Compelling new virtual infrastructure management offerings basis for name change 

Atlanta, Georgia - November 3, 2008 - Reflecting its new leadership in virtual infrastructure management, Reflex Security today announced it has changed its company name to Reflex Systems (www.ReflexSystems.com).  The new moniker was given to more appropriately convey the award-winning comprehensive virtual infrastructure management offering that the company is now known for in addition to the virtual security appliance solution that Reflex pioneered.

Reflex Virtualization Management Center (VMC) dramatically increases the visibility, management and security of an organization's virtual infrastructure. Purpose-built on a strong security foundation, VMC provides the essential tools needed to bridge the gap between management and security in virtualized data centers. Reflex VMC provides infrastructure discovery and visualization, revision control, application/services discovery, network security, performance, lifecycle management and policy enforcement.

"Our offerings have grown to include market-driven virtual infrastructure management capabilities as the virtual computing industry has matured," said Pete Privateer, CEO of Reflex Systems. "Keeping the Reflex brand in our new name is very appropriate since, as a pioneering organization, we have not lost sight of the ability to react and innovate to swiftly meet the evolving needs of the market."

Reflex Virtualization Management Center (VMC) - Features and Benefits

As enterprise organizations begin to deploy virtualization technologies into live production data center environments, the ability to manage, secure, audit, and control virtual machines is becoming a top priority. Reflex's VMC is the industry's first virtualization management solution to combine the following key management features with the necessary security controls that enable IT administrators to visualize, proactively monitor their virtual infrastructure and enforce business and IT policies.
