Privacyware Releases ThreatSentry™ Small Business
Edition — Neural Intrusion Detection and Prevention
System for Microsoft® IIS.
— Latest ThreatSentry edition delivers
unmatched affordability, ease-of-use, and protection
from known and unknown attacks on Windows web servers —
(Red Bank, NJ) – March 9, 2004.
Privacyware announced today the immediate availability
of ThreatSentry - Small Business Edition, an Intrusion
Detection and Prevention Software application that
protects Windows 2000/2003 web servers from an array of
documented hacking and exploitive techniques including
worms, buffer overflows, hybrid attacks and other types
of known and unknown security threats to Microsoft
Internet Information Services (IIS).
ThreatSentry is an advanced behavioral
system that combines machine and mentored learning
capabilities, a knowledge-base of documented exploits,
and an analytic model specifically designed for IIS, to
continuously collect, analyze and organize server events
into an evolving baseline of acceptable activity. Each
server connection is compared against this baseline to
identify and take action against any activity falling
outside of trusted parameters.
Implemented as an IIS ISAPI filter and
manifested as a snap-in to the Microsoft Management
Console (MMC), ThreatSentry is designed to protect
network weak points created by lapses in patch
management, configuration errors, and the use of new and
progressive attack techniques. ThreatSentry is
exceptionally easy to use, protects even un-patched
Microsoft web servers and is an ideal complement to
network and application firewalls.
ThreatSentry Small Business Edition
offers the same features and protection for IIS as the
standard version, (which supports centralized network
installation and policy management, and other features),
but is specifically geared and priced for the small
enterprise, business, or personal IIS administrator at
just $99 per server. ThreatSentry supports Windows
2000/2003 and the IIS 5.0/6.0 platforms.
“The breadth of the Microsoft web server
community is extensive, and since its introduction last
summer, ThreatSentry has earned a substantial following
among web and security administrators across most of
that spectrum,” said Privacyware CEO, Greg Salvato. “In
response to the segment of the IIS community challenged
with maintaining networks that are perhaps less complex,
but by no means less vital than those of large business,
we have introduced ThreatSentry Small Business Edition —
to ensure that its indispensable threat prevention
capabilities are within reach of any budget.”
ThreatSentry can be purchased online at
the Company’s website. A 30-day trial version, technical
white paper, and case study are also available for
