Cupertino, Calif. – July 30, 2008 – ArcSight, Inc. (Nasdaq: ARST), a leading global provider of compliance and security management solutions that protect enterprises and government agencies, today announced its new PCI Logger appliance, This solution addresses merchants’ requirements for the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) in a simplified package with new analysis features.

ArcSight PCI Logger delivers the full power of the ArcSight log management and event connector architecture, combined with a full set of reports and rules that address PCI DSS requirements. In addition, ArcSight PCI Logger includes 45 new live alerts mapped to PCI DSS requirements. New with this release is the ability to perform “forensics on the fly” – drilling down from live alerts or reports to other reports, dashboards, or source events, all without running new queries. Finally, all of these functions – log management, PCI DSS rules, alerts and reports, connectors, and connector manager – are included on a single 1U appliance.

“The need for compliance has caused more organizations, often with smaller security teams and fewer support personnel, to consider SIEM,“ said David Taylor, founder of the PCI Knowledge Base. “These organizations require more pre-built functions and easier deployment. They want to address PCI DSS quickly."

“The PCI Data Security Standard has affected any organization that accepts credit cards,” said Gordon Shevlin of FishNet Security, an ArcSight channel partner. “However, for all but the largest merchants, addressing PCI DSS has been seen as a heavy burden. The new PCI Logger from ArcSight enables partners such as Fishnet to deliver comprehensive solutions to our customers in a single appliance at the right price.”

“The ArcSight SIEM Platform has long delivered industry-leading event collection, normalization, and analysis,” said Rick Caccia, vice president of product marketing, ArcSight. “This new appliance marries our log management, storage, analysis, and collection technologies on a single 1U box. This will enable our channel partners to address the mid market more easily without losing the power of forensics on the fly.”

The ArcSight Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) Platform is an integrated set of products for collecting, managing, and analyzing event log data. The products can be deployed separately or in combination to address the different needs of organizations in different industries and of different sizes. The ArcSight PCI Logger is specifically targeted at mid-size merchants that require industry-leading log management without the complexity of multiple appliances. The product is well suited for resale and support by channel partners that require a simple and fast evaluation and deployment.

ArcSight PCI Logger can store up to an effective 3.5 TB of log data. Pricing begins at $30,000.
