AirDefense Continues Robust Growth In 2007 Through Development Of “Industry-Best” Wireless Security Solutions

Product Innovation Results in Rapid Customer Growth: AirDefense Offers Wireless Security Industry’s Most Comprehensive WLAN Platform

Atlanta, GA - June 06, 2007 –AirDefense, the innovator that launched the wireless LAN security market, today reinforced its leadership position in the wireless LAN (WLAN) intrusion prevention industry. During the first four months of 2007, customer orders grew nearly 70 percent over the same period last year. AirDefense continues to be the choice of global enterprises due to superior products and technological innovation.

The foundation of AirDefense’s rapid growth since its inception lies within its market leadership and technological superiority. In April, AirDefense unveiled its WEP Cloaking™ module, the first and only technology for global retailers and other companies using the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security standard to protect wireless networks. This was a significant milestone as WEP Cloaking enables retailers to preserve existing investments in handheld devices including wireless point of sale systems, barcode scanners and VoIP handsets.

In February, AirDefense launched AirDefense Enterprise 7.2, the most comprehensive WLAN protection product suite. Enterprise 7.2 features a powerful new reporting engine and a sophisticated wireless troubleshooting module. Additionally 7.2 includes LiveRF, powered by Motorola, intelligent event management capabilities with new correlation algorithms, and improved system administration features, which allow the effortless protection of hundreds of wireless sites.

“AirDefense’s primary focus is helping our customers better solve their wireless security vulnerabilities and administration challenges, along with staying compliant with standards such as those dictated by the Payment Card Industry (PCI),” said Mike Potts, president and CEO of AirDefense. “With more than 700 enterprise customers across the globe, our rapid growth is a direct reflection of AirDefense’s ability to create and deploy powerful solutions that keep large enterprises safe.”

AirDefense has an unrivaled number of customers in government, retail, financial services, healthcare and other industries using its technology to lock down wireless networks. “Carilion Clinic has been relying on AirDefense Enterprise for more than three years, and without their software we would not be able to offer our staff the flexibility needed to care for our growing base of patients throughout Virginia,” said Brian Brindle of Carilion Clinic.

AirDefense has an unparalleled channel of technology partners that enable the company to bring integrated security solutions to global 1,000 corporations worldwide. Most recently AirDefense and Nortel partnered, enabling corporations to seamlessly and cost effectively add AirDefense security to their Nortel wireless network. AirDefense also partners with other leading companies that include Motorola and Trapeze Networks.

In May, Techworld named AirDefense a finalist for “Wireless Security Product of the Year” which will be awarded in London on June 27. In April, AirDefense was awarded a “2007 Reader’s Choice Award” in the Wireless category from Information Security™ magazine and SearchSecurity.com.™ In March, the company was named “Market Leader” by industry analyst firm Frost & Sullivan in an independent report titled Wireless Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems Market.
