Press Release Body = ALISO VIEJO, Calif., July 2, 2007 - Seeking to expand into the
small to mid-size business market by offering affordable security tools, eEye
Digital Security® today announced it will begin offering its Retina® Network
Security Scanner, the industry standard for vulnerability discovery and
vulnerability assessment, at a substantial reduction in price of greater than 50
percent, or $18 per scanned IP address. The move reflects the company's plans to
augment its focus on enterprise accounts to include the broader market of SMB
organizations.

"Vulnerability Assessment technology used to be reserved for the elite in the
market," said Sean Martin, eEye Marketing Director. "Yet smaller organizations can
also benefit from protecting their networks from common exploits and
vulnerabilities. We're committed to making scanner tools available to companies of
any size by making it more affordable."

Retina detects and identifies known and recently identified network security
vulnerabilities and assists in prioritizing the threats for remediation. The
award-winning vulnerability management scanner is capable of scanning an entire
Class C network of devices, operating systems and applications in approximately 15
minutes. Once the scope of the network is analyzed, the scanner pinpoints
vulnerabilities, policy exceptions and operating system, application, and
configuration flaws. With Retina's speed, accuracy and non-intrusive scanning, the
most complex computing environments can be secured against the most recent of
discovered vulnerabilities.

Users can also leverage Retina for security risk assessment, project risk management
and for enforcing standards-based registry settings through custom policy audits.
Retina is considered the easiest scanner to use since the majority of its scans can
be conducted remotely without administrator rights. This also makes it the most
cost-effective to deploy and use.

In addition to its vulnerability assessment and risk management capabilities, Retina
helps businesses identify and simplify their corporate and regulatory requirements.
Retina implements policy-driven scans enabling internal security audits and ensuring
configuration requirements are enforced. Custom scans help organizations comply with
pertinent regulatory requirements, such as SOX, HIPAA, GLBA, PCI and others
