Press Release Summary: Comodo Supports the Expansion of Covenant House\'s Global
Candlelight Vigil for Homeless Youth Beginning November 15

Press Release Body: Jersey City, NJ, November 13, 2007 - Comodo, a global
Certification Authority and leading security company announced today its support for
the expansion of Covenant House's 17th Annual International Candlelight Vigil for
Homeless Youth which begins on Thursday, November 15. This campaign is meant to
shine light on an urgent problem of homelessness among children around the world. By
providing support for this initiative, Comodo and Covenant House hopes hundreds of
new locations will join the vigils it traditionally hosts at its 21 locations in
North and Latin America.

According to Covenant House President Sister Tricia Cruise, S.C., \"Homelessness
threatens the most vulnerable in society, our children and teenagers. Broken homes,
poverty, abuse and neglect force our youth into desperate and life- threatening
circumstances. We must unite to end this international tragedy.\" In the US alone,
there are over 1.3 million homeless youth at some time throughout the year and
200,000 homeless youth on any given day. Almost 40 percent of the homeless in the US
are under the age 18. Nearly 5,000 homeless youth die from assault, illness or
suicide each year and 57 percent of homeless youth do not eat at least one day a
month. The Candlelight Vigil is the beginning of a concerted effort to address this
global crisis and coincides with National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week
(Nov. 12-18).

\"We hope that by bringing international public attention to the issue through our
extensive network of customers, channel partners and users, we can make a real
difference to help kids by raising awareness and funds to help improve the futures
of these homeless children,\" said Melih Abdulhayoglu, CEO and Chief Security
Architect of Comodo.

Covenant House has created a host of ways to support this effort including hosting a
local vigil, lighting \"virtual\" candles and purchasing event branded merchandise.
