Presidential Debate Security to Use Local E-SPONDER Express ProductWUPD employs St. Louis solution for incident and event management, mandate compliance

ST. LOUIS, March 3 /PRNewswire/ -- The Washington University Police Department (WUPD) has selected incident management system E-SPONDER Express for use at the October Vice-Presidential Debates to be held at Washington University, and as a tool in their ongoing operations. St. Louis based company Convergence Communications created this turnkey solution for first response agencies, allowing them to view organized data that is tracked in real-time during events and incidents.

The WUPD used Convergence's E-SPONDER suite, created for collaborative use by multiple departments, for security management of the 2004 Presidential Debates at Washington University. E-SPONDER Express is built for use by an individual agency, and comes equipped with a host of automated forms and tools for tracking and managing resources and information.

"E-SPONDER allowed me to have all of the key information that I needed before, during, and after the 2004 Debate, as well as the ability to manage that information instantly," Washington University Police Chief Don Strom said. "So when Convergence introduced their new E-SPONDER Express solution to the department, I was immediately interested."

E-SPONDER Express is an appliance device; the solution literally arrives ready to go, and includes hardware, software, licensing, training, and 3 years of hardware maintenance for $19,999. Users access the browser-based tool online or through the purchasing organization's private network, and because it is a turnkey solution, it requires little to no IT involvement on the part of the organization.

"We built E-SPONDER Express to be the whole package -- everything an organization needs to be informed during incident management, as well as the tools to prepare for an event and recover afterwards," Convergence President and CEO Robert Wolf said. "We pride ourselves on the usability of E-SPONDER Express. Because it utilizes Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, users interact with a familiar interface and can be trained on the system in minutes."

E-SPONDER Express includes a standard, all-hazards template utilizing the ICS forms, roles and processes outlined by FEMA. The Office SharePoint Server 2007 solution also allows users to create templates that can be loaded with a wealth of information based on the types of incidents that face the organization.

"We are pleased that Convergence has taken the opportunity to expand on the SharePoint Server 2007 platform," said Tom Rizzo, Director of SharePoint at Microsoft . "This tool can enhance the rich set of features SharePoint Server 2007 already offers to better fit the needs of first responders."

It also provides organizations with the tools to fulfill the mandates of Homeland Security Presidential Directive-5 (HSPD-5), thus assisting in the response and recovery processes including the ability to assist in identifying and tracking reimbursable expenses by the organization.

HSPD-5 requires that those agencies involved in incident management be compliant with the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and Incident Command Structure (ICS). These directives mandate that first response organizations track a large quantity of data, including expense, resource, and personnel information. ICS alone could be up to 40 forms that must be filled out for every operational period. Part of what E-SPONDER Express does is provide electronic versions of these forms and automate them for single-click entry, so that recurring information is input automatically.

"Even when an event is over, the responding organization still has to complete a large amount of paperwork; with the automated ICS forms, their post-incident work becomes much more manageable," Wolf said.

In addition to the E-SPONDER Express solution, the WUPD will also be leveraging the E-SPONDER Alerts module. This component allows the department to request assistance from or provide information to thousands of people within seconds. This two-way communication tool enables an organization to simultaneously notify thousands of individuals of critical information by voice, text message, e-mail, or alpha pager, and then records and tracks each person's response.

"The night before the 2004 debate, I got a good night's sleep because I knew that we had a plan in place that would work and we also had a solution in front of us that would allow us to manage that plan," Strom said. "With the incorporation of E-SPONDER Express, I know that we will have the tools we need to be informed about our environment in any situation."

Extreme Networks BlackDiamond 8810 Bests Competition by Delivering Enterprise-Class Features While Consuming Close to One-Half To One-Quarter of the Electrical PowerThe Tolly Group Tests Show that the BlackDiamond(R) 8810 Switch Consumes Significantly Less Power in Comparison to similar Cisco and Foundry switches

SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Enterprises that are seeking "Green IT" solutions for the network, including the LAN backbone, aggregation portion and for data server farms, should review a recent test report showcasing how Extreme Networks, Inc.'s BlackDiamond(R) 8810 switch consumes less electrical power under various conditions and traffic loads when compared to modular LAN switching systems from Foundry Networks and Cisco.

Core Ethernet switches serve as the foundation for high speed data, bandwidth intensive enterprise applications, server farm aggregation and convergence. Operating on a 24x7 basis, the right core switches can support "Green" initiatives and cost savings through low power consumption, as electricity is saved from more efficient operation and design. This can result in annual cost savings while promoting a greener environment, with a reduced carbon footprint for organizations.

