Best Execution of a Midmarket IT Solution

Wins Showcase TriGeo's Consistent Commitment to Helping Midmarket Enterprises Safeguard Their Networks from Internal and External Threats

POST FALLS, Idaho (Sept. 23, 2009) -- TriGeo Network Security, the leading provider of security information and event management (SIEM) technology for midmarket enterprises, today announced that attendees at the Midsize Enterprise Summit West™ presented the company with 'Best of Show' and 'Best Execution of a Midmarket IT Solution' honors. This marks the fourth consecutive summit that TriGeo has been named 'Best of Show' and highlights the company's commitment to developing security technology that complements and extends midmarket IT departments.

The Midmarket Innovation Awards are the only awards in the channel that are voted on solely by the attending decision-makers who directly influence their customers' technology purchases. More than 300 CIO's representing a quarter of a billion dollars in IT spending attended this year's Midsize Enterprise Summit West. TriGeo has won five industry awards in 2009, including the widely recognized SC Magazine accolade for 'Best Small to Medium Sized Enterprise (SME) Security Solution'.

"Midmarket organizations have just as big a target on their backs as larger enterprises, but they have a quarter of the resources to dedicate to protection," said Michelle Dickman, president and CEO of TriGeo Network Security. "We know that we can't be everything to everyone, which is why we designed our solution to fit the unique needs of midmarket IT departments and to take action when a threat is detected."

Delivered as a fully configured appliance, TriGeo SIM supports hundreds of network devices, comes stocked with more than 650 security and network monitoring rules, and more than 240 pre-built reports for compliance and network analysis. The solution goes far beyond simple log management, providing real-time log analysis to identify network attacks and policy violations as they happen and initiate proactive responses such as quarantining, blocking, USB defense and controlling processes, accounts and privileges. All of this is available at a price starting below $20,000. The company has hundreds of customers across financial services, retail, healthcare, education, government, utility and media/entertainment.
