Point Software Technologies has
announced the SmartEvent Software Blade, a new unified security
management solution for real-time event visibility across multiple
security systems. SmartEvent filters the mass of daily threat logs
and events, highlights critical events as they occur and gives
security administrators the ability to stop attacks straight from the
management interface.

“As the levels of sophistication and
frequency of threats continue to increase, SmartEvent provides
customers with greater visibility and superior threat control of the
risks in their IT security environments,” said Bhaskar
Bakthavatsalu, Regional Director-SAARC, Check Point Software
Technologies. “It enables customers to identify critical security
events from the mass clutter of daily events, thus enabling them to
focus on what is important.” Bakthavatsalu added.

SmartEvent correlates events from
different security solutions (firewall, IPS, DLP, endpoint,
anti-virus) presenting them in a consolidated view that highlights
critical security incidents. Events are consolidated and displayed in
a clear and concise format based on severity and frequency using
visual timelines, also known as 'the doughnut timeline view'. In
addition, the SmartEvent interface allows administrators to add
protections on-the-fly to remediate attacks quickly, such as
implementing policy changes or blocking traffic from certain sources.

Through Check Point's Software Blade
architecture, customers can easily deploy the SmartEvent Software
Blade into their existing security management, reducing deployment
time and costs. In addition, SmartEvent is also available on
dedicated Smart-1 SmartEvent appliances, turnkey, all-in-one
management solutions designed to provide comprehensive security event
analysis for mid-size and large enterprise security networks.
