Xceedium GateKeeper(TM) Selected by E*TRADE FINANCIAL

Xceedium GateKeeper Proactively Monitors Activity and Strictly Enforces Technical
User Containment to Authorized Areas

JERSEY CITY, N.J., Feb 12, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — Xceedium, a premier
provider of solutions that enforce security policy and validate compliance for
technical users, today announced that E*TRADE FINANCIAL Corp. has chosen the
Xceedium GateKeeper to enhance and automate its security policy for technical
users — while implementing and validating controls that meet compliance
mandates. GateKeeper is expected to play a fundamental role in automating the
controls E*TRADE has in place to protect and compartmentalize its infrastructure.

The Xceedium GateKeeper provides the ability to contain technical users to
authorized areas while enhancing operational efficiency. Xceedium’s
patent-pending LeapFrog Prevention(TM) technology works at the socket layer to
contain these users to authorized areas while working with powerful access tools
(including command line). Additionally, E*TRADE will use the Xceedium LeapFrog
Prevention technology for its Citrix Presentation Server(TM) (PS-XenApp) to
augment the high levels of security controls in Citrix PS, preventing technical
users from gaining unauthorized access to systems and becoming threats to the
critical infrastructure. The Xceedium GateKeeper cost-effectively enables
monitoring of all user activity, provides real-time alerts for violations, and
delivers the ability to produce audit reports in accordance with such compliance
regulations as PCI, FISMA, GLBA, SOX, HIPAA and BASEL II.

“E*TRADE FINANCIAL is a technology leader with some of the most stringent
security requirements in the financial services industry,” said Cheryl Traverse,
President and CEO at Xceedium. “We are extremely pleased that the company has
selected the Xceedium GateKeeper solution to implement, automate and validate
controls for their technical users.”
