LONGMONT, Colo. – April 29, 2008 – Secure Vantage Technologies, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, continues to extend solution offerings for Microsoft System Center Operations Manager Audit Collection Services (ACS) with the Audit Collection Admin and Audit Collection Syslog Gateway solutions. Built on Microsoft System Center technology, these new security auditing solutions simplify administration and ability to trace security issues in Windows-based and heterogeneous enterprises.

Secure Vantage Technologies Audit Collection Admin adds a graphical user interface to ACS, eliminating the need to administer ACS through command prompts and manual registry edits. The tool includes console administration for the general management and viewing of ACS configuration and health.

In addition to improved administration, customers can use Secure Vantage Technologies Audit Collection Syslog Gateway to forward syslog events into ACS for centralized alerting, archiving and reporting. For the first time enterprises can use System Center to centralize security analysis across Windows and Unix systems in the data center.

"Our customers and partners told us they needed an easier way to manage ACS configurations that included integration of their Unix logs too," explained Ryan Brennan, Chief Technical Officer at Secure Vantage. "Our goal with these products is to provide solutions that simplify administration and extend the power of ACS auditing to Windows-based and non-Windows-based devices alike."

"Microsoft is committed to extending the end-to-end management capabilities of System Center to support cross-platform environments," said Larry Orecklin, general manager of System Center Marketing at Microsoft Corp. "We are pleased to offer cross-platform support, which is further extended by Secure Vantage’s new Audit Collection Syslog Gateway to provide centralized security management and auditing for our mutual customers with the Secure Vantage Compliance Security Suite."

"Secure Vantage is constantly providing us new ways to reduce administrative overhead and labor costs associated with our security auditing programs. The new Audit Collection Admin and Syslog Gateway provide us two key solutions that continue to optimize our investment in System Center." said James Waldridge, Sr. IT Engineer at eTrade Financial
