SOMERSET, N.J., May 14, 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 its newest Netilla Certified Solutions Provider: Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), a provider of information technology (IT), systems integration and eSolutions. SAIC, the nation's largest employee-owned research and engineering company, now can deliver Netilla Networks' secure remote access solution to its commercial and government customers worldwide.

SAIC is a $6.1 billion company employing more than 40,000 people in 150 cities worldwide. The addition of SAIC to Netilla's roster of solution providers dramatically impacts Netilla Networks' global reach. SAIC also strengthens Netilla Networks' vertical presence in the national security, federal government and telecommunications markets, as well as in industries related to IT outsourcing, healthcare and the environment.

"The opportunity to attract a leading solutions provider like SAIC, which delivers only best-of-breed solutions based on innovative applications of science and technology, has great significance for us," said Reggie Best, Netilla Networks CEO and president. "It demonstrates the strength of our solution and its marketability for global IT providers of security consulting and network implementation."

Netilla Security Platforms are secure remote networking appliances 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, a 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 implementations.

"The Netilla Security Platform allows us to equip our clients with real-time access to centralized software applications by remote users over a variety of Internet access types, such as cable, DSL and dialup, and is well suited for use over satellite connections," said Amy Todres, executive director of the Global Telecommunications Group, a division of SAIC.