Recent tests recently performed by The Tolly Group clearly articulate the differences found with leading modular switches. The comprehensive power evaluation of switching systems demonstrates that Extreme Network(R) BlackDiamond(R) 8810 consumes 3.4X less power than Cisco's Catalyst 6509 switch and 2X less than Foundry Networks Big Iron RX-16 switch, when similarly configured and passing data traffic. Over a period of five years using Extreme Networks solution, cost savings can be up to $5,000 per switch, based on the US national average price for commercial electricity, as reported November 2007. Extreme Networks provided the "greenest," most energy efficient chassis of the three switches evaluated.

The Tolly reports can be directly accessed by visiting the Internet: http://www.tolly.com/DocDetail.aspx?DocNumber=208284

Enterprises are seeking power efficient network infrastructure to build their LAN backbones and distribution infrastructure as the cost and availability of power are becoming major considerations in the design of next generation network environments. Furthermore, IT managers expect and require that their drive for power-efficient infrastructure does not compromise on the critical features that are required within LAN switches. Extreme Networks solution portfolio can meet both needs.

The Extreme Networks solutions provide highly available, convergence-ready networks. Extreme Networks enhances its switching portfolio with an intelligent, edge to core modular operating system, ExtremeXOS, in addition to advanced traffic management functions providing Quality of Service (QoS) and integrated security functionality. This results in versatile, feature rich performance for the convergence of voice, video and data on a single network.

"Customers are seeking not only performance and reliability but also power efficient 'Green' solutions to underpin their network infrastructure, and as a result they turn to Extreme Networks," said Paul Hooper, chief marketing officer for Extreme Networks. "The recent Tolly Group tests confirm how our BlackDiamond switch can deliver power efficiency compared to leading competitors. This helps enterprises meet their goal of a cost-effective, responsive and environment friendly network infrastructure."

CeBIT 2008: Microsoft Announcements Span From the Environment to the Enterprise

HANNOVER, Germany, March 3 /PRNewswire/ --

- Steve Ballmer discusses environmental sustainability efforts from Microsoft and general availability of enterprise products.

Today at CeBIT 2008, Microsoft Corp CEO Steve Ballmer discussed company efforts for information technology (IT) and the protection of the environment, and delivered news about the next step in Microsoft's software plus services vision for more innovation in communication and collaboration. Looking at the power of software to have an impact on environmental issues including climate change, Microsoft announced a cooperative agreement with Yello Strom, a Cologne-based electricity supplier, to help people better understand what their electricity is being used for at home, and ecoDrive, a solution that Fiat Group Automobiles will deploy to improve environmentally friendly driving. For the enterprise, Ballmer announced the general availability of the freely downloadable Microsoft Search Server 2008 Express and Silverlight Blueprint for SharePoint. In addition, he announced the expansion of Microsoft Online Services for businesses of all sizes with Microsoft Exchange Online and Microsoft SharePoint Online entering a limited beta trial.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000822/MSFTLOGO )

Yello and Microsoft unveiled the Yello Sparzahler (Yello savings meter), which transfers power-consumption data from customers' home electricity meter to their computer with a handy Windows Vista gadget. The Yello savings meter can show customers how much electricity the refrigerator, the microwave or the home theatre system is using. With the Yello savings meter, people can keep a watchful eye on their home energy use - and the corresponding cost - and can check up on their energy consumption even when they are not at home, simply by logging onto the Yello website. Martin Vesper, managing director of Yello, demonstrated the application.

"With the decision to use Microsoft technology to create our online savings meter and the IT structure behind it, we chose a future-oriented solution for our company and our customers," Vesper said.

"We're focused on reducing computer power consumption and on finding new ways to use software and information technology to help protect the environment by enabling people to use energy more efficiently in every aspect of our lives," Ballmer said.

Environmental Sustainability

Achim Berg, general manager of Microsoft Germany, also participated in the presentation and announced new advances for the automotive sector, highlighting ecoDrive, a solution that Fiat will deploy to analyse a motorist's driving style and recommend a more environmentally friendly way to drive. The system is built on Blue&Me technology, already used by Fiat, which allows drivers to operate devices such as an MP3 player, a Smartphone or a navigation system by voice control. A Fiat 500 equipped with this technology can be seen at the main booth A26 in Hall 4.

