SSH COMMUNICATIONS SECURITY RECEIVES A SIGNIFICANT REPEAT ORDER FOR UNIVERSAL SSH KEY MANAGER™ SERVICES FROM A MAJOR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION

Helsinki, 2013-12-12 16:15 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

A major financial institution has placed a significant order for additional
Universal SSH Key Manager™ cybersecurity services. The order expands a
successful project implemented during 2013. Contract value for this new order
for services is approximately EUR 0.8 million (USD 1.1M). The revenue will be
recognized during first quarter 2014.

A typical SSH key remediation project includes securing IT systems from
advanced malware attacks, insider threats, and APT (Advanced Persistent Threat)
attacks arising from unmanaged cryptographic keys, including e.g.:

-- moving user authentication keys to protected locations, to prevent insider
attacks;
-- removing keys that are no longer needed, to effect proper termination of
access;
-- changing all keys so that copied keys cease to work, to eliminate existing
backdoors; and
-- continuous monitoring and enforcement of proper approvals.

Additionally, setting up new SSH keys or other trust relationships is typically
automated to save costs and improve security.

Universal SSH Key Manager™ software helps organizations of all sizes to manage
their cryptographic keys and access to large IT environments. The product is
unique in being able to simultaneously manage, deploy, audit and rotate user
authentication keys for large scale SSH environments.
