CodeMeter ExpressCard module used for Digital Rights Management (DRM) will<br />
be made available in the following quarter. CodeMeter was introduced last<br />
year and represents Wibu-Systems' latest technology for protection of<br />
intellectual property assets.</p>
<p>"This year's CeBIT is a great opportunity to join the arena for ExpressCard<br />
compliant products with CodeMeter", said Oliver Winzenried, CEO and<br />
co-founder of Wibu-Systems AG. "CodeMeter security products will perfectly<br />
fit with the new defined small form factor and will provide to the user<br />
even better performance and ease of use through the ExpressCard Standard<br />
and products certified by the ExpressCard Compliance Program. We believe in<br />
this new market requiring removable and high quality security for our DRM<br />
application solutions, protecting software and safeguarding personal data<br />
such as digital rights. The next generation of high performance desktops<br />
and laptops will enable new applications rendering to the user the mobility<br />
to go anywhere the card plugs in."</p>
<p>"Wibu-Systems is joining the long list of companies adopting ExpressCard<br />
technology as the newest platform for high-performance functionality," said<br />
Brad Saunders, chairman of PCMCIA. "Their new solution, which provides a<br />
strong security token for a variety of DRM solutions is addressing a key<br />
niche in the portable and secure storage solutions market. Wibu-Systems<br />
recognizes that ExpressCard performance and form factors meet the<br />
requirements for high-capacity flash storage. Solutions such as that<br />
offered by Wibu-Systems will help foster the fast arrival of ExpressCard<br />
applications to the home entertainment market."</p>
<p>Wibu-Systems has also announced at CeBIT the release of a new member of the<br />
CodeMeter family, a CM-Stick with a Giga Byte of storage capacity. High end<br />
protected flash memory with the inclusion of rights management systems will<br />
be part of a future product roadmap for ExpressCard CM-modules.</p>
<p>Strong security as defined by AES and ECC industrial encryption standards<br />
is supported by the CodeMeter-Stick. It is the ideal and innovative tool<br />
for license management for multiple software vendors and provides a large<br />
device storage to keep the private user data including licenses, credit<br />
accounts and other personal data separated from less trusted environments.</p>
<p>Wibu-Systems has been shipping over one million security tokens, to mention<br />
security solutions such as Wibu-Key for software and license protection,<br />
SecuriKey for access control and SmartShelter for document protection. The<br />
scope of Wibu-Key products covers, besides USB and other standard<br />
interfaces, the PC Card(tm) interface. Wibu-Systems has been a PCMCIA<br />
member since 1993 and is now looking forward to underline its commitment to<br />
ExpressCard compliant products. Wibu-Systems headquartered in Germany, has<br />
international representation with offices in Seattle and Shanghai, from<br />
where it serves the US and Chinese customer base, and distributors.</p>
<p>About ExpressCard Technology<br />
ExpressCard technology (<a href="http://www.expresscard.org" title="www.expresscard.org">www.expresscard.org</a>) supports the addition of flash<br />
memory cards, wired and wireless communications hardware, security devices,<br />
and emerging applications by simply inserting a module into a notebook,<br />
desktop or other compliant system. ExpressCard technology supports<br />
sealed-box expandability in both desktop and notebook systems in a form<br />
factor that is roughly half the size of today's PC Card module but with<br />
improved performance. In addition, ExpressCard technology supports hot<br />
plug-n-play and auto-configuration. More than 95 percent of all notebook<br />
computers use PC Card technology for expansion. Dell, HP, IBM, Intel, Lexar<br />
Media, Microsoft, SCM Microsystems and Texas Instruments are among those<br />
supporting development of the new standard under the PCMCIA umbrella. For<br />
