TriGeo Launches New Channel Program to Expand Market for Award-Winning Security Information Management Solution

TriGeo Targets Regional Resellers Specializing in Security to Gain New Mid-Market Customers for the Company's SIM Solution

TriGeo Network Security, a leading provider of security information and event management (SIEM) solutions, today announced a new Reseller Program targeting regionally based and security-centric reseller partners seeking to dramatically increase their market opportunities by carrying the award-winning TriGeo Security Information Management solution. The company will provide details on this program to interested resellers and integrators at the RSA® Conference 2007 in San Francisco.

TriGeo's Reseller Program offers a high demand product with enhanced margins for security and compliance-centric resellers. The comprehensive program provides deal registration, renewal protection, sales training and opportunities for professional services offerings.

"The Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) market is undergoing explosive growth," said Michelle Dickman, president and CEO, TriGeo Network Security. "New legal and regulatory requirements and business continuity challenges are fueling the demand for solutions that provide real network visibility both to IT personnel and to auditors."

The compliance regulations require IT organizations to demonstrate that they're monitoring network and user activity, identifying suspicious behavior and responding to alerts. The business continuity pressures recognize that network downtime can be costly, even fatal, and that rapid identification and response is critical. Both of these market drivers are well served by the implementation of an SIEM solution, and TriGeo is uniquely positioned to fill this need for mid-market organizations.

TriGeo's SIM targets mid-market companies which face the same compliance and business challenges of large enterprise networks but often without the budget or staff to accomplish this affordably. The new TriGeo Channel Program will target select regional reseller partners which have a strong track record of success marketing data security solutions. The program offers resellers product training, progressive lead generation campaigns, sales support, professional services and exceptional margins according to Craig Smith, director of TriGeo's channel sales program.

The Reseller Program will emphasize TriGeo's unique proactive network defense as a leading edge service VARs and integrators can provide their customers. The TriGeo SIM and its value-added services provide customers with a rapid-deployment, appliance-based, solution that includes over 600 pre-configured event correlation rules, and hundreds of audit-proven reports. With two consecutive years of SC Magazine Best Buy awards, a Gartner Midsize Enterprise "Best of Show" award, and multiple editor's choice awards, TriGeo's partners are getting a proven, award-winning product that SC Magazine says "is one of the few products we've tested over the years that actually lives up to its hype."

The TriGeo SIM was designed to help mid-market enterprises gain visibility into their organization's network. TriGeo's SIM is designed to help enterprises meet regulatory requirements through reporting and analysis that supports the IT security, audit and compliance functions. Real-time security incident analysis and response derived from the TriGeo SIM's automatic reporting function makes it an ideal security management tool for IT security organizations that need rapid responses to both internal and external security issues.
