Put this 1U security appliance in your small business's equipment rack and you may worry about your budget, but not about your security.

From an attacker's perspective, a client endpoint system is a viable path of attack into a company. Therefore, the ability to defend these systems and the ability to centrally manage and monitor their defenses are important components of any network defense strategy. eEye's Blink wins the Network World Clear Choice designation because of its solid reporting and hybrid approach to client defense.
