June 7, 2007; 01:37 AM

Promisec™ Ltd, a technology leader in clientless endpoint security management with the industry’s first agentless monitoring and remediation solution that supports layered internal security management, today announced its designation as one of CRN’s Emerging Technology leaders for its Spectator Professional software. This award acknowledges Promisec’s position as a foremost provider of cutting edge, emerging technology in internal network security software. With Spectator Professional, Promisec offers the industry’s first -- and only -- agentless endpoint security management solution to automate remediation capabilities and provide comprehensive insight into endpoint behavior and policy compliance. Out of 163 technology vendors designated as Emerging Technology leaders, Promisec received billing in the ‘Top 50.’

According to CRN, “They have far superior technology, more robust margins and uncompromising technical support. They are the CRN Emerging Tech Dynamos and they're reshaping the information technology industry, solution providers say, by handily beating established vendors in head-to-head product, margin, technical support and field engagement comparisons.”

“It's not even close. Solution providers say the Emerging Tech Dynamos are blowing away the big boys on all those fronts and more. And they are doing it in greater numbers,” proclaimed the publication. Emerging vendors concentrating on security were in the third most popular sector surveyed.

Spectator Professional™ software delivers the most advanced level of protection over network endpoints, including servers, workstations, desktops and other network computing systems. The software’s centralized endpoint security and management of third-party security applications ensures the integrity of data that is mission critical to business continuity.

“This honor is additional validation that Promisec’s Spectator Professional software is setting the bar for leading corporate internal network security,” said Promisec’s CEO, Amir Kotler. “Our research has shown that ease-of-use and a comprehensive feature set are key to satisfying customer demands – this dovetails the Promisec offering, allowing us to stay ahead of the curve. This recognition also showcases our value to security product resellers who are called on by their customers to provide the industry’s strongest security solutions.”

About Promisec Spectator Professional
Promisec Spectator Professional provides small and medium businesses (SMBs) with a complete security solution that protects against threats originating within the network. Attacks may be caused by the organization’s users, business partners or by technical mis-configuration. This software-only solution is normally installed on an administrator’s desktop or on a dedicated server in the SOC/NOC (Security/Network Operations Center).

Promisec Spectator Professional works seamlessly with existing gateway security solutions that enhance and complement each other and with third party desktop security agents in order to provide total security for both the network perimeter and the internal organization.  With detection, repair, prevention and monitoring modules, Promisec Spectator Professional delivers a comprehensive solution to manage security on all organization network endpoints and servers. Promisec Spectator Professional identifies threats that have bypassed gateway or desktop security systems and embedded themselves in the network - rogue access points, USB devices or any other peripheral added to any network endpoint or server, and unauthorized processes or applications. Leveraging remote remediation technology from a centralized management console, Promisec Spectator Professional enables security administrators to remotely kill harmful processes, remove unauthorized applications or commands and reverse dangerous registry changes, either automatically or manually from their own workstation.
