Jun 22, 2009 -- Open source innovator and Snort(R) creator, Sourcefire, Inc. (NASDAQ: FIRE), a leader in Cyber Security, today announced that the company is expanding its training curriculum. To support the demand from its customer base and the worldwide Snort community, Sourcefire(R) has added two new classes: "Best Practices Rule Writing Workshop" and "The Fundamentals of Exploit Development," designed to provide attendees with advanced skills for understanding and protecting against attacks.

-- Best Practices Rule Writing Workshop focuses exclusively on the Snort rules language and rule writing, providing attendees with tips and techniques for protecting critical assets from today's dynamic threats. This course is ideal for both Sourcefire 3D(R) and Snort users.

-- The Fundamentals of Exploit Development takes the beginner from zero knowledge to exploitation development, explaining all the necessary science and implementation techniques, so that a security professional can better understand what they are defending against. Taught by industry-leading Sourcefire Vulnerability Research Team(TM) (VRT), this class provides attendees with unique insights into the emerging threats impacting their networks.

"Technology alone can never protect organizations from the threats they face everyday. If its security initiatives are going to succeed, it requires well trained and capable professionals," said Karen Paulson, Vice President of Education Services at Sourcefire. "The new Sourcefire courses complement our already extensive curriculum and provide Sourcefire and Snort users with the tools they need to truly protect their organizations' networks."

In addition to the new courses, Sourcefire provides a path for interested candidates to distinguish themselves through a certification program. Certification can be achieved on both Sourcefire products and open source Snort, including an expert-level exam for those professionals who want to obtain certification on both technologies.

The Sourcefire Guarantee:

Sourcefire offers one of the most aggressive training guarantees in the industry with three ways for customers and attendees to protect their investments:

-- Student Guarantee: Students may retake the same class/version once within 6 months of the original class attended at no extra charge.

-- Turnover Guarantee: Any company that enrolls an employee in a Sourcefire class, who then leaves the company within 60 days of the original class date, may enroll one additional employee in the same class/version within 6 months of the original student's class at no extra charge.

-- Certification Guarantee: If a student doesn't pass the certification exam on the first attempt, they are guaranteed a second attempt within the original 60 day subscription period.

Jun 22, 2009 -- Interactive Intelligence (NASDAQ: ININ), a global provider of unified IP business communications solutions, is introducing a new communications-based process automation product called Interaction Process Automation(TM) (IPA).

IPA is designed to reduce costs and provide a quantifiable return on investment for unified communications by automating processes that are far more efficient than their manual counterparts, enabling companies to accomplish more with fewer required resources.

"IPA is a completely new approach to process automation," said Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO, Dr. Donald E. Brown. "We've taken mature communications technology and applied it to the broader area of business process automation. IPA helps organizations increase efficiencies and cut costs by decreasing the number of employees and the amount of time involved in a given business process; by eliminating process latency; by reducing the chance for human error; and by providing standardized methods for handling business processes."

Interactive Intelligence developed IPA as an alternative to traditionally complex process management suites and tool-kits, which require extensive professional services, costly custom programming, and lengthy implementation cycles. The company has leveraged its IP-based unified communications platform to orchestrate the delivery of work, and give organizations everything they need to capture, prioritize, route, escalate and track each step of a business process.

Core Interactive Intelligence UC platform functionality adapted for process automation includes the following:

-- Contact center-style queuing and routing are used for accurate and flexible prioritization and distribution of process work.

-- Enterprise presence becomes "process presence," indicating availability for a work assignment and speeding processing time.

-- Automated escalation functionality ensures that service level goals are met.

-- Recording becomes an essential part of compliance for business processes.

-- Real-time monitoring provides management visibility into every step of the work process.

-- End-to-end reporting delivers the ability to manage and measure each process attribute.

-- VoIP provides complete location-independence, enabling employees to participate in businesses processes from anywhere in the world.

The link between business process automation and unified communications is evident as shown in a recent survey of CIOs and IT leaders conducted by IDG Research in conjunction with CIO magazine. The results showed that 87 percent of respondents saw a clear relationship between UC and business process automation, with 50 percent stating that they believed communications technology could effectively be used to automate business processes.

IPA targets mid-size to large organizations across all industries that require the automation of multi-step, people-centric business processes. Examples include new employee on-boarding, lead management, insurance claims processing, loan application management, new student enrollment, requests for government services, order discount approvals, and many others.

IPA will be distributed through select Interactive Intelligence certified resellers and through the company's direct sales force.

IPA is planned for general availability worldwide in Q4 2009.

Jun 22, 2009 -- Pegasystems (NASDAQ: PEGA), the leader in business process management (BPM) software solutions, today announced a series of new, unique software capabilities to help companies interact with their customers far more intelligently and efficiently than they could with traditional customer relationship management (CRM) or Web portal technologies.

As part of a new release of its Customer Process Manager(TM) (CPM) solution framework, Pegasystems added "adaptive intelligence" to dynamically capture and remember customer behavior. The system learns from customers who call or communicate requests and can proactively suggest the course of action to increase the probability of customer satisfaction. In addition, customer experience managers can track and visually map key "moments of truth," the points at which long term loyalty is either achieved or lost.

Pegasystems CPM enables organizations to lower the overall cost of service and grow market share by automating many of the manual tasks that are currently taking place in today's customer service organizations. Additional innovations that Pegasystems introduced include expanding knowledge management tools to bring the right document, Web page or help file to the customer service representatives' (CSRs) desktop when it is needed, avoiding distracting and time consuming searches.

In today's environment, rapid deployment is essential as companies respond to new customer service improvement opportunities and government mandates. To help improve on its already industry-leading speed of deployment, Pegasystems added accelerated computer telephony integration (CTI) to enable core functionality in less than one hour. The new release also features a real-time benefits calculator so that companies can monitor and measure business benefits gained.

"Pegasystems, one of the early entrants in the business process management (BPM) tool market, has a strong offering for organizations looking to automate customer service processes," wrote Natalie Petouhoff, Ph.D., Senior Analyst at Forrester Research in the October 2008 report The Forrester Wave(TM): Customer Service Software Solutions, Q4 2008. "Pegasystems' strategy is to provide the process-centric CRM market with solutions and methodologies that enable business agility and deliver significant gains in growth, productivity, and retention."( 1)

"With this version of CPM, we continue to help companies address their most important goals in these times -- improving the customer experience while reducing the cost of service," said Amy Bethke, senior director of customer process management solutions at Pegasystems. "Because it's based on Pegasystems' patented Build for Change technology, the solution can dynamically adapt customer processes based on the situation, customer criteria and persona, and business goals, which ensure customers get the most effective level of service, and CSRs attain higher productivity."
