(ALISO VIEJO, CA) July 6th, 2000 — eEye Digital Security announces Iris™, a revolutionary network analyzer that shows what is passing through your network pipes with a simple push of a button. Iris is ingeniously designed to help IT personnel proactively monitor their organizations network. Unlike other network analyzers, Iris has advanced, integrated technology that allows it to reconstruct network traffic in a format that is simple to use and understand.

Iris, now available in a beta format, is a next-generation network protocol analyzer that allows the network administrator to capture and retrace the steps of any network user with never before seen ease. By monitoring both incoming and outgoing network traffic, Iris functions as a complete systems management watchdog.

If an attacker plots an intrusion against an organizations network, in most situations the firewall will inform the network administrator. However, the evidence of such an attack is incomplete and difficult to decipher. Iris will capture the evidence of network intrusions, literally reconstructing every keystroke and movement. Dissecting that critical information with Iris is simple and efficient, saving IT personnel valuable time.

With a push of a button, an administrator can “sniff” detailed information concerning the activities of its network users. Using Iris, the network administrator can set-up automated screens to monitor the web-browsing patterns of their organizations personnel to determine if company security or intellectual property is being compromised. The confidence Iris instills in an organizations network security will ultimately lead to decreased network down time and increased IT focus. Iris™ is available for download in a beta format at www.eEye.com/Iris.
