Simplicity Without Sacrificing Security Integrity:

eEye offers a full-line of integrated security and threat management appliances dedicated to endpoint protection, vulnerability assessment and risk management.

	The eEye Security Management Appliance 1505 delivers pre-installed and pre-configured security and vulnerability management capabilities for eEye’s Retina Network Security Scanner, Blink Enterprise and Blink Professional Client Security agents using the integrated REM Security Management Console. This single-unit rack-mount appliance reduces the time to implement integrated vulnerability, security, and incident management capabilities for the entire enterprise.
	The Retina Security Management Appliance 651 is designed to facilitate setup and provide complete coverage for vulnerability assessment and network protection for any size network environment. The Retina Appliance 651 is ideal for both small and medium-size organizations desiring a standalone vulnerability scanner and for larger organizations looking to design a vulnerability management solution that links regional office locations. This distributed system can be controlled with REM, eEye’s central management console, to form a complete threat management solution. The solution combines eEye’s Retina Network Security Scanner, Iris Network Traffic Analyzer and Blink Professional Host-based Intrusion Prevention solution into a single appliance.
	The Blink Security Management Appliance 200 is designed to facilitate rapid deployment and provide complete endpoint protection for environments with less than 200 Windows personal computers. The Blink Appliance 200 is ideal for both small and medium-size organizations desiring a complete multi-layered managed endpoint solution in a streamlined appliance and any organization looking to perform vulnerability management using agent based host technology. This solution is optimized using REM, eEye's Security Management Console, to form a complete threat management solution from managed firewalls, anti-virus and anti-spyware, host based intrusion prevention, and vulnerability assessment through complete system protection. The solution combines all the licenses, software, and deployment packages into a single appliance solution for complete endpoint protection as a platform.

Centralized Threat and Vulnerability Management

The REM security Management Console was designed from the ground up to be a focal point for information regarding security risks within an environment. Using advanced metrics and graphical representations, assets are rated by both their vulnerabilities and attack vectors currently being exploited. Considering that an asset can move around an organization, traveling beyond the perimeter firewalls and then back again, makes identification by device, rather than just IP address, of utter importance. REM can immediately determine and illustrate where potential risks lie within an organization regardless of where the asset resides, such that security information is always aggregated to one single centralized view.

Information Management

The asset driven architecture of REM empowers users to manage data in logical groupings called attributes. Based on business functions and asset traits, such as geography, facilities, business unit, machine type, or any other custom container, users can automatically place assets into groups for reporting, filtering, and even role based security. This allows team members to view and manage security information by an asset classification at the granularity level desired. Additionally, the underlying, searchable database structure ensures the speed, accuracy, and scalability of information to deliver real time views of all assets, and integrate with call centers, network management solutions, and security information managers using scalable standards such as SNMP and Windows Event Logs. The management of information makes REM excel by reducing data overload and simplified third party integration.

Solution Flexibility

The REM security Management Console represents the state of the art in security solution management. As a software based solution, REM can be installed on existing servers within an environment using standard Microsoft Windows operating systems and databases. As an appliance, eEye delivers REM as an embedded solution on a hardened operating system with all appropriate licenses and exceptional performance. In addition, REM can be utilized as a managed service hosted by eEye. REM has the flexibility to be deployed the way you want, and managed the way your organization has set its business requirements.

Features and Benefits:

eEye integrated security and threat management appliances are designed to simplify vulnerability assessment and security management efforts and help maximize organizations' limited resources.
