<p>SYBASE iANYWHERE NEW MOBILE SECURITY CAPABILITIES ADDRESS GROWING CONCERNS<br />
OVER MALWARE, HACKERS AND VIRUSES</p>
<p>First Mobile Device Management Vendor to offer Antivirus and Firewall<br />
Protection for Handhelds as Part of Comprehensive Mobility Suite</p>
<p>Dublin, CA -- June 23, 2008 -- Sybase iAnywhere today announced that it has<br />
expanded its mobile security portfolio to include handheld antivirus and<br />
firewall capabilities. Sybase Information Anywhere Suite's Afaria<br />
management and security solution will be enhanced with antivirus and<br />
firewall technology, addressing growing concern over an increase in<br />
malware, viruses, hackers and spam targeting handheld devices. These new<br />
security components, combined with Afaria's award-winning mobile device<br />
authentication and encryption technology, provide complete protection for<br />
Windows Mobile, Symbian and Blackberry mobile devices from viruses, data<br />
compromise, hackers and the effects of mobile device loss or theft.</p>
<p>"By now offering handheld antivirus and firewall protection as a part of<br />
our managed security portfolio, Sybase iAnywhere is responding to customer<br />
demand for broader security capabilities from a single, strategic mobility<br />
vendor," said Joe Owen, vice president of engineering, Sybase iAnywhere.<br />
"Customers benefit from being able to manage all security policies from a<br />
single console, and can be assured of interoperability among the security<br />
technologies on their workers' handheld devices."</p>
<p>"The tremendous growth in adoption of converged mobile devices (a.k.a.<br />
smart phones) occurring among business professionals will inevitably bring<br />
with it a rise in the number of attacks and in the sophistication of<br />
viruses and other malware specifically targeting these devices. IT<br />
organizations need to be proactive in protecting their information and<br />
systems from attack," said Sean Ryan, Research Analyst, Mobile Enterprise,<br />
IDC. "Enterprises should consider mobile antivirus and firewall protection,<br />
for all enterprise supported mobile operating systems, as part of a<br />
holistic mobility security offering that puts IT in central control of all<br />
mobile devices and information."</p>
<p>Sybase iAnywhere extends its lead in the mobile device management and<br />
security market with technology built specifically to address the unique<br />
battery, processor and screen size of handheld devices, rather than<br />
retrofitting desktop solutions.</p>
<p>Key Features Include:</p>
<p>Afaria Antivirus Manager</p>
<p>* Comprehensive antivirus protection with automatic signature file updates,<br />
assuring up-to-date protection</p>
<p>* Real-time virus detection on any file received</p>
<p>* Based on heuristic technology -- first behavior-based security solution<br />
targeting mobile devices. Afaria provides this added protection effectively<br />
without sacrificing device performance</p>
<p>Afaria Firewall Manager</p>
<p>* IP based firewall protection -- puts IT administrators in control with<br />
black list or white list filtering of inbound and outbound communications.<br />
This allows a company to "lock down" use of the device for authorized<br />
business communications only and/or protect the device from possible<br />
infection through typical web-surfing.</p>
<p>* SMS and call filtering -- allows administrators to minimize mobile spam<br />
by establishing a customized blacklist to block incoming SMS, MMS and/or<br />
calls from selected contacts and unknown users. An end user can even<br />
actively manage this from his device to block unwanted spam or phone calls.</p>
<p>Availability</p>
<p>The new Afaria antivirus and firewall protection capabilities will be<br />
available by the end of June 2008. For more information, please visit:<br />
