Richard Greene to Lead Field Operations, Tim Vo to Lead Engineering

CUPERTINO, Calif., January 25, 2006 - Securify, Inc., today announced the appointments of Richard Greene as Vice President of Field Operations and Tim Vo as Vice President of Engineering.

Over the past three years, we have methodically invested in the technology that meets the next generation of demands for validating and enforcing network usage and have expanded our customer base to include some of the most sensitive networks in the world," said Buck French, Securify Chairman and CEO. "Richard and Tim are world class, proven executives that will help drive our aggressive market expansion, maintain an absolute focus on customer satisfaction and deliver more of the technical innovation that helps our clients to enable and secure their businesses."

Securify customers are fanatical about how we are helping reduce their reactive operational workloads while increasing their security policy compliance and enabling their operations," said Richard Greene. "Our combination of unique, patented technology and a battle-proven team help drive 90% repeat purchase rates from our existing clients. This is the right team at the right time to drive market adoption of Securify solutions."

Securify offers a unique, positive policy-based solution that detects external and internal intrusions without being inundated with false alarms typically associated with negative signature and VA sensors," said Tim Vo. "We also enable network administrators and security engineers to see application protocol transactions in the context of the network's structure. This provides a common frame of reference to systematically and quickly hone in on potential operations and security problems. In turn this helps to reduce the overall workload to maintain both systems uptime and security posture."
