Business/Technology Editors

Internet World Wireless East 2002

ADVISORY...for Wednesday (Feb. 20)

--(BUSINESS WIRE)

"Content Security at Hand" Discusses Advantages, Threats

Of Doing Business in a Mobile, Distributed Environment



Who: F-Secure, Inc., a leading developer of centrally managed security
solutions for the mobile enterprise.

What: New white paper describing information security issues facing
enterprises adopting hand-held devices

When: Feb. 20, 2002

Where: Internet World / Wireless Conference, Booth # 628, Jacob Javits
Convention Center, New York City

Why: As enterprises' work environment becomes increasingly mobile, a
host of new devices become part of the IT portfolio. Laptops with
wireless access to the Net, and now PDAs with advanced functionality,
are fast becoming today's PCs. The proliferation of these devices, and
the operating systems and infrastructure in which they work, presents
untold challenges to information security.

Detail: Enterprises are expected to react quickly to changing
circumstances. These expectations bring new impetus to "going
wireless." Along with this trend comes an assortment of viruses,
worms, and other threats. The new white paper from F-Secure, "Content
Security at Hand," describes the various elements in today's mobile
infrastructure, outlines the threats, and presents information on
F-Secure's range of solutions to these threats.

The white paper is available in the F-Secure booth at the RSA
conference, Booth # 1316, San Jose Convention Center (correct?), and
on the company's website (URL for white paper: www.xxx.com/html)
