eEye extends Research services to include elite penetration testing service that will be available for 25 percent off through April 30, 2009

(Irvine, CA) March 9, 2009 — eEye Digital Security (www.eeye.com) , an expert in integrated security and threat-management solutions, today announced that they have expanded a previously private offering known as AMP, the Any Means Possible penetration testing service. As more and more security companies attempt to offer their version of penetration-testing services, the true value of these services has diminished into little more than standard “scan-and-report” services.

The AMP offering utilizes the expertise and unique skill set of eEye researchers in order to emulate real-world attacks against an organization. This process provides private and public organizations with a real-world defense exercise that allows them to assess their security posture against a well-equipped and advanced attacker team that has targeted their mission-critical data or systems.

eEye Digital Security will be offering its Any Means Possible Penetration Testing Services at 25 percent off the retail price for all purchases made from March 9 through April 30, 2009.

“eEye Research has been performing these engagements for years as part of our private security intelligence service Preview,” said eEye Research Director Andre Derek Protas. “The eEye Research Team has seen the penetration market dwindle down to a simple vulnerability scanning service that operates under a penetration testing name. Most companies understand that they have critical data or systems that, if successfully compromised by an attack team, could result in substantial losses to the company. Our AMP methodology is designed specifically to test the security mechanisms put into place to protect that data by emulating real-world attack scenarios, giving customers actionable data to use for business decisions.”

This offering extends the previous eEye Research offerings of Security Intelligence (eEye Preview) and Custom Research Consulting engagements.
