Learn How Your Network Really Works - The Evolution Of Network Management Is Eve

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM June 20, 2007 - Whitedust Labs today released an eagerly anticipated new version 1.2 of Eve (www.whitedust.net/eve/), the first software suite to model real-time network traffic in a 3D format. Eve produces stunning visualizations of traffic flow asit happens and provides network admins with an in-sight into networks never before possible.

"The latest version of Eve has some very unique features", said Eve lead developer Mark Anderson, "we have taken a large step forward in terms of network understanding with this release. The administrator can now actually see the route that packets are taking to their destination."

Network CCTV functions are also included in version 1.2 - network traffic can be logged to a database for later playback and examination. "Imagine coming into work on a Monday morning to find our you've been hacked, whats the first thing you should do? Open up Eve and scroll back the timecode to Saturday morning to see exactly what happened and when" said Jake Black, Eve developer. "CCTV for your network is a mind-blowing idea. Never before have network forsenics been so easy."

The Eve product is supported by the users in a unique approach to software development, which Whitedust have dubbed "Active Participation" whereby registered users get a vote in future development options. Democracy applied to software design has help to craft this latest release to best suit the people actually using Eve.

Also notable about this latest release is a linux and Windows versions of the 'Eve Agent' software. The Agents are designed to gather network intelligence from areas of the network which are 'blacked out', such as deptartmental subnets.
