Press Release Summary = NOC Monkey V1.5 Solution from PositiveSoftware includes
server provisioning tool with FreeBSD support at a reduced price - an industry
first!

Press Release Body = Jersey City, NJ (February 20, 2006) - Comodo Inc., a global
leader in Identity and Trust Assurance (ITA) Management solutions, today announced
that Psoft, a Comodo company and a leading provider of secure Internet software to
manage web hosting environments, has announced today the immediate availability of
NOC Monkey V1.5. NOC Monkey (nocmonkey.psoft.net) is the first product for remote
server provisioning with management performed through an easy to use web interface.
The solution allows full direct access to the server to recover system or install
new OS while being at a remote location.

This new version, NOC Monkey V1.5, allows remote server provisioning and recovery
tool that to date, was only available to large companies that utilized proprietary
solutions. NOC Monkey V1.5 gives companies of all sizes access to leading edge
automation tools for the task of server provisioning using a simple Web based
interface from which operating systems can be remotely installed and recovered.

Featuring admin and user level access, the system also enables administrators to
change root passwords, run fsck in single user mode (for repairing LINUX files),
recover hacked servers and custom partition hard disks from the same interface.
Furthermore, using a new \'grab/install\' system, the software adapts to various
OS/hardware configurations by auto detecting new servers. The new version introduces
the ability to provision FreeBSD 4.x, 5.x & 6.x, Debian and Slackware, in addition
for already supported RedHat, Fedora, Trustix & CentOS. In Recovery mode the new
version adds support for ReiserFS and SELinux.

\"Comodo see hugely enhanced provisioning speeds for datacenter administrators and
web-hosting companies alike. Within a few clicks, servers can be remotely recovered,
operating systems installed and root passwords changed --exercises that usually
require a physical presence and take time, effort and therefore money to
accomplish\", said Igor Seletsky, CTO of Comodo and leading innovator of NOC Monkey.

\"One immediate benefit of this is improved customer response time. The ability to
store multiple server profiles and OS configuration images enables Web hosts to
quickly respond to customer\'s requirements\", continued Mr Seletsky. \"Such
\"deployment on the fly\" represents a massive shortcut compared to installing and
configuring a system from scratch. Plus support for FreeBSD, the most requested
customer feature, makes NOC Monkey much more useful for our clients, and greatly
improves the value for our clients\".

Cost and time savings generated by basing a datacenter or hosting provisioning
around NOC Monkey controlled servers could be passed onto customers to generate a
competitive advantage in a decidedly tight business. Further, this new version
delivers a better value to customers with new pricing model to enable enterprises to
achieve operational efficiencies and cost savings.
