 SECURIFY AWARDED CONTRACT FOR NAVY NETWORK SECURITY

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., August 11, 2003 - Securify, Inc., a pioneer and leader in network security management, today announced EDS has awarded the company a contract to help secure U.S. Navy legacy networks during the Department of the Navy’s (DON) transition to the Navy Marine Corps Intranet (NMCI).

Under terms of the new contract, EDS will deploy the full suite of SecurVantageTM security management products to automatically verify the ongoing policy compliance of the networks and provide the high quality information and quantitative metrics required to more effectively manage the overall security posture of the NMCI and Navy legacy networks.

SecurVantage continuously monitors, measures and analyzes network traffic to ensure it is in compliance with the established network security practices, providing NMCI security personnel and the DON with real-time information on the overall effectiveness of Navy legacy network- and application-level security components, including firewalls, virus protection software, VPNs, routers, authentication and authorization solutions and a broad variety of hosts.

SecurVantage, installed at the boundary between NMCI and Navy legacy networks, is able to identify inappropriate network activity from either side of the boundary, as well as monitor expected but untrustworthy traffic, and provide the relevant, actionable information necessary to quickly and effectively combat security breaches.

“We look forward to working with EDS in implementing this automated security management solution to protect the Navy legacy networks,” said Carl Wright, vice president of federal operations for Securify.

The Securify SecurVantage automated network security management suite consists of SecurVantage Studio, the policy development and analysis environment; SecurVantage Monitor, the monitoring and evaluation system; SecurVantage Enterprise, which aggregates and analyzes data across an enterprise; and SecurVantage Enterprise Global for more easily managing network security in highly complex environments.

The SecurVantage solution provides detailed information on all aspects of network security, including network topology; applications and services for logical network groups; and asset vulnerabilities. Additionally, trend reports based upon policy violations can assess specific areas of network operation. These reports include violation trends by host group; root cause analysis of recurring events; total traffic and violations by type of service; device configuration status; access procedure compliance; service status by host group; and quality of service for encryption and password strength.

The NMCI is a comprehensive, enterprise-wide network that will make the full range of network-based information services available to sailors and Marines for day-to-day activities and in war. When fully deployed, NMCI will provide the Navy and Marine Corps secure, universal access to integrated voice, video and data communications, afford pier-side connectivity to Navy vessels in port, and will link more than 360,000 desktops across the United States and several overseas sites.
