SC Magazine Awards 5-Star Rating to Raytheon Oakley Systems' SureView(TM) Insider Threat Monitoring Solution

  SureView secures highest rating for 'unsurpassed' replay capability and
                                ease of use

    SALT LAKE CITY, Dec. 14, 2007 /PRNewswire/ -- SC Magazine, a leading
information technology security publication, has awarded Raytheon Oakley
Systems' SureView(TM) solution a 5-star review and its prestigious
"recommended" rating in its recent analysis of data leakage prevention
solutions. The 5-star overall rating is the highest awarded by SC Magazine,
which examined nine solutions in its group test review.

    Raytheon Oakley Systems' SureView is a comprehensive user activity
monitoring solution that helps detect, prevent and resolve insider policy
violations. More than just data leakage prevention, the SureView platform
monitors all activity across an organization's desktops and network,
including mobile and offline users, and even allows selected views into
encrypted web traffic, e-mail and attachments.

    SureView is the only solution that provides digital video recorder-like
incident replay, which allows an organization to take targeted action on
acceptable use violations and provides powerful forensic support for
investigations into more serious fraud, theft and other malicious threats.

    According to SC Magazine, this incident replay feature sets Raytheon
Oakley's offering apart. "As a forensic evidence tool, this capability
really shines," said Peter Stephenson, technology editor and author of SC
Magazine's 2007 Data Leak Prevention group test report. "For accidental
behavior, this function is an excellent teaching tool. For deliberate
violators, this provides all of the forensic evidence you will need."

    "SureView is trusted by Fortune 100 companies, key government
institutions and top retailers and manufacturers worldwide," said Derek
Smith, president of Raytheon Oakley Systems. "We are honored to receive
this exceptional rating from SC Magazine. SureView is a key component of
our customers' larger 'insider risk management' strategies."

    The SC Magazine test team is composed of specialist members of the
magazine staff. The publication, whose mission is to provide IT security
professionals with in-depth and unbiased information, gave SureView its top
5-star or "outstanding" rating in features, ease of use, performance, and
documentation.

    The review team conducted rigorous independent tests on nine products
in the data leak prevention category and concluded that: "The Raytheon
Oakley Networks SureView appliance offers very complete extrusion
prevention. If you need very strong data leakage protections with powerful
forensics, this is the product for you. For its unique approach to
forensics, we designate this product Recommended."