Microsoft is focusing an increasing amount of resources towards helping to improve the environment through software and technology innovation. Ballmer announced that the company would be releasing its data centre best practices to help others in the industry learn from Microsoft's experience running large data centres around the world. The best practices will be made available on Microsoft's website and will detail information on site selection for clean and renewable power, space optimisation, and manageability to ensure efficiency of data centre services and infrastructure, and power prioritisation tactics for choosing servers and equipment that draw less power and produce less heat. By following the best practices announced today, Microsoft data centres such as the one recently announced in Dublin, Ireland, will consume less than half the energy of similar-sized data centres that were built just three years ago.

New Products

Ballmer also announced continued delivery of key parts of Microsoft's software plus services strategy with the news that Exchange Online and SharePoint Online, initially announced in September for worldwide businesses with more than 5,000 users, will soon be available to businesses of all sizes. Today, these services will be made available to American companies in a limited beta trial. The services are expected to be made generally available to businesses of all sizes in the second half of 2008.

The general availability of free software for enterprise search, Microsoft Search Server 2008 Express, was also announced. The server, introduced last fall, is a powerful solution designed to identify employee competencies in a company as easily as documents stored on a network. Search Server 2008 Express addresses the increasing requirement for enterprises to be able to find and share information across their organisations and demonstrates Microsoft's end-to-end approach to delivering enterprise search. The news adds to momentum created by Microsoft's recent offer to acquire Norwegian company Fast Search & Transfer ASA to enable users to deal with a single vendor for a variety of search options. The Silverlight Blueprint for SharePoint, now available, offers support for the development of flexible internet applications, combining the possibilities provided by web technologies with extensive interactivity functions. The Blueprint contains examples of use, detailed guidelines, best practices and the visualisation of business data.

Ballmer also gave an overview of the latest products from Microsoft, including Windows Server 2008, Microsoft SQL Server 2008 and Visual Studio 2008, which launched last week.

Penn Treaty Introduces LTCi QuickPass(SM) ProgramNew streamlined pre-application process helps make sale of long-term care insurance simpler for producers

ALLENTOWN, Pa., March 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Penn Treaty Network America Insurance Company has developed a new streamlined pre- application process which allows producers to quickly determine whether their clients qualify for long-term care insurance (LTCi).

Penn Treaty's LTCi QuickPass program is designed to save both time and money while making the long-term care insurance sales process more comfortable for the client.

With this program, Penn Treaty has modified the traditional sales process to allow agents to initiate the sale using a simple, one-page form that can be completed in the client's home or over the phone, whichever is more convenient. If the client is able to answer "no" to the five health questions on the form, the producer submits it to Penn Treaty. There are no complicated rate calculations and no premium is required at this stage.

Once the form is submitted to Penn Treaty, a nurse will contact the client to schedule a face-to-face interview and gather additional health information for the underwriting process. Everyone who qualifies for long-term care insurance coverage will be given a proposal, which is guaranteed for 30 days, subject to financial suitability requirements.

"Producers can use the LTCi QuickPass method to submit all of their business to us," said Derrick Brickhouse, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Penn Treaty. "It is also a great way to give clients an alternative insurer option at the point of sale, without having to complete a lengthy application."

Agents who are interested in putting the LTCi QuickPass program to work for them can call 1-800-362-0700 ext. 5020 or e-mail marketing@penntreaty.com for more information.

About Penn Treaty

With more than 35 years of industry experience, Penn Treaty has one of the longest active sales histories in long-term care insurance. A subsidiary of Penn Treaty American Corporation, the company is primarily engaged in the underwriting, marketing and sale of individual health insurance products, principally covering long-term nursing home and home health care. Penn Treaty is focused on providing policyholders and their families with the peace-of- mind and financial stability that long-term care insurance can deliver, whether they choose a nursing home, assisted living facility, or their own residence.

Long-term care insurance is offered through Penn Treaty Network America Insurance Company and its affiliated companies, American Network Insurance Company and American Independent Network Insurance Company of New York.

Mitek Systems Launches ImageNet Photo and Video to Extract Data From Digital MediaAPS Technology Group Partners with Mitek Systems to Deploy Integrated Application in Ports Worldwide

SAN DIEGO, March 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Mitek Systems, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: MITK) (http://www.miteksystems.com/), an innovator of image analytics and pattern recognition software, today announced ImageNet Photo and Video, pattern recognition technology that instantly reads, extracts and analyzes data from digital photos and video images.

