FireEye

MENLO PARK, Calif.—October 23, 2007 — FireEye, Inc., the leader in global anti-botnet protection, today announced that the company has been selected as one of three finalists in the security category of the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal Emerging Technology Awards. The Emerging Technology Awards recognizes companies at the forefront of technology and celebrates those who are leading the way in innovation and entrepreneurship in the Silicon Valley.

"We are honored to be named a finalist by the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal Emerging Technology Awards," said Ashar Aziz, president and CEO of FireEye, Inc. "Being selected a finalist recognizes our team's market leading innovation in security and validates our commitment to protect consumers, service providers, and corporate networks against botnet-driven attacks. Sources estimate the number of bot-infested machines to be as high as 150 million worldwide. Because botnet infiltration is stealthy, pervasive, and persistent, traditional network defenses have been ineffective in eliminating these attacks. FireEye solves this problem by offering a complete solution that enables businesses and service providers to detect and stop bot-infection before data and resources are compromised."

The FireEye Botwall™ security appliances and FireEye Botwall Network service together provide comprehensive anti-botnet protection. FireEye Botwall appliances analyze enterprise networks for bot activities and compromised machines. The FireEye Botwall Network is a globally deployed botnet discovery and analysis service which provides subscribers with the most current botnet intelligence to complement on-premise anti-botnet security appliances. It catalogs and disseminates botnet characteristics derived from malware analyses which are conducted by interconnected networks of FireEye Botwall security appliances selectively deployed at service providers around the world. FireEye's solution offers the industry's first complete global and local anti-botnet protection to precisely identify, understand, and stop emerging botnet and malware threats.

Winners of the Emerging Technology Awards will be announced on November 1st at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, Calif.
