(NASDAQ: RSAS), the most trusted name in e-security™, as part of the RSA Secured™ Partner Program. The companies have teamed to support interoperability between Ensure's XyLoc™ wireless PC security solution and RSA SecurID® authentication technology. Ensure's XyLoc is also RSA Secured RSA Keon Ready. Ensure will be demonstrating its XyLoc wireless security this week at the RSA Conference, April 9-11, 2001, San Francisco, CA, Moscone Convention Center, Ensure Booth #2131 and Pod #8 in the RSA Partner Pavilion.

As part of the program, Ensure's XyLoc wireless security solution has been awarded "RSA Secured RSA SecurID Ready" certification signaling its compatibility with RSA Security's authentication technology. The RSA Secured certification lets organizations know that XyLoc is compatible with RSA Security's market-leading security products and technologies.

"It's great to be expanding our partnership with RSA Security," said George Brostoff, co-founder and president of Ensure Technologies. "It's a natural fit to combine the RSA SecurID two-factor authentication solution with our XyLoc wireless personalization and security solution. XyLoc's 'walk-away' security and personalization capabilities are excellent complements to the RSA SecurID authentication technology. With this strategic partnership, we're really expanding the scope of our protection by reaching deeper into sensitive networked information assets."

"We are pleased to expand Ensure's membership in the RSA Secured Partner Program," said Robert Pritchard, vice president of corporate and partner development at RSA Security.

XyLoc is a patented computer security and personalization solution that prevents unauthorized access to confidential company data, and simultaneously makes access to network services and business applications more convenient for authorized employees. XyLoc enables the computer to know automatically and effortlessly who is requesting access to its resources, which delivers a level of personalization and convenience previously unavailable.

XyLoc's patented full-time access control technology protects sensitive data when it is most vulnerable: after logon, when the authorized user steps away from the PC for any reason. Suited for a variety of scalable applications including healthcare and financial services, XyLoc is proximity-activated and completely "hands-free," requiring no user interaction. XyLoc also simplifies access to PKI and protects digital certificates stored on PCs, helping to prevent unauthorized e-commerce transactions.