ImageNet Photo and Video is an essential tool for organizations that need to improve business processes by extracting data from a variety of media sources, including images taken from camera phones and security cameras, or from uploaded Web content. Mitek System's highly accurate technology will read, extract and analyze data from any captured object such as license plates, street signs or billboards. The technology is optimized for color and ambient lighting conditions, and compensates for low contrast images.

APS Technology Group, a leading supplier of vision-based optical character recognition (OCR) and automation systems for marine and intermodal container terminals, recently partnered with Mitek Systems to integrate ImageNet Photo and Video into its Container OCR(TM) system. Container OCR utilizes ImageNet Photo and Video for its image analysis, cleanup and recognition capabilities to locate and read multi-line alphanumeric codes on shipping containers and truck chassis.

"APS Technology Group selected Mitek Systems as a partner to utilize ImageNet Photo and Video's superior capabilities to instantly capture data more accurately and faster than other solutions," said Russ Scheppmann, president, APS Technology Group. "Together with Mitek Systems, Container OCR will handle increased container volumes more efficiently, while simultaneously reducing operating costs and improving productivity."

ImageNet Photo and Video is the second application extending Mitek System's recognition technology to analyze digital media. Mitek Systems recently launched ImageNet Mobile Deposit, the first mobile banking software that allow banks to accept check deposits and bill payments via images taken from camera-equipped mobile phones.

ImageNet Photo and Video is the latest addition to Mitek System's integrated .NET recognition platform launched last year that includes ImageNet Prep and ID, Data Capture, Signature and Check 21 Payments. "We have extended ImageNet recognition capabilities beyond extracting data from documents and checks to include digital photos and videos, the highest growth segment in the market," said James DeBello, president and CEO, Mitek Systems. "Mitek Systems will continue to produce innovations leading the mobile imaging and photo recognition markets."

Mitek Systems will showcase its suite of ImageNet products, including Photo and Video and Mobile Deposit, in booth 2951 at the AIIM International Exposition and Conference, March 3-6, 2008 at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center, Boston, MA.

San Diego Harbor Police Deploy BIO-key(R) Automated Vehicle Location SystemSolution Improves Officer Situational Awareness

WALL, N.J., March 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BIO-key International, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: BKYI) , a leader in finger-based biometric identification and wireless public safety solutions, today announced the award of a contract from the San Diego Harbor Police Department (San Diego Harbor PD) to deploy BIO-key's automated vehicle location (AVL) capability in its patrol vehicles. San Diego Harbor PD, a BIO-key customer since 2000, has primary public safety and homeland security responsibility within the San Diego Unified Port District, which includes cargo and cruise ship terminals and the San Diego International Airport, as well as law enforcement and marine firefighting in San Diego Bay.

Under the new contract, AVL is now integrated with BIO-key's MobileCop(R) mobile data software, allowing vehicle location data to be automatically transmitted to San Diego Harbor PD's Homeland Security geographic information system (GIS). "The use of MobileCop and its AVL capability has been critical to our GIS deployment," said Thomas Lockwood, a member of the San Diego Port Information Technology Department. "We are using MobileCop to provide our GIS system with patrol vehicle locations, encrypt mobile communications and deliver our GIS application to vehicles out in the field."

"Using MobileCop and AVL to visually map the location of patrol vehicles in relation to a call for service or other emergency improves situational awareness across the department," explained Patrol Sergeant Eric Womack. "The enhanced safety of our officers in an emergency is the biggest value. Now everyone -- from the officer in the car to the dispatcher and commander at headquarters -- has the same information on the status and location of every unit available to respond to a call or provide backup."

MobileCop's silent, secure messaging also enables dispatchers to alert or send units to any critical activity in their sector without the risk of voice radio transmission interception. With BIO-key's MobileCop software on mobile data terminals, San Diego Harbor PD's patrol vehicle-based officers can quickly check Federal and state databases for outstanding warrants on an individual involved in an incident or previously apprehended in a restricted area of the airport or other port district facilities.

"San Diego Harbor PD is one of a growing list of transportation-related organizations using BIO-key mobile data solutions to help maintain homeland security and public safety," noted Ken Souza, Vice President and General Manager of BIO-key's Law Enforcement Division.

