Conventus Nominated for 2014 Chicago Innovation Awards

CHICAGO, Aug. 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Conventus (www.conventus-sei.com), a national information technology solutions provider, has been selected as one of 550 nominees for the 2014 Chicago Innovation Awards, and is one of 150 nominees to advance to round two. Conventus has been highlighted for SOLVE, the company's unique security reporting platform.

Since 2002 the Chicago Innovation Awards has highlighted the most groundbreaking products and services in the Midwest. Nominees comprise all industries and sizes; they represent the broad spectrum that reflects Chicago's diverse business landscape. Over the years, it has grown to become the largest celebration of innovation in the Chicago area.

Conventus was nominated for its unique SOLVE (Simple On-Line Visualization Engine) reporting platform, a cutting-edge technology that helps IT teams see security clues before a breach. Unlike other popular data visualization products, SOLVE works in real time and uses actionable data to fight against potential breaches. Built by security professionals for security professionals, this allows its developers to anticipate, understand and change the software to fit today's ever-evolving security landscape.

"We are thrilled to be nominated for SOLVE," said Alex Moss, Conventus Co-Founder. "At Conventus, we understand that today's companies deal with mountains of data from disparate systems. Traditional management consoles are designed to manage the agents, policies and configurations associated with the software. With this approach, reporting and analysis is often an afterthought. We designed SOLVE to provide simultaneous, real-time visibility into all security tools so that threats can be easily identified and addressed swiftly – eliminating that mountain of data, and providing actionable data without digging through logs and consoles."
