Trustix Launches Managed Security Services

OSLO, Norway, June 27, 2001 - Trustix today launched its new Managed Security
Services, enabling organizations to secure their IT networks as a service.

The Managed Security Services Provisioning from Trustix is based on Trustix'
own Linux based security technology, such as the XSentry firewall.

The Managed Security Services from Trustix are available first to customers
in
the Norwegian market. Trustix will make the services available in other 
markets through partnerships with service providers in other markets.

"We decided to outsource management of our network security because of cost
concerns and the complexity of our network at many locations around 
the globe," says Kristin Selvaag, Director of IT at Mobile Media.

"When we were looking for a security service provider,Trustix was a natural
choice for us because the high level of service and performance they deliver
through their Linux software technologies and their new Managed Security
Services," Selvaag continues.

"We believe that enterprises increasingly will want to secure their IT 
networks by outsourcing security management to a service provider," says
Trustix CEO Håvard Wollan. "We have therefore launched our new Managed
Network
Security services, and these will be provided directly by Trustix and by our
partners in international markets," Wollan continues.

Trustix has developed a security service provisioning infrastructure which
enables partners and other service providers to provide Trustix Managed
Security Services in fast growing markets.
