Gilian Technologies' G-Server™ Solution Receives OPSEC Certification From Check Point Software Technologies

Redwood City, CA - August 2, 2001 - Gilian Technologies, Inc., today announced that it has received OPSEC™ (Open Platform for Security) certification for G-ServerÔ, a Web site security and availability solution, from Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq: CHKP), the worldwide leader in securing the Internet. Through OPSEC certification, Gilian's high-performance security technology seamlessly integrates with Check Point's industry-leading VPN-1™/FireWall-1® software, an integral part of the Secure Virtual Network (SVN) architecture.

Using digital signatures to detect Web site vandalism, the G-Server not only verifies the outbound flow from a Web server, but also proactively traps fraudulent data, replacing it with archived mirrors of the original data. As an exit control appliance independent of the Web server, the G-Server maintains availability and authenticity. Via open OPSEC™ interfaces, the G-Server application can now interoperate with Check Point's VPN-1/FireWall-1 software to notify security administrators of any change attempts.

"We are pleased to see Gilian Technologies achieve OPSEC certification for its G-Server solution," said Upesh Patel, Manager of the OPSEC Alliance for Check Point Software Technologies. "The integration of G-Server with Check Point's VPN-1/FireWall-1 offers customers a best-of-breed web content security solution for proactively detecting and preventing malicious attacks at web servers."

"The G-Server's proactive notification feature extends security to the enterprise and web application level," said John Tennant, Director of Business Development at Gilian Technologies. "The combination of G-Server with Check Point's leading VPN-1/FireWall-1 solution enables security administrators to easily view, configure and supervise their secured Internet environment from a central point of control."
