eEye Digital Security, an expert in integrated security and threat-management solutions, today announced the general availability of Blink Server 4, an integrated protection platform for all types of Windows servers and applications.

Blink Server offers complete protection for all mission-critical servers by combining multiple-layers of server security capabilities and leverages an intrusion-prevention engine that protects against zero-day attacks including the most recent threats posed by Conficker. It also provides buffer overflow and patent-pending ActiveX protection.

“The addition of Blink Server helps round-out our product suite, which also features endpoint security and vulnerability assessment," said Chris Silva, eEye's Chief Architect and VP of Products. "We developed the solution based on the needs of our customers to enhance server security and combat threats in real-time as they migrate away from stand-alone anti-virus point solutions and adopt comprehensive endpoint management. When used along side of Blink Professional, Blink Server Edition helps them deploy a unified technology solution to both desktop and server platforms allowing for streamlined management.”

Blink Server 4 includes eEye’s SecureIIS Solution, a Web-Server Application Firewall that meets section 6 of the PCI DSS v1.2 requirements.

Blink Server further meets customer needs by thwarting 100 percent of all remote intrusion attempts on mission-critical servers such as those that host databases, financial, e-mail and Web-facing applications. Blink Server does this by providing a complete protection platform with integrated threat-management capabilities: 

Optimized rules and performance for server communications
 
File monitoring for change control and tamper monitoring
 
Application and system firewall for application communications control
 
Virus and spyware protection
 
Protocol-based intrusion prevention
 
Vulnerability assessment to meet PCI, HIPAA, SOX, GLB, and FERPA compliance
 
Patented system protection featuring Execution and Registry protection and monitoring
 
Zero-day attack protection including buffer overflow and patent-pending ActiveX protection
 
Configuration management enforcement and reporting
