Milford, CT - March 19, 2007 Perimeter eSecurity, the only provider of complete eSecurity on demand, announced today the launch of a powerful new suite of Identity Protection Services. Perimeter is making this suite of services available at a 33% discount until the end of April

"Fifty nine million Phishing emails are sent out worldwide each day, 90% of which are targeted at financial institutions," said Kevin Prince, CSO of Perimeter eSecurity. "Attacks are becoming increasingly personal because hackers will go to any length to convince end users that an imitation email or website is real. They will even use your security vendor or a federal organization as 'bait.' Fraudulent phishing and pharming sites need to be taken down immediately to thwart further attacks and damage. Our Identity Protection Services average a 3-hour take-down time for phishing and pharming sites in contrast to a nearly 6-day industry average."

CounterPhishSM is a 24x7 monitoring and quick reaction service designed to discover, validate and shut down phishing attacks fast. Service provides the client with the ability to identify potential phishing attacks and provides a full audit trail through Perimeter's online portal facility. Pharming Shield monitors critical systems 24x7 and detects when unauthorized modifications are made to a website that could mean that it has been compromised. Pharming Shield alerts customers if unauthorized changes are made to their DNS servers, web sites, or SSL digital certificates and quickly resolves any compromises found.

Prince said that "Perimeter's Identity Protection Service suite defends the reputation of our financial services clients with a systematic process that is easy to follow. Like all of our on demand services, these services are priced at an affordable monthly subscription rate. By adopting these services today, our clients can save a great deal in operational and incident management expenses down the road."

CounterPhishSM continuously scans millions of SPAM emails and monitors DNS registrations for early detection. Perimeter reports Phishing URLs to the Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) and other authorities and blocks browser access to phishing sites. Perimeter's CounterPhishSM 24x7 service stands ready to initiate a "take down" procedure anywhere in the world. Pharming Shield monitors customers' web site pages, SSL certificates and DNS servers for unauthorized changes every 2 minutes. The service provides a real-time certification to display on customers' websites, indicating that they are protected by Pharming Shield. Real-time portal records incidents for audit compliance, or insurance claims.
