FEATURE STORY:

8 Additional Information Security Products/Services Now Registered as
Officially "CVE-Compatible"

Eight information security products and services from seven
organizations are the latest to achieve the final stage of MITRE's
formal CVE Compatibility Process and are now officially
"CVE-compatible." Each product is now eligible to use the CVE-Compatible
Product/Service logo, and their completed and reviewed "CVE
Compatibility Requirements Evaluation" questionnaires are posted as part
of their product listings on the CVE-Compatible Products and Services
page on the CVE Web site. A total of 60 products to-date have been
declared officially compatible.

The following products are now registered as officially
"CVE-Compatible":

CA
- eTrust Vulnerability Manager

DragonSoft Security Associates, Inc.
- DragonSoft Vulnerability Database

Information Risk Management Plc
- Security Risk Assessment

NetClarity
- NetClarity Analyst and Update Service

NSFOCUS Information Technology Co., Ltd.
- AURORA RSAS
- ICEYE NIDS

ThreatGuard, Inc.
- ThreatGuard Traveler

Venus Information Technology, Inc.
- Cybervision Vulnerability Assessment and Management System

Use of the official CVE-Compatible logo by these organizations will
allow system administrators and other security professionals to look for
the logo when adopting vulnerability management products and services
for their enterprises. The compatibility process questionnaires will
help end-users compare how different products satisfy the CVE
compatibility requirements, and therefore which specific implementations
are best for their networks and systems.

CVE Compatibility certificates were awarded on Tuesday, February 14,
2006 at "RSA Conference 2006" in San Jose, CA, USA, to the organizations
that have achieved this final phase. The certificates were presented to
all seven organizations, including CA; DragonSoft Security Associates,
Inc.; Information Risk Management Plc; NetClarity; NSFOCUS Information
Technology Co., Ltd.; ThreatGuard, Inc.; and Venus Information
Technology, Inc.

products and services listed, visit the CVE Compatibility Process and
