World Leader in Independent Testing Confirms
ThreatSentry Support for Microsoft’s Flagship Platform.
RED BANK, NJ – July 7th, 2004 –
Privacyware, the leader in advanced threat
prevention and security data analysis solutions, today
announced that
ThreatSentry™, its Intrusion Detection and
Prevention System for Microsoft IIS Web servers has been
Verified for Windows Server 2003 by
VeriTest®, the testing division of Lionbridge
(NASDAQ: LIOX) and the exclusive provider of independent
testing for the Microsoft Certified for Windows program.
ThreatSentry is an Intrusion Detection and Prevention
software application 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 trusted parameters. VeriTest
affirmed ThreatSentry complies with Microsoft’s rigorous
stability, compatibility and security standards for
Windows Server 2003.
“Assuring the availability of today’s ultra-connected
computing environments increasingly demands proactive
defense components, like ThreatSentry, that are not only
effective, but secure and reliable as well“, said Greg
Salvato, Chief Executive Officer for Privacyware. “The
VeriTest results underscore our dedication to developing
tools that help security professionals and
administrators better protect critical systems and that
also meet the most stringent independent standards.”
Implemented as an IIS ISAPI filter and 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 supports Microsoft Windows Server 2000/2003
and Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0/6.0
platforms. Priced at $99 per server, ThreatSentry is
available for purchase or 30-day trial download via the
Privacyware web site: http://www.privacyware.com/intrusion_prevention.html
or by contacting 732-212-8110 x235.
