SAFsolution Enterprise Edition Delivers Tight Integration and

Enhanced Security Features for Windows Server 2003

SAFLINK(R) Corporation (OTCBB:SFLK), a leading developer, marketer, and integrator of biometric security solutions, announced today the availability of SAFsolution(R) Enterprise Edition biometric security software for Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003.

The company is among a selected group of Microsoft partners demonstrating their solutions at today's worldwide launch of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Visual Studio .NET(TM) 2003 in San Francisco. Industry leaders such as HP, Intel, and IBM will also be exhibiting their products at the launch.

"We are honored to be a part of this launch. We believe it validates the work that our people have done and the strength of our technology," said Glenn Argenbright, President and CEO of SAFLINK. "Microsoft is the world's leading software company and we sincerely look forward to working with them on future deployments."

SAFsolution Enterprise Edition is one of the first biometric security solutions designed and tested specifically for mid- to large-size organizations using Microsoft Active Directory(R) service, a foundation for managing identities and relationships within the Windows 2003 environment. SAFsolution helps enterprises improve security and ease network administration by replacing text-based passwords with a variety of unique physical characteristics, including fingerprint, voice, iris, and facial recognition.

"SAFLINK software offers customers an authentication security solution that is tightly coupled with Windows Server 2003 Active Directory," said Vic Gundotra, General Manager Platform Evangelism of Microsoft. "As companies migrate to Windows Server 2003, the security of their network environment will be a critical consideration. SAFLINK's integration with Windows Server 2003 will be an attractive option for our customers to increase that security."

SAFsolution utilizes the new features of Windows Server 2003 to deliver enhanced network security and performance, and is designed to integrate easily with Windows Server 2003. The software includes support for Windows Active Directory(TM) in Application Mode (AD/AM). SAFLINK believes that SAFsolution is the first multi-biometric security solution that includes support for AD/AM.

Companies who deploy Windows Server 2003 will benefit from greater application security, such as explicit Active Directory authorization checks and COM+ private components. Additional improvements include network load balancing and new features like COM+ application recycling. These features will help to strengthen the performance and reliability of SAFsolution, which provides strong user authentication through biometrics. SAFLINK plans to begin shipping the updated version of SAFsolution to new and existing customers by the end of the second quarter, 2003.

SAFLINK is scheduled to demonstrate SAFsolution Enterprise Edition at today's Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Visual Studio .NET 2003 Worldwide Launch in the Microsoft Partner Pavilion at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information, please contact Tom Doggett of SAFLINK at [e-mail] or 425/278-1202.
