Mercury Interactive signed a definitive agreement to acquire privately held Systinet for $105 million, with the hopes that the deal will boost its position in the fast-growing service-oriented architecture software and services market. Mercury software is designed to let organizations calibrate their IT initiatives so that they support business activities; Systinet's software lets organizations keep a record of application components and maintain control over them.

EIQnetworks last week announced it has enhanced the security and compliance-management capabilities of its information and event management software, Enterprise Security Analyzer Version 2.1. The software gathers data across security and network devices and includes compliance reports custom-designed to meet multiple regulatory auditor requirements. New to ESA 2.1 is support for eEye's Retina scanner, Internet Security Systems' vulnerability scanners, a Cisco-specific collection tool Cisco Security Agent and Cisco's NetFlow and C-Flow protocols. Pricing for ESA starts at $8,000, which includes a license for five devices and five hosts (Windows, Linux or Unix). A 50-node enterprise deployment starts at around $25,000. A 100-node enterprise deployment starts at around $50,000.

Adobe last week acquired the FileLine Digital Rights Management division of Navisware, and expects to add the technology to its LiveCycle Policy Server this fall. The software allows companies to control who can access documents saved in PDF, Microsoft Office and CAD formats as well as how and when they get access. In addition, the software creates an audit log of who has opened documents. Terms of the deal were not disclosed and pricing was not announced.
