Red Herring Honors eIQnetworks as One of the Best 200 Private Technology Companies Around the World
A finalist for the Red Herring Global 100 Award Program, Company Enables Customers To React Faster to IT Threats With Solution that Correlates More Than Just Log Data
ACTON, Mass.– December 29, 2008 – eIQnetworks®,
Inc., the company redefining security and compliance
management, today announced that the Red Herring Global
100 Award program selected the company as a one of 200
finalists for 2008. The Red Herring editorial team
picked eIQnetworks based on financial performance, innovation,
management, global strategy and ecosystem integration.
eIQnetworks earlier this year won the Red Herring 100
North America award, which qualified the company for the
Red Herring Global 100 Award program. Red Herring
100 winners and finalists from North America, Europe and Asia
during the last three years are eligible for the global award.
“Red Herring’s repeated recognition of eIQnetworks’
market leadership demonstrates how we are reacting faster to
our customers and are enabling them to react faster to
emerging IT security threats and ongoing compliance mandates,”
said Jim Geary, president of eIQnetworks. “The landslide of
praise indicates that our solutions target a growing need
while delivering a return on investment, which is critical in
this uncertain global economy.”
eIQnetworks offers SecureVue®, the only security
and compliance management solution on the market that goes
beyond correlating just log data by including asset,
performance, configuration and flow data sources as well. Many
competitive solutions are limited by the types of data they
correlate, and they require agents and cumbersome database
infrastructure to run, contributing to long deployment cycles
and costly operations.
SecureVue offers “situational awareness,” or an understanding
of a company’s enterprise security posture based on a wide
variety of data. This information is presented through a
single solution without third-party reporting products,
reducing cost and removing the “swivel chair” otherwise needed
to juggle multiple systems monitoring multiple data sources.
“Log data is not enough to protect a company from emerging IT
security threats, and by painting a clearer picture with
information well beyond just log data, eIQnetworks solutions
eliminate the need for other products and streamline reporting
for regulatory compliance,” said Geary. “When we’re evaluated
against the competition, SecureVue provides our customers a
far more comprehensive real-time look at what’s happening
across the enterprise, enabling them to identify threats log
data alone cannot see.”
The Red Herring honor is the latest in a growing list
of accolades for eIQnetworks. Earlier this year, Redmond
Magazine named SecureVue the “Product Roundup Champion” in
a group review of IT compliance solutions.
