Network Intelligence Selected to Present The Value of Windows Event Logging at Microsoft TechNet Webcast; Webcast Demonstrates Superior Agent-Free Technology That Collects Mission-Critical Windows Data for Compliance and Security

Business Wire, Nov 17, 2005

WESTWOOD, Mass. -- Network Intelligence(TM) Corp., the market-proven leader in transforming enterprise-wide data into automated compliance and security information, today announced that the company has been selected to present at Microsoft's TechNet Webcast on December 1, 2005. The Webcast, "Using Windows Event Logging to Enhance Compliance and Security," will present best practices for monitoring and reporting on all the event logs from Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS), Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server (ISA), Microsoft SQL Server, and the Windows platform that map directly to compliance rules and regulations.

Having accurate and automated information on logon attempt failures, account and privilege status changes, and account misuses and lockouts is best practice for network security, and crucial for compliance. Contrary to solutions that require software agents to be installed on each Microsoft server or workstation to capture the local log data, Network Intelligence's agent-free architecture enables enterprises to reliably capture all the data without the additional complexity or administrative overhead that agent-based solutions require. The agent-free implementation permits Windows-based organizations to leverage Windows' built-in digital signing to ensure log data integrity and prevent man-in-the-middle attacks.

The Microsoft TechNet Program is a series of comprehensive technical presentations and expert product demonstrations that allow IT professions to effectively evaluate and deploy leading technical solutions. For the first time, Network Intelligence's security information and event management (SIEM) solution will be presented to an audience of up to 3,000 registrants. In this TechNet presentation, attendees will learn how to:

--Alert on security threats to your Windows network and comply with regulatory requirements about Windows activity auditing.

--Increase efficiency and productivity by automating reports - without the use of agents.

--Map specific Windows compliance reports to Sarbanes Oxley, GLBA and FISMA.

--Safeguard corporate resources by identifying patterns of local logon attempt failures.

--Detect root kit installations.
