Entrust Secure Identity Management Solution Delivers Seamless Strong Authentication for Leading Applications

    Latest Release of Entrust TruePass Makes it Easier to Integrate Strong
       Authentication and Speed Deployment of Key Customer Applications

    SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- RSA CONFERENCE --
Entrust, Inc. (Nasdaq: ENTU), a global leader in securing digital identities
and information, announced today that through integration with leading
applications and technology from Citrix Systems, Oracle, and SAP, and through
integration and bundling of Sun Microsystem's Identity Manager, the Entrust
Secure Identity Management Solution provides end customers with Web-based
strong authentication.  Strong authentication enables customers to expand the
deployment and use of these solutions by protecting sensitive information and
transactions from unauthorized access.  This new release of Entrust TruePass
software builds on the commitment of Entrust and its partners to provide
customers with a tightly integrated Secure Identity Management solution.
    "The ability to integrate strong authentication into our portal
environment was a critical requirement," said Dr. Ken Edgecombe, Executive
Director of the High Performance Computing Virtual Laboratory (HPCVL).  "Using
Entrust TruePass, HPCVL has been able to develop and is deploying a Secure
Grid Portal that will protect Intellectual Property and help researchers meet
compliance and regulatory guidelines while keeping complexity to a minimum."
    "Partnerships are critical to Entrust's success," said Chris Voice, vice
president of Identity Management Solutions at Entrust.  "The latest release of
Entrust TruePass is an excellent example of how Entrust and its partners are
working to provide customers with a tightly integrated secure identity
management solution that includes key elements like strong authentication that
our customers are demanding."
    To help customers speed their deployment, Entrust and some of its partners
have published integration guides that illustrate how to add Entrust TruePass
security to their sensitive applications.  These integration guides may be
found at: http://www.entrust.com/services/briefs.htm .
    "Citrix is focused on providing secure, single-point access to
applications and information from any location, device or network connection,"
said Josh Drachman, director of Corporate Development for Citrix.  "The
ability to easily add higher levels of security gives our customers the
flexibility to increase data protection."
    "There is tremendous customer value in the ability to easily add strong
authentication to a Web application as a part of a company's secure identity
management strategy," said John Heimann, director, Security Product
Management, Oracle Corp.  "As our joint customers extend beyond the enterprise
boundaries, Entrust TruePass will help allow secure access to our customers'
sensitive data."
    "Through our alliance, Sun and Entrust help provide our customers market-
leading identity management solutions that are essential to creating and
managing secure environments," said Mike Turner, vice president and general
manager, identity management solutions at Sun.  "We look forward to continuing
our strategic relationship with Entrust and driving customer-focused solutions
through the integration of Sun identity management technologies as part of
Entrust TruePass."

Identity Management Solution and is available directly from Entrust or

Information Security Governance in the market today, the Entrust Secure
Identity Management Solution can help organizations improve compliance with
