ETIS TECHNOLOGIES TO EXPAND LANCOPE’S PRESENCE IN CANADA
Leading Developer of Network Integrity Solutions Signs ETIS Technologies for Strategic Expansion in North America

ATLANTA, Ga., March 11, 2004

Lancope, Inc., the leading provider of behavior-based threat detection and network intelligence solutions, today announced that it has signed a partner distribution agreement with ETIS Technologies, Inc., a large Canadian distributor of network security solutions. ETIS’ extensive reach throughout Canada will help Lancope solidify its position as the network integrity provider of choice for Canada and extend its presence in North America.

“Fulfilling our Canadian expansion strategy through ETIS gives us the cost-efficiencies, speed-to-market and depth-of-resources needed to expand our presence in this important market,” said Mark Moeller, director of the Partner Program for Lancope. “With ETIS’ extensive network of Canadian resellers and system integrators, Lancope can achieve immediate results and better serve our Canadian customers and partners.”

In October 2003, the Canadian Advanced Technology Alliance conservatively estimated the country’s security market to be in excess of $1.5 billion. By leveraging ETIS’ expertise in Canada’s information security and government sectors, Lancope is advantageously positioned to capitalize on this market opportunity, drive its sales and marketing initiatives and further develop Lancope’s Channel Partner Program globally.

According to Karen Letain, COO for ETIS Technologies, “Together with Lancope we look forward to mitigating security risks for Canadian government and businesses. In a rapidly evolving market, Lancope has proven that its unique approach to security through network intelligence is a winning strategy for the Canadian government and corporate markets.”

ETIS will distribute the StealthWatch system to its extensive network of Canadian resellers and system integrators. The StealthWatch system, which includes StealthWatch, StealthWatch+Therminator and StealthWatch Management Console, provides enhanced network and host level security as well as powerful visualization of network activity in order to optimize security and network operations.
