Press Release Body = New Jersey, USA, 29 November, 2006 - Elitecore, the makers of
Identity-based Unified Threat Management (UTM) appliances, today announced a version
release for their Cyberoam range of integrated security appliances. With the new
'High Availability' feature inbuilt in the current range of security appliances,
Cyberoam ensures that its enterprises operate under continuous security while
enjoying efficient access to critical information, applications and services. In
addition, the version offers greater granularity and flexibility.

The 9.4.0.0 version of Cyberoam addresses the security concerns related to device
failures as a result of integrating the security solutions into one unified
appliance.

Talking about the latest version release, Harish Chib, VP Marketing, Cyberoam, said
"Continuous connectivity and security is paramount to a client in today's scenario.
Version 9.4.0.0 of Cyberoam has been launched to stop enterprises from suffering
crippling security and connectivity failures in the future." He added, "In addition
this, the new version comes equipped with Dynamic DNS (DDNS) and Custom Signature
Support for IDP which will offer higher levels of security and greater granularity
to our clients."

High Availability involves the deployment of two Cyberoam appliances in
active-passive mode, with master and slave appliances. On failure of the master for
any reason, the slave takes over, ensuring continuous security.

Cyberoam DDNS service is of critical need to enterprises functioning without a
static IP address through hosted web servers. Of particular use in cases of DSL and
broadband connectivity as in the middle-east and increasingly so in India, DDNS
ensures that external-interfacing resources like websites, mail servers can be
reached by the external world despite dynamic IPs.

Introduction of custom signature in Cyberoam Intrusion Detection and Prevention
(IDP) builds high levels of granularity in the Cyberoam security appliance, allowing
enterprises to create their own signatures instantly for emerging threats. In the
beta release, enterprises have benefited from blocking chat IDs of external users,
https sites like Orkut, Trojan messages coming via Yahoo Messenger and more.

In addition, the version has included three web categories - Active X, Applets and
Cookies - to WebCat, its web categorization engine, offering greater control in
containing security breaches. The version also includes RADIUS authentication, FTP
scanning for Anti-Virus for incoming and outgoing mail traffic, as well as SMTP
authentication among other features.

Cyberoam' comprehensive security protects enterprises from Internet threats,
including spyware, phishing, pharming, viruses, worms, Trojans and more. Cyberoam
appliances offer the complete set of security features - Firewall-VPN, Anti-virus,
Anti-spam, Intrusion Detection and Prevention, Content Filtering in addition to
Bandwidth Management and Multiple Link Management over a single platform.

Cyberoam appliances - CR50i, CR100i, CR250i, CR500i, CR1000i and CR1500i - suit the
requirements of small to large enterprises from 50 to 1500 users. Cyberoam offers
integrated Internet security to over 1000 enterprises in Asia, USA, Africa and
Middle-East.
