and security departments,” said Vijay Basani, CEO and co-founder of eIQnetworks. “SecureVue provides an integrated data model that enables organizations to greatly streamline the data collection, analysis and reporting process to improve security, risk and compliance management.”

SecureVue 2.5 builds on the success of its inaugural release, which was introduced earlier this year and has been deployed by numerous enterprises, MSSPs (Managed Security Service Providers) and governmental institutions, including one of the world’s leading publishing companies, a leading stock exchange and multiple automotive dealerships.