Captaris Announces New Capture and BPM Solutions for Microsoft SharePoint at AIIM Expo 2008Story Highlights - Four new products bring world-class capture and BPM capabilities to SharePoint 2007 customers at affordable prices- Captaris completes strategic transition from fax server leader to a leader in intelligent document and process management solutions- Captaris will also offer the new products to extend its large installed base of fax server and document management customers

BOSTON, March 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Captaris, Inc. , a leading provider of software products that automate document-centric business processes, today announced a new suite of capture and business process management products for customers who are using Microsoft's Office SharePoint Server 2007. Using the theme 'Do It the Right Way', Captaris will demonstrate in booth #2045 at the AIIM Expo 2008 how customers can now add powerful document classification, recognition and distribution capabilities to their Microsoft infrastructure at affordable costs. Additionally, the large installed base of Captaris customers will benefit because the new products extend their existing investment in Captaris document distribution and management solutions. The new products also include technology that Captaris recently acquired as part of the January 2008 purchase of Oce Document Technologies GmbH (now Captaris Document Technologies GmbH).

"Enterprise customers are quickly adopting Microsoft SharePoint and Microsoft Search Server for business process management, compliance, e-discovery, and records management applications, all of which require them to capture, manage and process large collections of scanned business documents," said Paul Yantus, executive vice president of Marketing and New Product Development for Captaris. "Our new products transform these documents into intelligent documents, so the vital information contained in those documents can easily be shared with other people, processes and applications to drive business process automation and enable document lifecycle management."

New Products Overview The following is a brief roundup of the new product announcements: -- RightDocs -- the flagship release of the new suite of products enables customers to accelerate business processes, to support compliance initiatives by controlling and tracking documents from the point of origin, and to easily share document information for better collaboration and enterprise search. RightDocs facilitates document capture from any imaging source, performs document classification and data extraction from structured, semi-structured and unstructured documents, then sends the documents and information into SharePoint 2007. RightDocs intelligently recognizes the document type and extracts vital information to automatically drive business process automation and enable document lifecycle management. The RightDocs system consists of several services which can be mixed and matched to a customer's needs: distributed batch scanning; capture; document classification; intelligent extraction; and a validation client. RightDocs also supports Captaris RightFax and Alchemy. -- RightStar -- the next generation of intelligent document distribution, RightStar is ideally suited for the rapid adoption of MFP devices as document on-ramps into the enterprise. RightStar eliminates human errors, improves security and compliance by reducing the number of people handling sensitive information, and reduces the labor costs normally associated with sorting and distributing documents. Going far beyond simple routing products, RightStar uses document metadata and powerful rules based on the Microsoft(R) Windows Workflow Foundation (WinWF) engine to automatically sort and deliver documents via SharePoint 2007, fax, e-mail and to business process and document management solutions. RightStar is an open system based on XML and WinWF standards, and Captaris is inviting other software vendors to develop extensions to their LOB or ECM applications. -- RightFlow -- providing business analysts with the high-level tools necessary to rapidly build and deploy effective Business Process Management (BPM) solutions on Microsoft WinWF, RightFlow helps with compliance by creating secure, auditable and repeatable processes. It increases productivity by identifying and removing organizational and system bottlenecks, and turns knowledge into a business asset by facilitating collaboration through effective process management. RightFlow manages document driven processes, prioritizes tasks, escalates problems and maintains visibility to key performance indicators at all times. RightFlow is an extensible and configurable product available as a stand-alone solution or as an add-on module for other Captaris products. RightFlow will be offered in an entry-level, affordable configuration. Captaris will also rebrand its existing Workflow product to RightFlow Enterprise and offer a migration path for the installed base. -- TIFF iFilter for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Search Server 2008 -- Simultaneous with AIIM Expo, Captaris and Microsoft jointly announced a new capture solution at the Microsoft SharePoint 2008 Conference in Seattle. Based on Captaris OCR server technology, the TIFF iFilter fills a hole in the current SharePoint and Search Server environment by enabling enterprise search of scanned documents alongside all the electronic documents. As a result, knowledge workers and managers can find all the information they need with a single search operation, improving business decision-making and increasing their productivity. The Captaris TIFF iFilter integrates within a SharePoint or Search Server environment and automatically extracts the full-text from scanned documents and enhances image quality.

"Our recent acquisition of ODT is paying immediate dividends by expanding our capture product offerings and significantly increasing our capability to serve the rapidly evolving distributed capture market," stated David P. Anastasi, President and CEO of Captaris. "AIIM Expo 2008 marks a key inflection point for Captaris as we continue to execute on our strategic transition plan from a fax server company to a leader in intelligent document capture, distribution and process management solutions."

