Press Release Summary = The new dotDefenderT version for IIS features a Log Viewer,
enhanced User Experience and Advanced Customization Possibilities

Press Release Body = September 1, 2006 - Applicure Technologies ltd. announces
dotDefenderT version 2.7 for IIS, a new release of its leading web application
firewall. dotDefender is a software-based web application firewall deployed as a web
server plug-in to identify and stop attacks attempting to exploit vulnerabilities in
web applications to commit fraud or gain access to confidential information. This
unmatched application firewall is now enhanced with friendly user experience and
customization possibilities.
dotDefenderT Version 2.7 for IIS features friendlier GUI, a Log Viewer, and a new
installation process. For seamless integration with IIS, dotDefender 2.7 now
supports IIS Web Site Description. Additionally, the new version provides
sophisticated customization options, such as redirection to honeypot, flexible rule
settings, and improved security rules. dotDefender 2.7 supports IIS 5 and IIS 6.
David Allouch, CTO, commented: "Our aim in this version was to support a broader
range of deployment scenarios and further improve the functionality and
intuitiveness of the dotDefenderT user interface. The Log Viewer and other useful
features help our users protect their websites from application attacks in an
effortless and simple manner."
As security products such as network firewalls and anti-virus become commonplace,
hackers are turning to application vulnerabilities to attack websites. While network
security concerns are widely known and protected against, application
vulnerabilities are often ignored and websites are exposed to malicious use. The
unique advantage of dotDefender is in providing a software-based solution that is
flexible and cost-effective.
Yaacov Sherban, VP Marketing and Business Development, added: "We would like to
thank our clients for their feedback and suggestions that were incorporated in this
version. We are committed to learn from their experience and improve our products
for their success."
