By subscribing to Alert Logic’s latest solution, Threat Manager, customers add vulnerability assessment and intrusion detection to their infrastructure running on the Amazon Web Services platform. Threat Manager provides subscribers the ability to automatically aggregate and correlate anomalous behavior patterns to quickly identify threats and attacks to their network by leveraging Alert Logic’s patented expert system—which includes 7-Factor Threat Scenario Modeling, purpose-built grid computing infrastructure and API-driven provisioning capabilities.

Subscribers may also sign up for ActiveWatch, which provides 24×7 monitoring and expert guidance services from Alert Logic’s Security Operations Center, staffed by certified security analysts.

"Alert Logic’s security-as-a-service offering for Amazon Web Services is a network intrusion solution built from the ground-up to support Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) and provide this mandatory component of PCI compliance," stated Misha Govsteyn, Vice President of Emerging Products at Alert Logic.