Captaris plans to release the new products to the public in the second quarter of 2008. For more information, please visit the Captaris website at http://www.captaris.com/.

Trimble Introduces Flexible GNSS Mapping and GIS SolutionGPS Pathfinder ProXRT Receiver Sets New Standard for Mapping Accuracies and Convenience

SUNNYVALE, Calif., March 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Trimble today introduced a flexible Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver for Geographic Information System (GIS) data collection and mapping-the GPS Pathfinder(R) ProXRT receiver. The receiver combines a high- performance GPS receiver with Trimble(R) H-Star(TM) technology, OmniSTAR correction capability, and optional GLONASS capability to provide various levels of positioning accuracies-from submeter to decimeter (10 centimeter) accuracy.

The ProXRT receiver is ideal for high-accuracy mapping, data collection, and asset management applications in industries such as water/wastewater, utilities, telecommunications, transportation as well as many others. In recent years, these industries have experienced the need for subfoot and decimeter level performance.

"With its ability to provide various levels of accuracies through the use of multiple technologies, the new GPS Pathfinder ProXRT provides GIS professionals with the one of the most flexible and highest performing GNSS receivers for mapping on the market today," said Doug Merrill, general manager of Trimble's Mapping and GIS Division.

With Trimble's patented H-Star technology, GPS Pathfinder ProXRT receiver users can relocate assets in real time so they can verify their data before they even leave the job site. Users can connect to a real time correction source and collect decimeter positions in the field by using wireless communications link and a local Trimble VRS(TM) network or they can set up a base station for additional flexibility.

If a VRS network or a local base station is not available in the area, users can also achieve real-time decimeter accuracy with OmniSTAR HP corrections. The OmniSTAR antenna is integrated in the ProXRT receiver so there's no need to carry extra equipment-all a user needs to do is purchase a subscription from an OmniSTAR reseller for over the air corrections. The GPS Pathfinder ProXRT receiver is also capable of receiving OmniSTAR XP (for subfoot accuracy) and OmniSTAR VBS (for submeter accuracy).

Optional GLONASS support is also available. GLONASS increases the number of satellites that can be observed when working in real time. The GLONASS option provides users with the capability to maintain lock on enough satellites when sky visibility becomes limited, allowing them to continually work in urban canyons or high foliage environments. Tracking both GLONASS and GPS satellites can also improve productivity by reducing the time required to achieve real-time decimeter or subfoot accuracy.

The GPS Pathfinder ProXRT is a rugged receiver designed for tough field conditions and it can operate even in extreme temperatures. The integrated lithium ion battery is designed for all day use. Setup options for the ProXRT receiver include a backpack, range pole, or vehicle mounted.

With Bluetooth(R) technology, the GPS Pathfinder ProXRT receiver allows for cable-free communications to a field computer. The receiver can be connected to a variety of field computers, including the rugged Trimble Nomad(TM) series, Trimble Recon(R) handheld, or the Trimble Ranger(TM) handheld as well as laptops, tablet PCs, and PDAs.

The Trimble TerraSync(TM) software or Trimble GPScorrect(TM) extension for ESRI ArcPad software provides a complete solution from the field to office and back. Mapping professionals can also use GPS Pathfinder Tools Software Development Kit (SDK) to build their own customized application to fit their unique needs.

The GPS Pathfinder ProXRT receiver is expected to begin shipping in March 2008 from Trimble's worldwide Mapping and GIS dealers and business partners.

Aladdin eSafe First to Offer Dual Engine Protection from Spam and MalwareAladdin eSafe combines industry-tested, best-of-breed e-mail security engines to comprehensively block zero-hour spam and malware in real time

CHICAGO, March 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Aladdin Knowledge Systems , an information security leader specializing in authentication, software DRM and content security, today announced the release of Aladdin eSafe 6 Feature Release 2. This latest version of Aladdin eSafe features dual anti-spam engines for zero-hour, best-of-breed anti-spam and malware outbreak prevention, in addition to enhanced content security.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20040416/CGALADDINLOGO)

Aladdin eSafe is the first to combine the world's best real-time reputation and deep content analysis technologies in one dual-engine solution, providing zero-hour spam sender reputation and malware analysis as well as real-time content analysis. All email traffic is checked against a continuously updated spam and spyware database for the most up-to-date protection available. Enterprises can now enjoy the most complete spam and malware detection solution, which is equally effective in any language or email format.

