Business Wire, June 20, 2005

NFR Security, Inc.

What:       The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) released a
            mandate requiring Federal agencies to include a detailed
            report on the strength of their privacy programs in their
            annual Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA)
            reports.  FISMA was created as Title III to the
            E-Government Act and requires federal agencies to develop,
            document and implement an agency-wide information security
            program.  The OMB mandate requires that Executive Branch
            agencies plan for security, ensure that appropriate
            officials are assigned security responsibility,
            periodically review the security controls in their
            information systems and authorize the systems processing
            prior to operations.

            NFR Security, the leader in Real-Time Threat
            Protection(TM), and CSCI, a highly specialized systems
            integration and services firm, are sponsoring the first in
            a series of FISMA Web Seminars designed to help government
            agencies better understand how their organizations can
            become FISMA compliant.  Mark Williamson, Chief Technology
            Officer (CTO) and co-founder of Conquest Security, will
            speak on how agencies can better use the resources and
            standards available to meet FISMA requirements and obtain
            a higher compliancy grading.

Who:        NFR Security, Inc.
            CSCI
            Speaker:  Mark Williamson, Conquest Security
