Partnership Integrates Vulnerability Assessment and Security Information Management onto a Single Console
(ALISO VIEJO, CA) January 20, 2004 — eEye® Digital Security, a leading developer of enterprise security software, and OpenService™ (Open), the leader in enterprise security management software, today announced the integration of their security solutions to provide a comprehensive enterprise risk management platform. The combined solution allows customers to identify, understand and mitigate the risks posed by hackers, worms and viruses in real time.
With eEye’s Retina Enterprise Suite data integrated into Open’s Security Threat Manager (STM) security event management product, customers can proactively manage network vulnerabilities and improve the efficiency of security operations. STM correlates threat events, eEye vulnerability data and target asset values to clearly show which threats pose the greatest actual risk. In addition, the combination allows smarter patch management and mitigation planning by presenting all enterprise risk and vulnerability data in a single security information management console.
“The key value proposition to this partnership is the seamless integration of our award winning security scanner, Retina®, with Open Security’s Threat Manager,” said Firas Raouf, COO of eEye Digital Security. "This will help our clients address the year’s two most critical security objectives: the effective prioritization of vulnerabilities and the reduction of the time to remediate”.
Open’s STM turns deployed standalone security sensors and systems into a unified team, integrating and correlating data to deliver the industry’s most comprehensive real-time threat analysis to security analysts and frontline operators. It is the only way to link security systems to the business activities and network systems they protect. Designed for fast deployments, low ongoing maintenance costs and scalable to world-wide distributed architectures, STM automates security triage processes, finds false negatives, and identifies subtle multi-point, low and slow blended threats.
“By providing the critical contextual link for intrusion detection system (IDS) alarms, our integration with eEye’s Retina delivers greater intelligence for enterprises seeking a single view of their enterprise risks, threats and vulnerabilities” said Phil Hollows, VP Product Marketing, OpenService. “Integrating our solutions enables our clients to plan proactively, execute more efficiently, and reduce their risk using targeted threat response processes to mitigate the impact on revenue-generating business operations.”
eEye's Retina Enterprise Suite combines process and technology into a single, effective solution allowing security professionals to create and enforce security policies, perform regular audits, remediate issues, verify corrective actions, and report on the entire network threat reduction process. The eEye solution is powered by eEye’s award winning Retina® Network Security Scanner.
