SAN MATEO, Calif.–February 23, 2004–Sana Security, Inc., a leader in host-based intrusion prevention software, will outline its "Defense-in-Depth" strategy through a series of announcements and presentations at the RSA® Conference 2004. Primary Response, Sana's enterprise-class host-based intrusion prevention solution, protects both standard and custom server applications on most platforms, including Windows 2003, and is the first and only protection for Microsoft Exchange and IIS 6.0.
Sana Security and NetScreen Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: NSCN) will team to discuss how an integrated network and host-based intrusion prevention solution is the foundation for a "Defense-in-Depth" strategy to defend against the increase in blended threats and attacks. The Security Showcase will feature Don Brooks, principal sales engineer, Sana Security, and Ed Lopez, consulting sales engineer, emerging technologies, NetScreen, in a discussion about why IPS is a necessary part of a defense-in-depth strategy; why IDS is not a viable element of this approach; why previous IPS solutions failed; and why next generation IPS solutions are able to offer the strongest protection of business-critical assets to ensure business continuity.
The Security Showcase: Wednesday, February 25, 4:30pm, Booth 141
Dr. Steven Hofmeyr, founder and chief scientist, Sana Security will share his expertise as part of three separate speaking engagements, addressing patch management and its alternatives, unique cyber defense techniques that emulate the human biosystem, and the advantages of adaptive intrusion prevention.

Adaptive Intrusion Protection
In addition to speaking on the benefits of a "Defense-in-Depth" strategy, Sana has challenged RSA attendees, dissatisfied with their intrusion detection solutions, to trade-up to Primary Response host-based intrusion prevention. The new promotion allows organizations to "trade-up" to Primary Response to save time, money, and resources, significantly reducing operational costs and increasing host integrity. When protected by Primary Response, enterprises can effectively secure business-critical applications from all attacks, including zero-day exploits and software vulnerabilities. This enables enterprise IT staff to test and roll-out software patches on a predictable schedule during non-invasive business hours.
The world's only host-based intrusion prevention solution based upon the principles of the human immune system, Primary Response scales to protect thousands of mission critical servers, applications and operating systems from malicious code. The product adapts easily to legitimate system and application changes, detects aberrant behavior, and reduces false positive fire drills that overwhelm IT departments with useless data and non-urgent security alerts.
