Press Release Summary = eEye's Retina and REM Receive EAL 2 Certification


Press Release Body = ALISO VIEJO, CA June 21, 2007 - eEye Digital Security, a
leading developer of unified client security and vulnerability management tools,
announced today that it has earned Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level (EAL)
2 certification for two of its products: Retina® Network Security Scanner and REMT
Security Management Console.

With this certificate, Common Criteria, the international standard for evaluating
security products, certifies that eEye's Retina and REM product functionality,
development environment, documentation and product testing mechanisms meet or exceed
the highest of all assurance levels defined by the international standards, ISO/IEC
15408-2 and ISO/IEC 15408-3.

"The Common Criteria certification demonstrates the dedication of our team to focus
on quality software security and vulnerability management products that meet or
exceed our customers' needs and expectations," Kamal Arafeh, eEye CEO stated.

The eEye product set, which also includes Blink® Unified Client Security, Iris®
Network Traffic Analyzer and SecureIIS® Application Firewall, provides layered,
integrated, comprehensive protection to counter today's avalanche of attacks that
would otherwise go undetected. eEye's integrated set of vulnerability management
solutions enables organizations to manage the entire lifecycle of security threats
by protecting organizations before, during, and after attacks occur.

Common Criteria
Common Criteria is an international standard for computer security that describes a
framework in which computer system customers can specify their security
requirements, vendors can then implement and/or make claims about the security
attributes of their products and testing laboratories can evaluate the products to
determine if they actually meet the claims.

By providing an independent assessment of a product's ability to meet security
standards, the Common Criteria gives customers more confidence in the security of IT
products. Security-conscious customers, such as the U.S. Federal Government, are
increasingly requiring Common Criteria certification as a determining factor in
purchasing decisions.

The international scope of the Common Criteria, currently adopted by fourteen
nations, allows users from other countries to purchase IT products with the same
level of confidence, since certification is recognized across all complying nations.

Evaluating a product with respect to security requires identification of the
customer's security needs and an assessment of the capabilities of the product. The
Common Criteria aids customers in both of these processes through two key
components: protection profiles and evaluation assurance levels. For additional