The first anti-spam engine performs real-time sender reputation and distribution patterns analysis, monitoring traffic worldwide at ISP and other key email transfer locations to identify new spam and malware outbreaks as soon as they emerge. For emails from senders not catalogued in a local spam signatures database, Aladdin eSafe sends and receives a reputation query in real-time, classifying the email and blocking harmful senders. Aladdin eSafe proactively checks any mass distributed email -- spam, fraud, phishing or malware -- without blocking legitimate emails such as newsletters and mailing lists.

Performing simultaneous content analysis, the second engine prevents spam on three levels: phishing, fingerprint or fuzzy fingerprint. A combination of user-selected methods, some of which include smart signature matching, text analysis, URL categories and meta-heuristics, determine if incoming email is any form of phishing. Aladdin eSafe v6 Feature Release 2 checks emails against known spam characteristics, like matching a criminal's fingerprint, as well as looking for corrupted or modified image files -- "fuzzy fingerprint." Fuzzy fingerprint analysis detects a "unique" spam message that is at least 10 percent different from any other spam message ever received, but still contains enough similar characteristics to be identifiable. Similarities include spam content as well as patterns of distribution, including the originating country, common subject lines, the host Web site and the path of the e-mail.

"Aladdin eSafe 6 Feature Release 2 offers the most comprehensive email security available today," said Tsion Gonen, vice president of the Aladdin eSafe Business Unit. "Functions that normally require two or three products are automatically covered by Aladdin eSafe's dual engines, protecting enterprises from spam and malware with one integrated solution."

This latest version of Aladdin eSafe also offers enterprises unique security by stripping meta-data from MS Office attachments to prevent exposure of hidden, confidential information embedded in Office files, including revisions and collaboration information, preventing incidents before they happen.

About Aladdin eSafe

Aladdin eSafe protects against Web-based malware and zero-day threats through an in-line, wire-speed secure Web gateway featuring powerful anti-spyware, application level controls, and URL filtering. eSafe also controls spam and inspects SMTP and POP3 traffic though a proactive email security gateway.

Siemens Launches OpenScape Unified Communications Server to Deliver Communications Applications on a Unified Software-based PlatformInnovative New Approach Enables Integrated Deployment of Voice, Unified Communications, and Video Applications Across the Whole Enterprise

BOCA RATON, Fla., March 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Siemens Communications, Inc. today announced a significant step forward in its ongoing transformation into a software-oriented company with the launch of an innovative new unified communications software platform, OpenScape(R) Unified Communications (UC) Server. OpenScape UC Server is designed to remove the artificial legacy barriers between today's traditionally separate voice, video and unified communications systems to enable a comprehensive suite of UC applications. This suite initially includes OpenScape Voice Application (HiPath 8000 V3.1 R2, enterprise grade voice and IP least cost routing), OpenScape Video (integrated HD, desktop and client video conferencing) and OpenScape UC Application V3 (role-based UC).

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20070904/SIEMENSLOGO )

OpenScape UC Server can operate in virtually any existing IT or telephony environment, including IP telephony or legacy PBX telephony environments from Siemens or any other vendor - a key proof-point of Siemens' Open Communications positioning. Installation is easy and affordable, with highly practical options that do not require expensive or complex proprietary technology stacks.

OpenScape UC Server software is the foundation for the company's new unified communications suite and is a new product offering available for sale starting April 30, 2008. The OpenScape UC Server enables presence, administration, session control and other shared services for the current and planned family of OpenScape UC suite of applications, which are designed to enable easy growth and expansion. New modular capabilities are enabled by simply activating the desired license keys on a user-by-user basis.

Siemens believes that voice remains the most natural and effective form of human communications and has built OpenScape UC Server from the ground up as an open, SIP-based, software IT communications and UC application foundation with shared web-services components that leverage the company's OpenSOA architecture. The existing HiPath(R) 8000 and HiPath OpenExchange applications (OpenScape Voice) have been redesigned to run natively on the OpenScape UC Server for enterprise voice and IP least cost routing. The OpenScape UC suite of applications operate in multi-vendor environments and integrate with complementary offerings including IBM Sametime, Microsoft Office Communication Server and various others.

