Deepnines to exhibit at the sun government executive partner forum

DALLAS, TEXAS - DeepNines(TM) Technologies, a leading enterprise network security company and sponsor at the Sun Government Forum will demonstrate the Sleuth9 Security System. The forum will allow attendees to learn about the integrated, secure network computing solutions available from DeepNines and Sun. The Forum will be held on November 11, 12, and 13, 2003.

The Sleuth9(TM) Security System is a fully integrated, best of breed intrusion prevention and anti-virus software solution that sits in front of the router and instantly stops DoS, DDoS, port scans, and propagating attacks like Trojan horses, viruses and worms from entering or leaving a network. Sleuth9 evaluates 100% of the network traffic, both ingress and egress, at the packet level to determine what network traffic is valid and what is malicious. With Sleuth9, intrusion prevention and anti-virus updates are automatic, providing superior protection while saving a significant amount of time and resources.

Media or analysts interested in scheduling a briefing with DeepNines executives should contact Jim O'Gara at jogara@itsonmessage.com or 972-931-3444.
