SOMERSET, N.J., United States - March 10, 2003 - Marking the first phase of its expansion into the Asia and Pacific Rim, Netilla® Networks, Inc., a leading provider of secure sockets layer (SSL) virtual private network (VPN) solutions for secure Web-based access to any business application, today announced the appointment of OGA SynCom Co., Ltd. as its distributor in Thailand.

As one of the leading I.T. security products distributors in Thailand, OGA SynCom will distribute the Netilla Security Platform to its network of Thai systems integrators and resellers. These VARs can now offer their customers the industry's premier solution for Web-based secure remote access to centralized applications.

"We look forward to working closely with OGA SynCom, a trusted and well-established name in the Thai technology industry, to build the market for our secure, clientless SSL VPN solution," said Reggie Best, president and chief executive of Netilla Networks. "We've mapped an aggressive plan for expansion into the Asia/Pacific market, and this new relationship with OGA SynCom represents the first phase. We predict the same strong demand for our SSL VPN products in this region as in our established U.S. and European markets."

"Netilla Networks has developed one of the most flexible and functional SSL VPN products available anywhere, and we're proud to be working with them as their Thai distributor," said Khun Wisuit Tassanaiam, managing director/CEO of OGA SynCom. "Only the Netilla platform provides clientless Web-based access to nearly any corporate application, regardless of operating system. We see strong demand for Netilla by our extensive network of resellers and their customers."

One of the prime benefits of the Netilla Security Platform is its internationalization capabilities, which allow it to be used in virtually any country. The Netilla Security Platform supports Unicode UTF-8, a global standard (www.unicode.org) that assigns a unique number for every character in every language (including Chinese and Japanese), providing the framework for worldwide use of a program or application. In addition, many Netilla user interfaces (such as the log-in screen for remote users) can be easily customized for translation to support local languages, including those of Thailand.

OGA SynCom will market the Netilla Security Platform to its resellers for use in a variety of vertical-industry applications, including healthcare, manufacturing, financial services and government. Netilla provides two platforms - the Netilla Business Service Platform and the Netilla Enterprise Service Platform - that together meet the needs of small, medium and large business customers.

Netilla markets its products exclusively through the channel, which assures responsive support and service by a customer's local reseller or integrator. OGA SynCom will provide its integrator network with fast product delivery, in-depth product training and marketing support.

The Netilla Security Platform is a dedicated SSL VPN appliance that enables enterprises to provide remote workers with secure access to centralized corporate applications via just a Web browser. It marks a significant advance over existing virtual private networking (VPN) alternatives by eliminating the time and cost of installing VPN client or application software on the remote user's PC. Netilla provides seamless remote access to Windows, UNIX/Linux and even mainframe applications, with no modifications to central application servers.

A key differentiator of Netilla the platform is the Netilla SecureRealm Framework™, which allows the creation of distinct user realms, each of which can present various stages of authentication and authorization policies. Another key feature, the Netilla Software Upgrade GeNIE™, saves users and resellers time by automating the process of receiving future software upgrades.