OpenScape UC Server will be available in three versions. The Medium Edition (ME) configuration is a single server solution with optional redundancy for up to 1,000 users. The Large Edition (LE) is a multi-server configuration for up to 100,000 users (with full UC functionality for up to 20,000 users and basic UC functionality for up to 100,000 users). The Hosted Edition (HE) contains additional application components to support the unique requirements of service providers and hosting organizations.

Siemens is also introducing a new, redesigned version of its OpenScape UC Application as one of the licensable offerings for the Siemens OpenScape UC Server. The enhanced OpenScape UC Application V3 can now be deployed on virtually any telephony or IT environment, works with any vendor's IP or legacy telephony platform, and integrates with nearly any IT and IM environment. With its modular, role-based packaging, OpenScape UC Application now offers a range of user-centric deployment options with a seamless upgrade path within the portfolio depending on enterprise needs. From the single-user Personal edition to Enterprise and Developer editions, scalability to as many as 20,000 concurrent users is possible. Built on the standards-based OpenSOA framework, OpenScape UC Application allows deep business process integration into virtually any existing line of business application to provide rich communications embedded business processes (CEBP).

OpenScape Video, a new portfolio offering also launched today, is the industry's first single-vendor, unified video conferencing solution integrating high-definition (HD) video, desktop PC video, voice and presence into a single powerful communication environment. OpenScape Video can be integrated with the OpenScape UC Server enabling video and voice endpoints to easily participate in the same conference calls and use the same directory and call numbering plans. The video conferencing solution also functions on a standalone basis, offering enterprises an easy migration to HD Video over IP. The new OpenScape Video portfolio includes three HD systems and a PC soft client.

"With the introduction of OpenScape Unified Communications Server, we have reached a significant milestone in our transition from a traditional VoIP manufacturer to a top global software and services company focused on a new era in the enterprise communications market," said Eve Aretakis, CEO, Siemens Communications, Inc. "Simply put, OpenScape UC Server is the easiest, most affordable and flexible way to introduce full UC into any existing telephony or IT environment."

Unified video conferencing brings everyone in the organization onto the same communication and collaboration infrastructure, so that the benefits of video communication can be expanded beyond the few conference rooms and users that are equipped by most traditional solutions.

OpenScape Video, when deployed with the OpenScape Unified Communications (UC) Server, also announced by Siemens today, enables video and voice endpoints to easily participate in the same conference calls and use the same directory and call numbering plans. By integrating video end-points with voice via the OpenScape UC Server, video conference calls can now be initiated based on presence information with a simple click on the desktop client. As part of Siemens' Open Communications approach, OpenScape Video is designed to operate in any existing IT or telephony environment.

"The OpenScape UC Server enables any IP telephony infrastructure to take advantage of the single powerful collaboration environment it creates," said Brian Collie, Senior Vice President of Emerging Businesses for Siemens Communications. "When combined with the superior HD video capabilities of OpenScape Video, users also get the best unified HD video experience at a fraction of the cost of more elaborate, yet isolated, video conferencing solutions"

The new OpenScape Video portfolio includes three HD systems and a PC soft client. VHD 600 includes an HD camera, a CD-quality conference phone and a codec that can bridge up to six parties on a video conference call. VHD 400 includes the same components as the VHD 600, but for bridging four parties, and VHD 100 is a single, point-to-point solution to enable one-to-one calls or for the user to join a conference hosted on a VHD 600, VHD 400 or a third-party video bridge. The OpenScape UC application desktop client is a video-enabled soft client.

OpenScape Video is the only end-to-end solution that delivers an optimized HD video stream along with superior CD quality voice, to each individual HD-enabled video endpoint. Participants can customize their video display and will always experience the best video quality for their available bandwidth.

"HD and video is revolutionizing the way we communicate -- in the home, on the Web, on mobile devices and now in the enterprise," added Collie. "With OpenScape Video, all enterprise users can now participate in video communications from any SIP endpoint, and it is as easy to use and reliable as a phone call."

OpenScape Video offers enterprises an easy migration to HD video over IP to help cut productivity robbing travel and the associated costs while providing an enhanced collaboration environment. OpenScape Video is also interoperable with video endpoints from any vendor, so that enterprises can maximize their existing investments.

Pricing and Availability

OpenScape Video will be available at the end of April, 2008, with prices starting at $8,999 for a VHD100 system. Siemens global professional services organization will enable companies to rely on a single vendor to plan and install their video conferencing solutions around the world.
