Santa Clara, Calif. - October 16, 2000 - Fujitsu Systems Business of America (FSBA) has selected AppScan and AppShield from Sanctum, Inc. (Sanctum) as an application security solution. FSBA will start offering the application security solution to the company's customers in cooperation with Sanctum.

Network and Internet security is a key part of FSBA's core offering - Fujitsu's Advanced Networking Solutions (FANS™). FANS security solution is designed to address the increasing concern of security as any organization has become dependent on the Internet to run its day-to-day operations.

Unlike conventional technology consulting and integration services, security solutions must be provided only by information security professionals. Security is a part of integrated system solution, not a stand-alone solution. FANS security solution includes security analysis and planning, implementation, and continuous support. FANS security solution also includes managed security services where FSBA provides end-to-end security solutions allowing customers to focus on their own businesses without making huge investments internally.

Firewalls are to protect networks, and Sanctum's AppScan and AppShield are to compliment firewall technologies by providing measures to protect applications. AppShield protects from any web application manipulation while AppScan can show you where your applications are vulnerable and recommend how to fix them. As more and more businesses take place over the Internet, securing the applications is a critical part of e-business. Almost on daily basis, news of another vandalized web site and stolen customer information is reported. Sanctum's solution addresses application security and is uniquely positioned in the industry.

"As a leading network solution provider, security is on our highest priority list. FSBA is dedicated to providing comprehensive security solutions to our customers. We are very excited to have an opportunity to work with Sanctum providing application securities." states Steve Beecher, VP of FANS Operations. "By incorporating Sanctum's solution, we are able to provide real integrated security solutions to our customers."
