eIQnetworks Expands Security, Risk and Audit Management Offering with New
Appliance-based Solutions
"Plug and go" SecureVue appliances enable rapid, cost-effective deployment of
enterprise-wide security, risk and audit management

    ACTON, Mass., Jan. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- eIQnetworks(R), Inc., a global
provider of integrated security, risk and audit management solutions, today
announced the expansion of its flagship SecureVue(R) product offering with the
immediate availability of two new appliance-based versions. These appliances
allow enterprises to seamlessly leverage the full benefits of the SecureVue
security, risk and audit management platform in a cost-effective hardware
solution that can be rapidly deployed.
    The appliances -- SecureVue 2000 and SecureVue 3000 -- incorporate the
comprehensive functionality of the SecureVue software platform, making
next-generation security information management (SIM) and IT governance, risk
and compliance (GRC) available in an appliance form that offers enterprises
and channel partners:
    -- Lower total cost of ownership
    -- Pre-installed software
    -- Hardened operating system
    -- Web-based setup for fast, simple installation
    -- Enhanced security and compliance

    "Our research shows that best-in-class organizations are proactively
reducing the number of silos for their security governance, risk management
and compliance initiatives," said Derek E. Brink, vice president and research
director for IT Security at Aberdeen Group. "Appliances, such as eIQ's
SecureVue, are a logical approach based on their full-featured security, risk
and audit functionality combined with the 'plug and go' simplicity of
installation and speed to deployment."
    eIQ's SecureVue 3000 Central Server has 1.8 TB storage capacity, supports
up to 15,000 events per second and provides unlimited user access. The
SecureVue 2000 Regional Server -- deployed in conjunction with the SecureVue
3000 Central Server for distributed environments -- offers 1 TB storage
capacity and supports up to 6,000 events per second.
    "Since the beginning of 2007, we have seen significant adoption of the
SecureVue security, risk and audit management platform across leading Global
2000 companies," said Vijay Basani, CEO at eIQnetworks. "The introduction of
SecureVue appliances gives our customers the option of selecting either a
hardware- or software-based solution to meet security and compliance
challenges."

strategically address evolving security and compliance challenges and improve
