LAS VEGAS and SOMERSET, N.J., May 7, 2002

Netilla Networks, Inc., (www.netilla.com), the networking services company that supplies secure remote access to applications, files and data over the Internet, today announced the general availability of the Netilla Enterprise Service Platform (Netilla-ESP). The Netilla-ESP extends Netilla's offerings to scale to larger enterprises. The enterprise release further strengthens the company's position as an industry leader in Web-based, secure remote networking. Netilla Networks will demonstrate the Netilla-ESP at Booth #3034 at the 2002 Networld+Interop Exhibition this week in Las Vegas.

"The enterprise release of the Netilla Security Platform marks a significant milestone for our product offering," said Reggie Best, CEO and President of Netilla Networks. "The market has declared its need for fast to deploy, easy to manage, scalable and secure extranet solutions, and we have the perfect answer with an affordable product that excels in these key areas. More than 100 companies and solutions integrators are seeing the benefits of Netilla Networks' service platform, and I am delighted to introduce a new version that delivers specific functionality for larger-scale organizations."

The Netilla Security Platform is a secure remote networking appliance based on Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption and other Web technologies, that enables browser-based access to legacy Windows, UNIX/Linux, mainframe as well as native Web applications in the data center. Unlike software or middleware-based networking approaches that require extensive integration and significant ongoing maintenance, the Netilla Security Platform is a practical, quick-to-deploy and simple to manage solution that lowers the total cost of ownership of secure remote access deployments.

"In working closely with customers, our development team was able to enhance our product to suit the more stringent authentication requirements for industries involved with sensitive data and applications," said Ken Araujo, CTO of Netilla Networks. "Our suite of scalability enhancements and higher capacity platform allows larger companies to more economically expand their number of users while managing the administration of those users more effectively."

Beta customers such as Global Knowledge (www.globalknowledge.com) have already experienced Netilla Networks' ability to deliver secure, Web-based remote access to business-critical applications and data. The Netilla-ESP release provides a wide range of enterprise-level product improvements. The load balancing and fail-over functionalities included in the release provide increased availability for the mission-critical applications that larger enterprises depend on, providing higher reliability with heavier volume, and helping to keep the promise of anytime, anywhere remote access.

Security enhancements include greater application protection against both internal and external hackers, and stronger authentication security options. Starting with the Enterprise release, Netilla Networks is now an RSA Secured™ partner, utilizing RSA® SecurID® 2-factor authentication to further protect business-critical resources.
