V-ONE Extends Secure Citrix® Thin-Client Computing

Windows® CE Among Platforms Protected by V-ONE's SmartGate® VPN Using Strong Authentication, Exportable Encryption And Digital Certificate Support

GERMANTOWN, MARYLAND, September 8
V-ONE Corporation (Nasdaq: VONE), a market leader in client/server Virtual Private Networks (VPN), today announced the extension of its SmartGate VPN product to support Citrix Systems, Inc.’s (Nasdaq: CTXS) MetaFrame™ and WINFRAM® server-based computing software. Citrix is recognized as a market leader in server-based computing software (over 15 million clients and 350,000 servers deployed) which gives organizations the flexibility and independence to rapidly access the latest enterprise applications. SmartGate offers the industry’s only VPN solution for Windows CE, a platform supported by Citrix MetaFrame and Independent Computing Architecture (ICA). This complements the security features in Citrix, giving users a higher level of data security available for sensitive business applications even if the device is connected through wireless (or wireline) media via Windows CE.

Using SmartGate, Citrix users identify themselves to the network through both mutual and two-factor authentication. Entry of a single access code by the user is all that is required to turn conventional Citrix application access into SmartGate VPN-secured application access. The fine-grained access control of SmartGate tightly manages which applications each user can utilize via Citrix MetaFrame or WINFRAM, while the entire session is protected by "export anywhere" Triple DES (Digital Encryption Standard) encryption. V-ONE’s patented On-Line Registration offers the industry’s fastest and easiest client deployment in addition to SmartGate’s support for digital certificates such as Entrust® PKI software from Entrust Technologies (Nasdaq: ENTU.)

"V-ONE adds industry-leading VPN security to the thin-client community with our support for Citrix MetaFrame and WINFRAM," said David D. Dawson, chairman and CEO of V-ONE Corporation. "SmartGate VPN’s distinctive capabilities such as support for digital certificates give Citrix users very real security advantages not otherwise available. Support for Citrix further illustrates SmartGate’s versatility and positions us well regarding the rapidly-expanding popularity of Windows CE and the resurgence of server-based computing."

"Citrix customers are looking for VPN solutions that are compatible with Citrix MetaFrame and WINFRAM server-based computing software," said Barry Davis, vice president of corporate alliances for Citrix. "V-ONE’s SmartGate solution complements the security features in Citrix MetaFrame and WINFRAM and offers a compelling secure business solution, particularly for Windows CE environments."

"As the leading consulting integrator for both Citrix and V-ONE, we know firsthand the outstanding synergy these two unique products will offer our enterprise customers," said Peter Ghostine, President & CTO of Emergent Technologies. "This synergy can prove to be more strategic for our online server-based application outsourcing service which will be rolled out later this year."

V-ONE’s SmartGate VPN runs on a variety of platforms, including Windows® NT and Windows CE from Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT), HP-UX from Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HWP), Solaris and Trusted Solaris from Sun Microsystems (Nasdaq: SUNW) BSD UNIX and Linux. SmartGate features an open architecture that perfectly complements any network firewall, including products from BorderWare, Check Point Software Technologies (Nasdaq: CHKPF), AXENT Technologies (Nasdaq: AXNT), Network Associates (Nasdaq: NETA), IBM (NYSE: IBM) and Cisco (Nasdaq: CSCO).

V-ONE also produces Instant Extranet Server™ (IXS), which enables organizations of virtually any size to immediately benefit from secure business communication over the Internet. IXS is based on a hardened version of Linux v6.0 from Red Hat (Nasdaq: RHAT) and automatically installs with seamlessly integrated VPN security from V-ONE, providing software for public and private Web servers, a secure e-mail server and public and private FTP servers, in less than 30 minutes.
