MCLEAN, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 17, 1999--

--Easy-to-use Document Security Solutions Employ Intel's Processor

Serial Number feature to Create Ironclad Security for Communications

and Digital Signatures--

Aliroo Inc., an international developer and provider of Information System Security Solutions, today announced its participation in the Intel(R) Pentium(R) III Processor Preview Day to be held in San Jose, CA on Feb. 17.

Aliroo will also launch its new OEM pre-load program.

At the show, Aliroo will demonstrate and introduce their enterprise security solutions that are enhanced by the Pentium III processor serial number feature. The company will feature its PrivaSEAL(TM) document authentication for creating and applying graphic digital signatures. The Pentium III Processor Preview Day showcases Pentium III processor software titles, websites and solutions.

By enhancing Aliroo PrivaSEAL(TM), SecureSentry(TM), PrivaSUITE(TM) products to use the Pentium III processor serial number feature, Aliroo creates a security "token" that helps ensure that access to the PC, the digital signature of the authorized user, or the user's encryption keybooks are completely secure on their designated PC.

"Aliroo is pleased to see platforms such as those based on the Pentium III processor because they provide users with a new layer of security to be used with our products," said Meir Zorea, President at Aliroo Inc. "With PrivaSEAL working in conjunction with the Pentium III processor, for example, users can protect their graphic digital signature from "hacking" or intrusion. This Preview Day also provides the perfect forum and audience for Aliroo to kick-off our OEM program with these products. We expect a great deal of interest in Aliroo technology at the Preview Day, especially in our unique use of the Pentium III processor serial number."

"Aliroo's utilization of the processor serial number feature in the Pentium III processor in its line of security products is a good example of how this technology will benefit computer users," said Albert Teng, director, Intel New Technologies and Business Group. "Providing added user protection to applications such as this is a key part of effective information management. It is also a good example of incorporating smartcard, processor serial number and other security components to offer benefits to corporate users."

Participants in Aliroo's newly launched OEM program will be offered special pre-load versions of PrivaSEAL and PrivaSUITE. Essentially, PrivaSUITE will provide end-users with "out-of-the-box" document and e-mail security as a standard feature of the OEM's PC offering. Using the pre-loaded PrivaSEAL, end-users can easily create their own graphic digital signature utilizing X.509 digital certificates obtained via convenient Web access from Certificate Authorities such as GTE or Verisign. Aliroo's step-by-step process will then guide the user through the process of combining their certificate with the processor serial number-enabled PrivaSEAL digital signature. This particular utilization of the Intel Pentium III processor is currently unique to Aliroo and works on any computer, including notebooks.
