KILLEEN & RICHARDSON, Texas -- Army Deployment Integrates Tools, Training and Techniques to Combat Insider Threats Behind Firewalls and External Threats Such as Spyware

Intrusion Inc. (NASDAQ:INTZ) ("Intrusion") and the U.S Army at Fort Hood (Fort Hood) announced today the selection by The Aberdeen Group of the US Army Directorate of Information Management (DOIM) at Fort Hood for its 2005 Best Security Practices award.

Nominated organizations were selected based on implementing best practices in the following 5 major areas of specialization for security:

--Network infrastructure

--Identity and access

--Host, data, application, and information protection

--Threat and vulnerability and change management

--Security policies, procedures, audit, and risk management reporting

Aberdeen's Compliance, Security and Risk Management practice then carefully screened all nominees from around the world using 11 different categories of rigorous IT security criteria. Only ten organizations were selected for the award from the field of nominees including Commercial Companies, State, Local and Federal government institutions, Universities and other entities.

"Like all organizations today, the information infrastructure supporting our troops for the US Army at Fort Hood is under constant attack from multiple fronts and from enemies using different types of weapons," explained Dennis Sheppard, Director of Information Management at Fort Hood. "The DOIM's Information Assurance team worked closely with strategic vendor partners such as Intrusion Inc., to implement the necessary countermeasures required to safeguard our IT systems and support the Army's mission to win the Global War on Terror. We're pleased to be recognized as one of only 10 organizations in the world selected for this prestigious award."

Intrusion's Common Criteria certified SecureNet systems were deployed, along with the company's Security Status Review (SSR) program to help increase visibility of attack details and employ fast-action "under-attack" response mechanisms such as intrusion prevention, real-time displays and sophisticated forensic analyses. In addition to the Army's SecureNet system for intrusion prevention, the Fort Hood DOIM deployed Intrusion's SecureNet SpySnare to block all forms of spyware and unauthorized peer-to-peer communications, often a source of spyware infections.

Ben Bittle, Director of Product Management added, "One result of our close partnering with the Fort Hood DOIM was the creation of a new SecureNet reporting system the Army now calls their MA-COM Report. The new report breaks down security event details by the Army's Major Command organizations, allowing DOIM IA personnel to more effectively deploy resources when needed."
