Business Wire, August 4, 2005

ATLANTA -- Reflex Security, Inc., a leader in network intrusion prevention and unified threat management solutions, announced that Gilbarco selected the Reflex IPS(TM) to protect its network. Gilbarco is one of the largest suppliers in the world of fully integrated point-of-sale systems to the retail petroleum industry.

Gilbarco selected the Reflex IPS to secure critical internal and external network locations and virtual private network connections from remote locations against network attacks at their Greensboro, North Carolina headquarters. Owned by Danaher Corporation, Gilbarco has manufacturing and research and development centers in the U.S., Germany, Italy, UK, Argentina, Brazil, China and Australia.

"We needed an intrusion prevention solution that proactively blocked network attacks rather than a reactive IDS solution and Reflex Security best fit our needs," stated Bill Phillips, Senior Security Coordinator, Gilbarco.

After an extensive evaluation of competitive solutions, Gilbarco selected the Reflex IPS because of its ease of use, comprehensive detection and prevention technology and reliability. "We were most impressed with the centralized management capabilities and selected the Reflex IPS because it is an enterprise class intrusion prevention solution that is truly best-of-breed," said Rick Poston, Senior Systems Engineer, Gilbarco.

Reflex IPS(TM) in conjunction with the Reflex Command Center combines a powerful, centralized configuration and management console, comprehensive reporting tools, real-time threat protection and ease-of-use in a unified solution. Scalable up to thousands of sensors, the Reflex Command Center and the Reflex IPS provide effortless enterprise security for businesses of all sizes. The Reflex Security disk-on-a-chip technology delivers improved reliability over traditional hard-drive based security solutions.

"We are pleased that Gilbarco selected the Reflex IPS solution to secure its network," said CEO, Jim Watson. "The Reflex IPS is ideal for Gilbarco as their global network required a scalable, enterprise security solution capable of protecting the network at remote locations with centralized management and reporting."
